Veridocs Announces Availability of XMLdocs Beta Version

Veridocs Announces Availability of XMLdocs Beta Version 
Veridocs, a provider of XML software, consulting and development
services, today announced that XMLdocs Beta Version is available free
for a limited time at http://my.xmldocs.com/register. XMLdocs is a
Web-based system for creating powerful, user-friendly XML content
management solutions. 
"XMLdocs is the perfect solution for organizations that have previously
found XML content authoring and management solutions too expensive or
too complex for non-technical staff," says Veridocs CEO Nat Dunn. "We
invite companies of all sizes, and in all industries, to size up
XMLdocs' benefits during this free trial period."
With XMLdocs, organizations can create XML document templates for
everything from press releases and product descriptions to
knowledge-based articles and help documents. Using these templates,
non-technical users write XML documents in XMLdoc's intuitive XML word
processor. Documents can then be exported for publication on a Web site
or elsewhere through a simple Web Service.
"Through a simple and straightforward Web Service, XMLdocs makes it
quick and easy to build XML-based Web sites using ASP.NET," said John
Montgomery, group product manager for the Developer and Platform
Evangelism Division at Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq: MSFT).
Seybold Senior Editor Mark Walter, who viewed a demonstration of the
product at XML 2002 in December, says that XMLdocs addresses a need in
the market for affordable XML content management solutions.
"Not every organization wants or needs a full-scale content management
system for their XML documents," says Walter. "XMLdocs, with its
check-in/check-out capabilities and companion XML editor, provides an
inexpensive entry point for XML-centric content management that has been
lacking in the marketplace."
