re: Accessibility Checking Software
Does anyone have experience with Ramp Ascend? and if so, would you
please share them? Thanks in advance...
"Dr. Jim Thatcher, world-renowned author, speaker and web
accessibility expert has given Ramp Ascend 6.0 the highest accolade
in the industry. In his newest book, Web Compliance: Web
Accessibility and Regulatory Compliance, he states, "An important
aspect of carrying out these tests was the way the tool developers
reacted. All were supportive and responsive, and that was very
reassuring. Of course, some were more responsive than others. Two
(companies) stand out because not only were they helpful, but they
also made significant changes in their products in response to this
process. Deque (Ramp Ascend) made major improvements in their
accessibility checking tools to end up in first place. Ramp went
through two versions during this review process, and its current
winning score of 38 out of 40 is for the newest version, Ramp Ascend
6.0."
