Web & Enterprise Content

Gensoft defines a content management software vendor to be 'Enterprise' when "......they have strong channel partners, a presence in multiple geographies, consistent financial performance, broad platform support, good customer support, and dominate in one or more [content mangement] technologies or vertical markets. They have the ability to deliver a comprehensive ECM suite by owning all six core components and have proven enterprise scalability."

The core ECM components that Gensoft reviewed and considered relevant for inclusion as an ECM vendor were:

• Document management - check-in/checkout control, version control, security and library services for business documents
• Web Content Management - ability to remove the webmaster bottleneck, managing dynamic content and content authoring, general ease of use
• Records management - ability to comply with legal or regulatory purposes, long-term archiving and automation of retention and compliance policies such as admissibility
• Document capture and document imaging for capturing and managing paper documents - entire scanning process from paper to electronic format
• Document-centric collaboration for document sharing and supporting project teams - including permissions
• Workflow for supporting business processes and routing content, assigning work tasks and states, and creating audit trails of who did what, why, when and how

Maybe not surprisingly, the heavy emphasis placed by Gensoft year on year on being able to show strong capabilities in document management and related technologies (such as collaboration, workflow and records management) resulted in the DMS based solutions such as EMC (Documentum), IBM (Filenet), Autonomy (Interwoven (having purchased iManage), OpenText (with its own solution and Hummingbird), Oracle (Stellent) dominating the upper quadrant.

The problem with this definition is a lot of smaller cms vendors dont like it, as its excludes them. So you will find phrases like 'Enterprise Digital Asset Management System' or 'Enterprise Web Content Management System' being used to try to make sure the buzzword is included in their marketing material. Strictly speaking you would need to insert the word 'level' between enterprise and the type of content being managed to accurately reflect the solutions ability to serve larger environments

Its easy to undestand 'why' Gensoft created the cut off given the thousands of solutions there are out there - but by the same token its easy to understand why smaller vendors - who dont qualify for the Gensoft definition because they have e.g. only one product, or are only present in one or two geograhpical locations - take it upon themselves to apply the word 'Enterprise' to their products.

Realistically, if you are going to the market with the notion you simply need an 'enterprise solution' - you could end up paying enterprise prices when in fact you are actually looking for an enterprise level product in one of the core content management components. It would be prudent to make sure you yourself understand what you want before inviting a vendor to tell you what they think you should be hearing.

Its also worth highlighting that many of the ECM vendors are now made up of a melting pot of other companies. A number of analysts have highlighted on the difficulties this presents to the ECM suppliers - ranging from cultural to technical to geographical market penetration. Just because an ECM vendor has an ECM suite does not mean they are by any means fully integrated. Buyers also need to be aware that some products have been purchased to knock out competitors or secure the support and maintenance annual revenues with little or no intention of developing the solution (though they will happily continue to keep selling it to unsuspecting customers). Many purchased products are effectively in 'end of life' status. It would be prudent to check the twitter space and see what is being said about the acquired companies and their current customer perception of the future of their product.
