[ILUG-BOM] Document Management Systems

[jitendra]

Thanks Chirag.
Yes I have seen the demo.
I was also told about Alfresco being more scalable but a bit more complex.
Also that KT is said to be rudimentary in so far as capturing work flow is
concerned.
I wanted to consider using the same for academic institutions, typically
groups of institutions under a single authority.
Recently I have decided to check out the commercial version since I was so
far trying only the community one.
 Hence I wanted to get opinion of others.
