Hyperwave a challenger in EMEA web content management, says Meta Group

Hyperwave pleased with challenger status, looking to reinforce its position

August 18, 2004

Leading analyst METAGroup has positioned Hyperwave as a challenger in its METAspectrum™ Market Summary report on the EMEA web content management (WCM) marketplace. This is the first time Hyperwave has appeared in the WCM METAspectrum.

The report, based on data collected through December 1, 2003, reflects the difficulty in differentiating between WCM solutions. However, it also acknowledges that most of the challengers are focused on specialised WCM rather than Enterprise Content Management, although the latter is a key growth area according to META: "Global 2000 organisations seeking strategic solutions will increasingly view WCM as a part of their larger ECM strategy."

This finding is extremely encouraging to Hyperwave. "As our focus is on supporting and enabling collaborative Enterprise Content Management, we believe we are in a strong position within the market," says Terry Jordan, General Manager, Hyperwave UK,. "Our web content management solution is built on the same core platform as our other offerings – such as document management, collaboration, portals, and records management – which means we are able to offer customers a mature, integrated ECM suite."

"Because of this," Terry continues, "we’re optimistic that we will be able to build on this and other highly positive industry feedback, and reinforce our position in both the WCM and ECM market."
