OTEX in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

Who it is priced against
The diary has not built a peer group for Open Text; the comparison the market draws is with IBM's enterprise content and data-management business, given the shared focus on governing corporate information.
