Framemaker Competitive Comparisons ?
Are there any current sources (Adobe or not) comparing Frame to contemporary tech pubs solutions?
A casual google turns up some hits, none recent, and some seriously outdated (1999).
I'm particularly interested in FM vs. Arbortext, because I suspect that it may be being pitched to management, unbeknownst to the Tech Pubs Dept (a standard PTC tactic, I hear). Since AT is focused on a structured XML environment, this question perhaps belongs in the Structured forum, but we are presently an unstructured shop, and would need to assess any such transition from that point of view.
I see basically zero competitive info on the Adobe FM product pages. I'm wondering if this is due to lack of marketing resources to create the content, because the pro-FM story isn't necessarily compelling, or just because Adobe likes to pretend that there is no competition.
The recent, and so far lackluster "Dispelling some myths on FrameMaker" is also missing the mark. It so far reads like those "get the facts" web sites that politicians put up, filled with non-denial denials and providing hard-hitting answers to unasked questions.
