Chicago, IL - Mar 25, 2008 - Open Text™ Corporation (NASDAQ: OTEX, TSX: OTC), a global leader in enterprise content management (ECM), today announced that RedDot, the Open Text Web Solutions Group, has released its Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Document Management Integration.
A successful Web strategy includes the ability to deliver content in context to all visitors. Whether the business initiatives encompass employee productivity on an intranet, customer or partner communication via a secure extranet, or managing localized sites for a strong global strategy; content is the crux of how these goals can be achieved. Organizations currently managing key information within Office SharePoint Server 2007 may also want to offer an experience driven Web environment that can increase the value of content within their document library.

"As part of our strategic leadership in bringing new solutions for the Microsoft platform to the market, we are pleased to add this integration enhancement to our portfolio of leading content management and delivery solutions," said Daniel Kraft, President, RedDot, the Open Text Web Solutions Group.

RedDot's integration solution embraces the SharePoint Server 2007 technology by offering value-added features and benefits that include:

• Cache a document from SharePoint Server 2007: When sharing a document online is important but permissions limit user access, RedDot can publish and retain a resident copy of the document presented to any online target, while maintaining the security and integrity of the SharePoint Server 2007 Library.
• Link a document from SharePoint Server 2007: Web content editors can address latency and stale Web content by dynamically accessing a document resident in SharePoint Server 2007. Users can link documents via the publishing system to any online target with secure and controlled access from any location.
• Access different document versions: Administrators can select a specific version of a document to publish with granularity to access previous or minor versions as well.
• Publish document attributes and metadata from SharePoint Server 2007: The descriptive attributes and metadata of a document help to drive personalization and a rich online user experience. Web content editors can publish document metadata to any online target for classification, search or interactive user insight.

As organizations look to invest in SharePoint Server 2007, this integration release will help them create, access and publish assets out to the web with ease, with the added benefit of being able to extend their technology investment. Open Text is a leader in delivering solutions that extend the Microsoft platform, and has been first to market with new capabilities that enhance SharePoint Server 2007. RedDot's document management integration continues a string of new solutions for SharePoint released by Open Text this year, including a new offering for the law firm market (URL) and the release of a development framework for the creation of case management applications in SharePoint (URL).
