"We believe this Gartner report serves as tremendous validation for our document-as-application vision," said Jake Sorofman, senior vice president of marketing and business development for JustSystems. "We're blurring the line between traditional documents, which provide rich context, persistence and portability; and business applications, which provide live data and an interactive user experience. The result is a dynamic document that comes to life with diverse and distributed information sources that are always up to date."
Based on JustSystems’ XMetaL and xfy (pronounced “x-fie”) product lines, dynamic document capabilities have transformative potential for document-centric business processes in financial services, manufacturing, life sciences, and other industries where data constantly changes, and where working with out-of-date and out-of-context information carries a high price. In such environments, the JustSystems approach gives users a real-time, interactive, fully contextual view of their business.
