“Our need to migrate a very large, complex, unstructured documentation set for multiple products from Robohelp 2019 to DITA was an impossible task for my small team. I very much appreciated your commitment to getting the migration right through repeated iterations, flexibility with requirements & your support for maintaining the context sensitive help.”

“Manual conversion of Word documents to DITA XML was an anguishing, expensive, and time-consuming effort for our department. Later, we were introduced to Stilo Migrate via a demo. Looking at the efficiency of the tool, our reaction was… WOW!”

“Working with Migrate has been successful, rewarding and fun for our Technical Writing Department. For the last 3 years we have used the Stilo tool to move our library of FrameMaker documents from DocBook to DITA XML format. Using Migrate allowed us to take our time and focus on priority documents that needed to be quickly moved into DITA and work on lower priority documents as time permitted.”

“Stilo has helped Microchip to migrate hundreds of FrameMaker and Word files to DITA. Our content has semiconductor specific information elements and our many product groups have followed the different templates to various degrees. Even with this complexity, Stilo’s Migrate portal has made it possible to migrate our content with a minimum of manual work. Stilo’s support is some of the best we have experienced.”

“We had 1000s of pages of corrupted content oil and gas manuals to migrate into .xml and a very small budget to work with. We used Stilo conversion services to migrate the content as a batch process. Their conversion server was powerful, customizable, and consistent. It enable us to finish the job quickly without impacting our budget. Helen was super helpful and easy to work with.”

“We used Migrate for a small project to convert an 800 page document from FrameMaker to DITA. The output we received was just beautiful – to get our content back so quickly and in such a polished state was fantastic, better than I ever thought possible.”

“Unlike conventional conversion services, Migrate gives technical authors hands-on control over how and when they convert their content. Documents can be converted in a matter of minutes, thus avoiding the traditional content freeze – a definite plus for ST which has a large quantity of content to convert.”

“Our biggest challenge was time. We could not give up our files for several weeks during the ongoing product development process. When we learned about Migrate, it sounded too good to be true. Our previous conversions were not only incredibly long and expensive, they required several back-and-forth iterations to finalize output, which made the process even longer. In the end, we still ended up with quite a bit of manual clean-up to do. With Migrate, we delivered files and had them returned within 2 days. We found a few small tweaks so we ran them through the automated tool again and we have a finished XML delivery that works well with our CMS. We couldn’t be more pleased.”

“We were only looking to convert a small number of user guides from Word format to DITA. We considered undertaking the conversion in-house, but the overall time and cost of performing the conversion would have been too high. So we approached Stilo to manage the conversion using their Migrate service. Stilo analyzed our documents, provided sample conversion results, and during a one hour review meeting, we were able to assess the output and specify our precise requirements. ”
