<title>Web Author vs. Content Fusion</title>
5+
<body>
6+
<p><b>Oxygen XML Web Author</b> is an online application that leverages the advanced authoring
7+
technology of <term>Oxygen XML Editor/Author</term> to bring XML editing and reviewing to
8+
mobile devices, as well as desktop systems, from anywhere you have internet access.</p>
9+
<p><b>Oxygen Content Fusion</b> is a flexible, intuitive collaboration solution designed to
10+
adapt to virtually any type of workflow that a collaborative team may use for their
11+
documentation review process. <b>Oxygen XML Web Author</b> is integrated into the <b>Content
12+
Fusion</b> interface as its online visual editor.</p>
13+
<p>Both products are designed to provide the ability to collaborate with other members of your
14+
team, from anywhere, and both have an adaptive and innovative user interface designed to allow
15+
you to interact with XML content in the most efficient and productive way possible.</p>
16+
<p>The following table briefly describes the differences between the two products:<table

<title>Collaboration Scenarios</title>
97+
<p>An organization can use both products to solve various collaboration scenarios. Here are
98+
just some example scenarios:</p>

102+
<dt>Collaboration Scenario: Support Team Corrects a Problem in Published Documentation
103+
Using Web Author</dt>
104+
<dd>
105+
<p>The support team notices a problem in the published documentation while offering
106+
support to a customer. </p>
107+
<p><b>Oxygen XML Web Author</b> can be integrated with a repository (for example,
108+
GitHub) and the output can be configured to include an <xref
109+
href="https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-waCustom/topics/webauthor-integrate-embedded-launch.html"
110+
format="html" scope="external">edit link</xref> and clicking that link would open
111+
the document in <b>Oxygen XML Web Author</b> where they can correct the problem
112+
directly in the source, precisely at the location of the problem, and while it is
113+
fresh in their mind. They could then commit the changes to the repository (for
114+
example, submit the changes as a <xref
115+
href="https://help.github.com/articles/about-pull-requests/" format="html"
116+
scope="external">Pull Request</xref> on GitHub) so that the documentation team can
117+
proofread the changes and easily merge them into their project.</p>

<dt>Collaboration Scenario: Documentation Team Collaborates with Subject Matter Expert
122+
To Create Content</dt>
123+
<dd>
124+
<p>The documentation team needs to collaborate with a subject matter expert during
125+
content creation. For example, they have questions, or want to see if they worded
126+
something correctly, or they want the SME to add content (such as a code
127+
snippet).</p>
128+
<p>The content author can use <b>Oxygen Content Fusion</b> to create a task with the
129+
documents attached, upload it, and then they can simply share a link to the task
130+
with the SME. The SME simply follows the link to access the review task in a browser
131+
and they use the web-based visual editor to proofread, add comments, and suggest
132+
changes. They can communicate with the content author directly in the <b>Content
133+
Fusion</b> interface, and when they are finished, the content author can easily
134+
merge the suggested changes back into the original documents in <term>Oxygen XML
135+
Editor/Author</term>.</p>
