According to IDC study, the same four vendors that led the content management market two years ago still lead it today, although their individual rankings have changed.

The study, which presents vendor shares for over 50 worldwide content management vendors, reveals that EMC’s acquisition of Captiva catapulted the company into the top spot. FileNet, IBM, and Open Text rank second, third, and fourth, respectively. The study also finds that these top four vendors collectively account for over 37% of the total market, and the top ten players account for over 55%.

With the completion of today’s announced acquisition of FileNet by IBM, IBM is very likely to be the leader of content management software market.

Although the content management market has continued to consolidate, the study reveals that many organizations still lack content management systems or are relying on homegrown solutions that are ripe for replacement. IDC believes that the market is still in the early days of next-generation content applications, and cites ample opportunity for smaller, innovative players to grow at an accelerated rate. via Verivox
