XpressDox Docussembly™ frequently asked questions

You should be able to find answers to most of your technical questions on the site, but you still may want to find out more about XpressDox Docussembly™. This is the place to do it. If we don’t yet address your query here, please leave a comment and we’ll get on to it immediately.

What’s the payback period and ROI for XpressDox?

This is a bit like asking “How long is a piece of string?” ROI depends on what you use XpressDox for, and how well you make use of it. It is true that one of the reasons why document assembly is not adopted by many organizations is that they cannot accurately calculate the ROI.

However, XpressDox does pay for itself in many ways. For example, re-using a contract document just once could pay for XpressDox. And avoiding just one embarrassing mistake in a document will also instantly pay for XpressDox. Even in normal day-to-day usage, if XpressDox saves as little as 5 minutes a day per user, the system will pay for itself within 6 months. Back to top

Which versions of Microsoft® Office Word does XpressDox work with?

Why are there two versions of XpressDox?

Because Word 2003 and Word 2007 operate differently with regard to add-ins and toolbars, we’ve created a version of XpressDox specific to each. This will enable you to get the most out of XpressDox for the version of Word you use. Use these instructions to check which Microsoft® Office Word version you have. Back to top

What does “UNLICENSED COPY” mean?

XpressDox is not Freeware or Shareware. If you intend to use the product for commercial purposes, you need to pay for it. When you download the evaluation copy, it will show “UNLICENSED COPY” in the XpressDox title bar until the product is licensed. Back to top

What’s all the hubbub about Docussembly™?

Because we’re passionate about document assembly we found we were using this phrase a lot! So we invented a shorter version of it, which rolls off the tongue very much easier. And so the term Docussembly™ was coined.

Why not ‘docassembly’? Well, that’s just so impersonal. ‘Docassembly’ sounds like something that goes on in that office upstairs, the one with the strange-looking folk working in it.

But XpressDox is about you being empowered to meet your own document assembly needs. You are at the center of your document assembly requirements, and that’s why we put ‘U’ in your rightful place in XpressDox Docussembly™. Back to top
