Product Description

XaitPorter is a collaborative writing software that allows several people to produce documents such as tenders and proposals faster.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

XaitPorter enables fully automated documents with client information using pre-approved content. Content can either be copied from a master to tailor the information for the bid or it can be "linked" back to the master. The linking means that certain content can be updated once, and all live documents where this content is used will be updated at the same time. This enables global teams to have better control of content and produce documents more efficiently.

A key strength is complex proposals with multiple contributors involved. XaitPorter has a built-in workflow that enables teams to have complete control of the process from day one. In addition, XaitPorter automatically takes care of formatting, layout and numbering. XaitPorter can support really any size document.

And, being built on a database and the architecture of XaitPorter provides one of the most secure solutions in the market. Xait is also ISO27001 certified.

What do you like best about XaitPorter?

Several colleagues can work on the same project/document at the same time.

Possible to set up a workflow

Possible to create Project Templates (-> 80% of the project is completed, the only thing left is customization)

Possible to use metadata (Dynamic Text)

Several documents in the same project -> original offer, revised offer,...

Change layout templates ourselves.

Administrate Users ourselves.

The final PDF document looks very professional with the same font, font size, tables, body text,... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about XaitPorter?

Xait is not the best program/tool if we need to create an offer where the layout (the visual message) is more important.

The final PDF file is most of the time too big (we use a lot of pictures).

It takes a lot of time to export sections due to the size of the document/section.

Presentation mode/preview does not work optimal -> the preview doesn't show the same as the final PDF (I often export sections up to 40-50 times before I'm satisfied with the layout -> takes a lot of time to finalize an offer. Especially when changes in the bodytext has been done and all the pictures move to different places in the final PDF).

Not possible to change the size of pictures directly in Xait -> we have to download the pictures -> re-size them -> upload again.

Not flexible to place pictures where we want in the text.

Spelling check doesn't work optimal.

Separator sheets (skilleark) must be inserted in the exported PDF, not sure if we can enter them directly into Xait. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is XaitPorter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Several colleagues working together in the same project.

Benefits -> creating text library Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about XaitPorter?

The easiness on setting up tenders, creating the table of contents especially using images and being able to cross reference different sections also which saves time as it means you can use all ready written sections instead of starting from scratch. Compiling the finished submission is also really easy as it PDF's your submission too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about XaitPorter?

Once you create a project it doesnt go into order so when you're trying to find it this makes it difficult. Maybe if the projects were in date or alphabetical order? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is XaitPorter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Speeding up the process of compiling tendering documents which gives me and my team more time to review sections etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about XaitPorter?

As the title suggests, it works fantastic when it comes to report-writing. Not only it has the automatic recommender system, which offers the possible words for sentence completion/errors, but it also takes care of formatting both inline and overall. It suggests the text that goes well with the nature of the document and so works well both for report writing as well as preparing formal letters for the overall heads and managers. Talking about the software, it manages figures and tables well, and the best part lies in the real-time collaboration feature, which promotes teamwork as multiple colleagues work on the same document for better efficiency. So a great tool overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about XaitPorter?

I have a couple of concerns here. First of all, the features are offered mainly by LaTeX, a free Open source tool, but it becomes a headache using that for everyday writing, so we tried out this product. It saves a lot of time by recommending and bring math tools ready for us, but it still needs to add a lot of symbols/equations to make it worth the money spent. We also need a checker system for resumes for people we recruit, so I hope to get some help there with this product soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering XaitPorter:

I will recommend waiting for some time and let the company evolve for good as of now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is XaitPorter solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use it for everyday document preparation, and it certainly has its own benefits, may it be collaboration among users and manages the data well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about XaitPorter?

The best part about XaitPorter is that it never fails to win the user's heart when it comes to writing a report on an everyday basis. It learns and modifies the text generation part according to the usage of the person and comes in handy with all the essential tools in front of the user and appropriate suggestions that go hand in hand with the target of the whole writing. The support team is lovely and helps in the training part during shifting to this product. The dashboard and user interface are great. The new templates for applications and reports are pretty impressive, and I look forward to exploring and share more regarding the same. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about XaitPorter?

There are some basic features which need to be improved. The whole arrangement of projects and modifying the previous projects can be a cumbersome task . It has many options that seem scary for the first time. Moreover, one can't add image to texts and the whole inline support gets affected, which seems quite unmanagable at times. Like we shifted to this product to make things easy, but seems like this can be of great use only for textual applications and not interactive reports. But I believe soon they will come up with a solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering XaitPorter:

I think its quite a usage dependent, but it works amazing in general Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is XaitPorter solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use it daily, at least for keeping track of our own things, and sometimes it can help writing professional documents too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
