Customer Reviews Come Flowing in as 'Diff Doc' Becomes A Main Stream Product!

"I found a product called Diff Doc that seems to work quite well for comparing Word documents against other Word documents! (I don't know how well it works with WordPerfect, though the documentation claims that it is supported). Like many of you, I was looking at DeltaView and was very upset at their inability to work with us on the pricing structure. Diff Doc can also run from command line, so integration with document managers is a snap (the author modified the code over a couple of hours for me to get it to work with WORLDOX Versioning. In return, I wrote his FAQ on WORLDOX integration). Download an evaluation copy at <https://www.softinterface.com/>." 'Diff Doc'  Troy Piersma excerpt from a TechnoLawyer Newsletter. 8/1/2003

"Just read the TechnoLawyer post from Troy Piersma. I concur completely.  I recently left a big firm which used DeltaView, and looked to get an equivalent program after being blown off by the DeltaView sales rep because I wasn't big enough for their policy. My Tabs and Practices master reseller, Judy Lassek, had also put me in WORLDOX, with which I am very pleased. She had heard of DiffDocs through her network, and I downloaded it and tried it out. I had a hard time comparing versions of the same document at first, but after receiving an update from DiffDocs, it has worked very well for me. My practice is transactional, requiring revising contracts regularly, and the program works great for doing that kind of comparison. I recommend that solos and others try it out, if for no other reason than the company is such a refreshing change from its competition! However, that wouldn't make much difference if the product itself weren't good."  Michael V. Mulchay, PLC  8/1/2003

SoftInterface Releases CompareFilesX and FindInFilesX, RADical Components

So what's new and "different" about SoftInterface's products?  At first glance SoftInterface's ActiveX/OCX creations are not terribly unique.  Comparing files and directories (CompareFilesX) or finding text within files (FindInFilesX) has been done by many a programmer in the past.  Heck, all of Microsoft’s 32 bit operating systems have Find utility that will optionally search for text.  So what makes SoftInterface think it can one up Bill?

Yes it’s true, they’ve been done before, however not in the format of a component.  By encapsulating these capabilities within an ActiveX it allows programmers to integrate this functionality into “their” end products.  This effectively will allow programmers to create their own input and output GUI’s (or non GUI) specific to the nature of “their” products.  Also, both CompareFilesX and FindInFilesX feature a separate thread of execution, effectively allowing for a smooth end user experience.  That is, the applications created with these components will allow the end users to continue working while the components are hard at work.  Asynchronous task management makes everyone more productive.

Considering the time it would take an average programmer to create a file comparator or text search facility, CompareFilesX and FindInFilesX are priced very reasonably.
