SA Compare is an application that compares two encyclopedias and generates a website displaying the results. All content, including HTML, XML, XSL and CSS files, are copied to a single folder, which can be published on your network, intranet, or the internet. Although SA Compare initially needs System Architect to create XML files to compare, when those files are created, SA Compare works as a stand-alone application.

In the browser, your comparison is arranged into two main frames. The browser tree on the left lets you navigate through diagrams or definitions, and view either all encyclopedia objects, or only those with differences among them. The compare output is displayed in tables on the right, which shows a property column, and one column each for the base and for the compare encyclopedias.
