Benefits for Novell Customers
The acquisition of SiteScape demonstrates the firm commitment Novell has to the technologies included in Novell Teaming + Conferencing. And it provides opportunities to further integrate those technologies with other Novell solutions, such as GroupWise. Technology ownership will also streamline development efforts, since product innovations will be delivered by a single organization. The acquisition also gives Novell greater freedom to offer licensing programs and promotions that meet the needs of its partners and customers. Finally, it opens the door for Novell to directly offer Telephony and Advanced Workflow add-on modules that previously were only available from SiteScape.
