Easier access to multiple PTC softwares like Isodraw, Creoparametric, and very nice syncing between CMS like windchill and offline workspaces. The element tagging is easier than other softwares. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The compatibility is not good as expected with other softwares like Adobe. Also the syncing is not great even with Trillion docs or Google workspace. UI can be more user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the capability of Arbortext to handle a large number of documents together. Creating DITA Maps and modules with the Arbortext editor is an easy task compared to other DITA-based authoring tools like TIM Infomanager, Framemaker, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is not much that I dislike except the user interface. There is a scope to improve the user interface of Arbortext Editor. Also, there are some instances where Arbortext Editor was stopped responding. It mainly happens while checking in or checking out large DITA Maps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a good tool for starters in DITA and structured documentation.very straight in to work. DTD creation is also simpler. Connectivity to PTC tools like Isodraw and creo is good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Very soft UI, not enough access to multiple options are lesser. Accessibility to CMS other than PTC is very bad. Customization of DTR is limited in HTML outputs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
