Thousands of customers worldwide rely on TextConverter for fast, accurate data extraction
Here’s what our customers have to say about TextConverter
“Having been a long time user of Monarch, I was skeptical that there could be better software available for performing complex data analysis. After using TextConverter for a while, I continue to be amazed at its data extraction and report building capabilities. It’s ease of use in building templates that can extract data correctly from reports with non-standard layouts has to be seen to be believed.
"In addition, the level of support SiMX provides their customers after purchasing TextConverter to help them learn the product while using the customer’s actual data is impressive in today’s world of all too common poor customer service experiences.

"We have used this tool to manage the complex intercompany accounts receivable and payable with excellent result and highly recommend someone to adopt this software if it needs to manage huge amount of unstructured data.”

"We have been a customer of SiMX for many years. We use both their TextConverter product as well as their services to build custom applications. For example, we use their solutions to find online press coverage of our clients on a daily basis. Using SiMX saves us time, money and makes the process much more accurate than our old manual methods. Our analysis has shown their solutions paid for themselves within the initial 90 days of use.
"As a vendor, SiMX is very responsive and has a high degree of integrity. We consider them an important partner."

"TextConverter more than paid for itself on the very first project we used it on. In fact, it made the project possible when it otherwise probably wouldn't have materialized. Although I have been designing database applications for almost 20 years, I'm just learning MySQL and PHP.
"My first project is a fairly complex one which includes importing into MySQL several flat files with almost 4 million records each. TextConverter's comprehensive user interface greatly simplifies that task. Saved conversion templates make subsequent imports a snap - all we have to do is select the new source file and pick a new name for the destination MySQL database - nothing could be easier. TextConverter more than paid for itself on the very first project we used it on. In fact, it made the project possible when it otherwise probably wouldn't have materialized.
"That's not to say that we didn't have an issue or two along the way, but when we did, the support from SiMX was very responsive and effective. A great product and tremendous support, too! What more could you ask for?“
