Leading Industry Analyst Firm, Butler Group, Validates Interwoven's ECM Vision, Strategy, Functionality, Partnerships, and Customer Base
SUNNYVALE, California - August 12, 2002 - Interwoven, Inc. (Nasdaq: IWOV), the leader in Enterprise Content Management (ECM), has been recognized for its ECM vision, broad range of technologies, strong partnerships and stellar customer base in a report issued recently by the Butler Group, Europe's leading independent IT Research and Advisory organization.
In the report, entitled "Interwoven - Why Content is Capital," the Butler Group offers an overview of Interwoven's vision of the collaborative enterprise, noting that the Interwoven tagline "Transforming Content into Capital" represents Interwoven's clear understanding of what the global enterprise is trying to achieve today. The analysis highlights Interwoven's broad range of market leading ECM technologies that address everything from application code and content management, content storage, collaborative business document management, and XML conversion, categorization, workflow, and distribution. Butler concludes that Interwoven is well positioned "to be one of two players that will come to dominate the market over the coming five years."
"Our strategy is validated by the Butler Group findings, and it is gratifying to see an ECM market analysis that is so closely aligned with Interwoven's core value proposition as well as the growing customer requirements for a complete, open enterprise content management solution," said John Van Siclen, president and CEO of Interwoven. "Interwoven is laser focused on addressing the collaborative content requirements of the global enterprise and continuing to deliver the industry's best solutions for our customers across all verticals."
Butler Validates the Vision
With a vision to meet the growing collaborative content management needs of companies worldwide, earlier this year Interwoven launched three new content applications targeting enterprise portals, collaborative document management and Web application management. The Interwoven Content Applications, comprised of TeamPortal software, TeamCode software, and TeamDoc software, is built on top of the award-winning Interwoven 5 ECM platform that includes TeamSite Content Management, MetaTagger Content Intelligence, and OpenDeploy Content Distribution software. Butler's analysis clearly supports Interwoven's drive to arm customers with best of breed solutions that will enable them to convert their many types of enterprise content located in disparate repositories into high-value knowledge capital.
