Description

This study presents and analyzes the results of key content management and document management (CM/DM) software issues from IDC's European Vertical Markets Survey 2007. More specifically, the study examines the European attitudes and plans for CM applications. The European Vertical Markets Survey 2007 was carried out in August/November 2007 among 2,077 companies with more than 20 employees in the U.K., France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. The study also provides essential guidance on key strategic priorities for CM/DM vendors.

Nearly 14% of European companies are looking to spend on a CM solution by building a new solution or enhancing the old one. "The IDC survey shows that demand for new CM solutions is particularly high in Germany, France, and Italy, and there is a great interest in looking to buy the CM/DM software functionality as a service," said Anne-Lise Wang, research vice president for IDC's European software research.
