Why Autonomy Did It

Autonomy believes that this acquisition will enable them to provide their customers the "next generation unstructured information management software" and will strengthen their access to the worldwide legal and compliance industry that Interwoven has a strong presence within.

The combination of Autonomy's IDOL technology and Interwoven's suite of enterprise content management products will see the creation of a new set of technologies that will help reduce some of the manual effort now required for some of Interwoven's products.
