Don't know much about eRoom - but there is the magic phrase 'collaborate in
|
|
real-time'... Groove really has people running scared. Wonder if any users
|
|
actually /benefit/ from collaborating in real-time.

Content-management vendor Documentum said late Thursday it plans to acquire
|
|
privately held e-Room Technologies in a deal worth about $100 million.
|
|
|
|
Documentum will issue approximately 7.7 million shares of its common stock
|
|
and pay about $12.6 million in cash for all of the outstanding shares of
|
|
eRoom.
|
|
|
|
Documentum makes a platform for enterprise-wide content management. ERoom
|
|
makes tools for enterprise collaboration. Its customers include Airbus,
|
|
Bausch & Lomb, Ford Motor Co., and Sony.
|
|
|
|
Documentum announced plans this summer to deliver a new Collaboration
|
|
Edition of its content-management suite. ERoom was already integrating its
|
|
tools to the Documentum platform, making an acquisition an easy target,
|
|
according to Documentum president and CEO Dave DeWalt.
|
|
|
|
With the upcoming joint product, customers will be able to collaborate in
|
|
real-time via virtual workspaces, sharing schedules, resources, and even
|
|
jointly creating content.
|
|
|
|
Content creation and management has always been a collaborative task, but
|
|
workflow has usually been delivered via a Web browser interface or even
|
|
simple e-mail -- and rarely in real-time.
|
|
|
|
For now, Documentum will sell the eRoom platform and its own
|
|
content-management system through combined sales channels. Further
|
|
integration is planned down the line, the companies said.
