The latest addition to the Open Text ECM Suite features an intuitive social media application that gives users new ways of working productively together through the Web and mobile devices, while meeting security and compliance demands through integration with a company’s wider ECM system.

Open Text Social Media adds to Open Text’s collaboration products offered in the Open Text ECM Suite, providing a combination of document centric collaboration solutions and a new solution that connects people to people to content in social networks designed for the enterprise.

Open Text Social Media also provides native mobile applications for Apple iPhone and RIM BlackBerry devices initially, with additional device support planned.
