Founded in 1992, Altova is a commercial software development company with headquarters in Beverly, MA, USA and Vienna, Austria that produces integrated XML, database, UML, and data management software development tools.

Company

Altova was founded in 1992 as an XML development software company.[1] Its software is used by more than 4 million users[1] and more than 100,000 companies globally,[2] including 91% of all Fortune 500 companies.[3] The first product was XMLSpy, and around the year 2000, Altova began to develop new tools to augment XMLSpy and expand into new areas of software development.[2] The CEO and president of Altova is Alexander Falk,[4] who has explained that the development of Altova software has occurred through the inclusion of features most requested by the users of previous program incarnations.[5] Falk is also the inventor behind Altova's patents.[6]

Altova software attempts to increase the efficiency of program use in order to reduce the amount of time needed for users to learn database software[7] and other tasks such as query execution.[8] Examples of Altova software includes the XML editor XMLSpy,[9] and MapForce, a data mapping tool.[10][11] Altova has also added XBRL capable programs to its XML software line,[12] including development tools.[13] In addition, they have included Web Services Description Language,[14] project management and Unified Modeling Language capabilities to their software.[15] Most recently, the company has introduced a mobile development environment called MobileTogether for developing cross-platform enterprise mobile solutions.[16]
