Microsoft Syntex includes a couple of premium taxonomy features.

Support for importing taxonomy term sets using W3C recommended SKOS-formatted enables possibilities to import term sets to SharePoint from other SKOS-supported systems.

The SKOS-formatted term set is imported on the Term store like csv-formatted term sets. A sample file can be downloaded from the Import new term set pane:

Another premium extension is the ability to push published content types to a hub and all associated sites. Content types are automatically added to lists and libraries, also libraries created after the settings are applied.
