• buggy and overpriced

  JeJoSteJuly 24, 2010

  Pros

  I didn't like anything about this product, it's too overloaded and a waste of developer time.

  Cons

  too many useless features and propietary xml engine makes it non standard, registry is loaded with their software even after uninstall

  Summary

  there are many other better xml editors than this one that are much cheaper, easier to use, and even free.

• One of the must have tools for any developer!

  jerrysheehanAugust 3, 2007

  Pros

  Everything I need to work with my xml documents is in this one tool! I don't even have to leave my .Net environment since they also provide a free plug-in! This tool saved me a lot of time and I was able to generate much needed documentation to show my manager!

  Cons

  spycomponentsSeptember 12, 2006

  Pros

  spycomponents offers PlugIns for XMLSpy to add more value to the application: <p> <p>ValidatorBuddy: Get access to the most popular schema validators directly in XMLSpy. <p> <p>File Commander PRO: Useful file functionalities like a file explorer, automatic reopening of documents, notes and more. <p> <p>Just search on the net for spycomponents...

• The Industry Standard

  kewlceoMarch 15, 2006

  Pros

  XMLSpy is the de facto XML development environment for professionals, so if you are designing payware products on a team or independently, you're probably already using it. For those wanting to learn more about XML and those developing freeware solutions, you'll probably want to pass.

  Cons

  The price can only be justified by those making money in this development environment.

• Very $$$$$

  evil_cheeseDecember 14, 2005

  Pros

  Helpfull when coding in xml

  Cons

  Very Expensive for not much features. <p>Better to just use a free program from sourceforge which has the same features. <p>This is not very helpful for Students studying Xml.

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  I already have the new version. Great new XSLT/XPATH 2.0 capabilities. If you are doing anything with XML, you NEED XMLSpy.
