XML VS XSLT_

As of 30 October 2026, XSLT is named by 553 companies and XML by 3,931; XML skews to companies under 200 people (47% vs 42%), XSLT to companies over 1,000 (39% vs 30%).

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: XML'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.

XML vs XSLT: questions

Which is more used, XML or XSLT?

By companies naming it in their own job postings, XML (3,931) 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 XML?

47% of XML companies have 2 to 200 employees, against 42% for XSLT. 30% of XML companies have over 1,000 employees, against 39% for XSLT.

Do companies run both?

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

Where do these numbers come from?
