To stay competitive and open to innovations in the software development market, Programmer's opted to use Open XML Formats when developing its electronic invoicing application. The solution, now in a Release Candidate version, took seven months to build and will be released to the market in March or April 2008. The application was based on Microsoft Office Excel, a program that is familiar to most developers and does not require specific knowledge of a robust hardware framework. Programmer's enjoyed a 50 percent gain in productivity and improved utilization of financial and intellectual resources. Another major benefit was interoperability, since its application can be used on any system that runs Open XML.
