DavKit Reviews in 2026

Audience

Development teams and ISVs building Java (Spring Boot or Grails) web applications with document management needs, legal, insurance, property, HR and other document-heavy industries.

About DavKit

DavKit adds one-click Microsoft Office editing to Java web applications. Users open Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents stored inside your Spring Boot or Grails app - database blobs, object storage or files - edit them in real desktop Office, and save changes straight back, with locking to prevent conflicts. No document server to run, no browser-editor fidelity compromises, no download/edit/re-upload workflow.

DavKit implements Office-aware WebDAV for you: Office's discovery probes, locking, MS-OFBA and Basic authentication, and expiring signed URLs. Integration is a Spring Boot starter or Grails plugin from Maven Central plus one storage provider class; your app keeps its own access rules and documents never leave it. Ideal for document-heavy systems - legal, insurance, property, HR - where users edit templates, contracts and reports daily. Verified against real Word on Windows and macOS. Apache 2.0 open source integrations; commercial core with free evaluation.

Spring Boot

Spring Boot makes it easy to create stand-alone, production-grade Spring based Applications that you can "just run". We take an opinionated view of the Spring platform and third-party libraries so you can get started with minimum fuss. Most Spring Boot applications need minimal Spring configuration. Provide production-ready features such as metrics, health checks, and externalized configuration. Provide opinionated 'starter' dependencies to simplify your build configuration. Automatically configure Spring and 3rd party libraries whenever possible.

Spring Cloud Data Flow

Microservice-based streaming and batch data processing for Cloud Foundry and Kubernetes. Spring Cloud Data Flow provides tools to create complex topologies for streaming and batch data pipelines. The data pipelines consist of Spring Boot apps, built using the Spring Cloud Stream or Spring Cloud Task microservice frameworks. Spring Cloud Data Flow supports a range of data processing use cases, from ETL to import/export, event streaming, and predictive analytics. The Spring Cloud Data Flow server uses Spring Cloud Deployer, to deploy data pipelines made of Spring Cloud Stream or Spring Cloud Task applications onto modern platforms such as Cloud Foundry and Kubernetes. A selection of pre-built stream and task/batch starter apps for various data integration and processing scenarios facilitate learning and experimentation. Custom stream and task applications, targeting different middleware or data services, can be built using the familiar Spring Boot style programming model.
