In the process, I have found a reference to the amount paid by Sword to acquire CTSpace in December 2007 – which, in view of the …

BuildOnline revisited

Reviewing 2007
Last year, I made five ‘Extranet Evolution’ 2007 predictions. Were they correct? 1.

More on Sword
After a blogging break over Christmas and New Year, I have started 2008 with another quick look at the Sword Group – which announced it had acquired construction collaboration technology vendor CTSpace on 21 December (see previous post). Reviewing the Sword Group’s offerings, it seems CTSpace will augment the parent’s existing enterprise content management (ECM) or document …
