MadCap Software Bridges Silos of Corporate Content with Latest Product Offerings

MadCap Software, Inc., the leader in multi-channel content authoring, management and publishing, backed by global investment firm Battery Ventures, is delivering on its vision to bridge silos of corporate content with today’s introduction of two new offerings: Publish to Syndicate in MadCap Flare 2024 and CCMS-Central Connector in MadCap IXIA CCMS 7.1.

Publish to Syndicate enables teams to collaborate on technical and learning content, as well as maximize content reuse. The new feature works by allowing users of MadCap Flare technical authoring  software  to seamlessly publish content directly to Xyleme Syndicate, an enterprise-level learning content management system (LCMS) within the MadCap Software product ecosystem.

CCMS-Central Connector serves as a bridge between structured content creation and cloud-based content management and delivery platforms. By connecting MadCap IXIA CCMS, an enterprise-class component content management system (CCMS), with the robust capabilities of MadCap Central, the integration tool streamlines workflows, enhances efficiency, and offers a unified destination for content delivery and management.

“At MadCap Software, we are on a mission to deliver end-to-end content management solutions that empower organizations to maximize ROI across the enterprise by breaking down content silos, fostering collaboration, and efficiently delivering content when and where it is needed,” said Anthony Olivier, MadCap Software founder and CEO. “Our newest product offerings are the first milestones in delivering on this vision. With Publish to Syndicate in MadCap Flare 2024, we’re bringing together the worlds of technical and learning content, while CCMS-Central Connector unites our MadCap IXIA CCMS 7.1 and MadCap Central platforms for content hosting, delivery and management. Together, these capabilities represent a paradigm shift in content management, offering unparalleled efficiency, integration and flexibility.”
