FileNET Buys eGrail
03-Apr-2002 --
CMS Watch report buyers will recall that we have been wondering just how long Web CMS vendor eGrail would stay

For eGrail, which had suffered from undercapitalized R&D efforts, the sale is clearly a boon. It remains
unclear, however, how much the present eGrail technical architecture dovetails with the rest of the FileNET
suite, and that should give current eGrail users some pause amid what appears otherwise to be very good
news...
