What do you dislike about Xfive?

Recommendations to others considering Xfive:

Ours was a rather unusual software development undertaking,and most other development companies that we had contacted before finding Xfive showed little interest in our specific technical objectives. Xfive stepped in and handled the challenge brilliantly. Right from the start the team demonstrated a confidence-inspiring willingness and ability to understand our unique needs, and the discovery process convinced us that Xfive was the team that would enable us to attain our goals. In addition, businesswise, Xfive were transparent, fair, and realistic: the cost estimates we received were reliable and allowed for confident budgeting on our side, which further encouraged us to work with Xfive. Our advice? Do not wait, and contact Xfive today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

A key goal of our project was to develop an open-source digital web-based application for the production of scholarly editions of historical documents. The editing application takes the output of a collation of multiple text witness files produced by the script CollateX and permits editors to select a main text, establish lemmas, determine if variants attested in witnesses are significant or insignificant, offer emendations, make multi-user collaborative comments, and output the result in a form suitable for the production of a critical edition, online or in print. It is for the development of this web application that we hired Xfive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
