Jesse:  I would say that Microsoft has Sharepoint (or at least they see it
as an ECM), and SAP has IXOS.  Near as I know, only Sun doesn't have
anything.

Subject: [RM] HP to acquire Tower Software

In case you hadn't seen this, HP has agreed to acquire Tower Software for
undisclosed terms. This leaves three major standalone ECM vendors:

Open Text

Vignette

Interwoven

 

And three major infrastructure players lacking a major ECM play:

Microsoft

Sun

SAP

 

Other possible suitors might include CA, Dell, Autonomy, or Symantec. 

 

It will be interesting to see how this shakes out with the other players
over the next 12-18 months.
