Since HP acquired Tower Software
almost a year ago, I thought it about time to review progress to date.
Well that and that fact that I typically eat Saturday breakfast with my
daughter Fiona at a diner called The Spa in Pepperell, MA - and (small world that it is)
so does one of our key contacts at HP. Oddly enough though we have
never actually met each other at The Spa despite us both being
regulars. I think there may be a parallel analogy with HP in the world
of ECM. For despite them being there and being an active part of it, I seldom seem to bump into them.

By Alan Pelz-Sharpe and Chris Harris-Jones Enterprise content management (ECM) has gained considerable credence in the market since its launch at AIIM AIIM 2001.
