"The communication ability of Project.co has been dramatically improved after integrating TinyMCE… TinyMCE works the way it’s supposed to every time, which is I think the most important thing. It's always good to know that you're using the best available tools."

Matt Byrom|Manager Director, Project.co

"One thing that has been great for us is the ability to insert data metrics. That was a big reason why we chose TinyMCE. These proposals are specific to each individual sales prospect, and they have a lot of dynamic data in terms of pricing and savings—all the different numbers that go into them. Having the ability to add and remove these dynamic fields has been key for us."

Mariya Nomanbhoy|COO, Sighten

"TinyMCE has allowed us to stand apart from our competition. We can now say that we have a solution that truly allows our users to customize how their content looks as easily as they would a Word document, but still keep our own branding."

Justin Witz|CTO & Co-Founder, Catapult

"I've worked with lots of different editors, but TinyMCE was the simplest to implement. The amount of functionality you get right out of the box would be foolhardy to try and recreate. TinyMCE solves lots of problems, and it's been trusted by the industry for longer than anything else that I know of."

Tim Craver|Development Manager, Allied Solutions
