JSON VS XSLT_

As of 30 October 2026, XSLT is named by 553 companies and JSON by 4,803; JSON skews to companies under 200 people (48% vs 42%), XSLT to companies over 1,000 (39% vs 28%).

As of 30 October 2026 · refreshed daily · counts move as websites, DNS and career sites are re-read.

The website-and-DNS footprint is not comparable between a marketing suite and a CRM: JSON's script and mail records show on hundreds of thousands of small sites, XSLT rarely leaves a trace outside its own apps. Compare on the job-posting numbers; use the footprint for reach.

How we know

Read from the source, not self-reported

Every number on this page can be traced to a page we crawled or a posting we read. Full methodology →

  • Job postingsRead hourly from career sites. A tool counts when the employer's own text names it as the team's system; both tools can count for one company.
  • Website and DNSScripts and embeds on the company's pages, plus SPF, DKIM, MX and CNAME records of its domain that point at the vendor.
  • SegmentsCountry, size and industry from the company profile built from its website.
  • Not a reviewNo ratings, prices or feature claims. For those, read the vendors.
FAQ

JSON vs XSLT: questions

Which is more used, JSON or XSLT?

By companies naming it in their own job postings, JSON (4,803) over XSLT (553). By website-and-DNS footprint, XSLT (0 vs 0), because its scripts and mail records sit on many small company sites.

Who chooses JSON?

48% of JSON companies have 2 to 200 employees, against 42% for XSLT. 28% of JSON companies have over 1,000 employees, against 39% for XSLT.

Do companies run both?

426 companies name both in their postings, usually JSON in marketing and XSLT in sales, or during a migration.

Where do these numbers come from?

From the employer's own text in job postings read hourly from career sites, and from scripts found on company websites in our crawl. No vendor data, no surveys.
