XaitPorter Reviews & Product Details

1. So simple to pick up and use - within 10 mins you are able to create a professional-looking proposal. If you use Word you can easily use XaitPorter 2. Standard look and feel to proposals - with the way XaitPorter is set-up all our proposals across the world look and feel the same 3. Document sharing is so simple. Multiple people can work on the same document at the same time without issues. 4. Document library - once we set up document libraries, creating a complex proposal is very easy - and having standard content across the company is fantastic. 5. Xait support - we have a dedicated contact point (not just a standard email address) who provides feedback very quickly and troubleshoot any issues we have. 6. Proposal templates - one template gives same look across the company which matches our corporate guidelines. If we ever need to make a change it will be automatically added to all our templates.

1. No dedicated App.... sometimes having the ability to comment, update and create proposals on an iPhone would be very useful... currently XaitPorter isn't set up for mobile phone usage (I think iPhones with bigger screens it can work). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Common library and good workflow management Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can’t believe it is not possible to create some way to make graphic manipulation more user friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To produce a high-quality bid required intense effort, but with XaitPorter we were able to achieve this goal easily and compiling several bids simultaneously is no longer a hassle. Easy access to information presented in previous bids. The library and search function provide us with easy access to previous information so we can cross-reference data and tailor responses for each document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would appreciate it if they resembled Excel SSO more as an option, but an automatic email alert to a user about password expiration would be a simple improvement. There is nothing I dislike, the system works perfectly for what I do. When an image or an attachment is uploaded, it would be very useful if the title of the attachment or image was provided instead of the title "attachment" or "fig".

Formatting! Not having to worry about formatting is to the me the biggest benefit of this software. The ability to work on the same document as other users and distribute the tasks is also beneficial and saves merging multiple documents / sections (as was done previously with word).

The only major disadvantage is that the final document is PDF and this PDF document cannot be saved as a "usable" word file. This limits us (as a Company) to sharing native documents with other offices who are not currently using XaitPorter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The increased and improved level of collaboration with colleagues who are working on the same document, from different country locations has exceeded initial expectations. Having fixed layout templates for the page set-up ensures the preparation of documents is far easier and does not involve the level of re-formatting experienced with Word. The ability to attach documents, no matter what their size, within a document saves a large amount of time previously expended compiling and formulating the final version of the document. The final product is of a much higher quality than could ever be produced under Word. As the document can be accessed from the cloud, the final document can be downloaded by a user in another country and printed off, rather than sending large email sizes or setting up a OneDrive or Dropbox file.

For me the biggest drawback is the functionality of Tables. If the ease with which tables could be edited/amended could be improved, this would improve the user experience. When a picture or attachment is uploaded, it would be very useful if the title of the attachment or picture were given instead of the "attachment" or "fig" title. It would make it easier to identify what had been uploaded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has an excellent interface, making it easy to produce more professional documents with fewer resources in less time, It also provides team leaders with better organisational and administrative controls to monitor progress and keep teams on track to meet their deadlines.

Managing many users can take time with initial registration, and password control can take some time when the company has a large number of users (we currently have over 700). SSO is an option, but an automatic e-mail alert to a user about expiring password would be a simple improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have all of our re-usable content and all of our finished proposals stored and easily searchable/accessible in Porter, which saves a TON of time. Admin-level users can see all activity of other users, preventing people from saying they've reviewed things when they actually haven't. Being able to control formatting from the back-end prevents rogue, non-branded formatting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest drawback to Porter is that it doesn't have some key functionality, found in Word, that would make it exponentially more useful. We are waiting for a "what you see is what you get" interface, so we don't have to keep exporting to see what the final product will look like and can move graphics, etc., and see how that affects the text.

The easiness of how the online system works for creating the project / tender and the easiness of being able to copy multiple sections, this saves time and ensures us to complete tenders within client deadlines. The PDF and compiling of the final submission, works efficiently and makes my job much easier when PDF and compiling large documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike, the system works perfect for what I do Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A document collaboration tool that allows multiple people work on the same document from anywhere in the world, from any device. Templates assure a standard company look and feel. Document version control, access control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Really nothing to dislike with Xait Porter! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

XaitPorter software has simplified the tendering compilation process and increased efficiency and productivity. To produce a high quality tender required an intense efforts but with XaitPorter we could achieve this target easily and compiling multiple tenders concurrently is no longer a hassle. As a Regional BD Support Team lead in Asia, the features of workflow assignment and status of each section have simplified my review process for each tender. Most important is the output quality is at the high standard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish the table and numbering features could be improved, eg: continues numbering function, insert figure in the table or in between of the numbering, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
