Software firm DocZone.com, Netherlands, has announced the forthcoming release of DocZone Lite, a new Software as a Service (SaaS) solution for creating, managing and publishing content.
The new DocZone Lite product is modeled as a complete end-to-end solution, bundled with many of the key features of the original DocZone suite, including browser-based XML authoring, workflow, and single-source publishing to PDF (using the embedded TopLeaf composition engine) and HTML help. The major difference with DocZone Lite is the open source Alfresco CMS platform at its core. This allows the primary DocZone features to be offered to users for a much lower cost. In addition, DocZone Lite is bundled with an XML schema, preconfigured workflows, and basic stylesheets for single source publishing. The product will become generally available in July 2008.
DocZone.com provides the industry's first 'Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)' XML content management platform, including XML authoring, content management, automated workflow, server-based translation memory, and single-source publishing. In addition, it also offers the industry's only guaranteed rapid deployment methodology to bring customers into production within 30 days.
