ClauseBase introduces advanced Text Compare and Bulk Compare options in ClauseBuddy.
Full disclosure: This review is written by ClauseBase, a vendor of legal drafting & reviewing software. It is part of a series of reviews in which we unveil how certain (competing) software packages work from a technical perspective, particularly those that themselves remain fairly silent on this subject. It is our intention to be honest in unveiling how everything works, stating both what's good and bad about the technical choices that were made by the vendor. However, as the respective vendors remain silent on technical details, the reviews are based on a combination of discussions with users, lawyers who attented demos, limited interactions we had ourselves, as well as knowledge we have ourselves about the various tradeoffs associated with the technologies being used. If you're the vendor of the product that's being reviewed, and you would spot mistakes, please let us know.
With the new Text Compare feature, available today in ClauseBuddy, users can now compare any combination of two DOCX-files, PDF-files, text selections or pasted text. This goes significantly beyond MS Word's built-in DOCX-to-DOCX comparison feature offers.
While the Text Compare feature offers two-way compares, the Bulk Compare feature offers the possibility to compare a single document (the "base document") towards many different documents at once.
