Hi everyone -
I'm among a group of state employees in South Carolina who are evaluating
various Web accessibility testing and validation tools, such as Bobby,
LIFT, HiSoftware... If we find a tool we like and that we can afford, we
may try to purchase a state-wide licence for the product for all state
agencies to use.
Question 1:
We would like to know if any other state is doing this too -
* evaluating Web accessibility testing and validation tools at the
state-wide level
* and either purchasing a state-wide licence for the product or making a
recommendation on software purchases to state agencies
If so, we'd be interested in knowing
* what process you are using to evaluate these software tools
* and what product(s) you ended up recommending or purchasing
* as well as what made you choose a particular product over another.
Question 2:
We would like to know what others think of the various Web accessibility
testing and validation tools available, both free (such as The Wave,...)
and fee-based (such as Bobby, LIFT, HiSoftware, etc....). What tools do
you use, and why? Have you had positive or negative experiences with the
companies selling these tools? Etc...
If anyone would rather not send your opinions to the list, you can send
them to me privately at <EMAIL REMOVED> .
Many thanks.
Wendy
