WeWebU Turns 10 and Gives out Presents: WeWebU OpenWorkdesk is Going Open Source

Press release from: WeWebU Software AG

(openPR) - Herzogenaurach, 03/26/2010 – WeWebU Software AG, maker of standard software for Enterprise Information Management (EIM), celebrates its 10th anniversary and, instead of receiving presents, announces to give away WeWebU OpenWorkdesk for free starting this summer.

Their engagement in the OASIS Technical Committee for Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) is so encouraging, that WeWebU creates a CMIS-based Open Source version of its OpenWorkdesk - a comprehensive suite of applications for Enterprise Content Management (ECM) with an intuitive Web 2.0 front-end. The Open Source edition will support all CMIS-enabled ECM platforms, e.g. Alfresco, and will be released in early July. A fully supported commercial version will also be available under subscription.

Going Open Source is another important step in WeWebU’s growth strategy. They have decided to adopt a Commercial Open Source business model in addition to the traditional license sale. Stefan Waldhauser, co-founder and CEO of WeWebU, is excited: “I think Commercial Open Source is a significant trend in the software industry. Since our foundation ten years ago, WeWebU has always been driven by technology and the power of innovation. A Commercial Open Source strategy fits perfectly to our OpenWorkdesk offering and the objective to deliver the best way to build Composite Content Applications.”

He expects that the existing Enterprise Edition of OpenWorkdesk including many additional functionalities for large installations and supporting all important IBM ECM repositories as well as the open standards JCR and CMIS will also benefit from this step: “The feedback from the community provided to our Open Source version will help us to include further cutting-edge features into our flagship product as well. I’m convinced that with this Commercial Open Source strategy we can go to market faster with a superior product portfolio at lower operational cost and sell more easily than ever before.”

The CMIS-based version of WeWebU OpenWorkdesk will be presented soon at various trade shows both in Europe and the US.
