SoftSolutions

SoftSolutions was a very early document management system (or DMS), which was used primarily by law firms. While the system was in (relatively) wide use, it was purchased by WordPerfect in 1994,[http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m3311/is_n15_v29/ai_16127336// Novell also gains SoftSolutions Document Management in Word Perfect Deal] {{Archive url|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060623195236/http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m3311/is_n15_v29/ai_16127336//|date=2006-06-23}} which was subsequently purchased by Novell in 1995,[http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m3311/is_n15_v29/ai_16127336// The Novell/WordPerfect Merger] and was incorporated into NetWare 4.1. SoftSolutions was subsequently terminated as a product, but its features were incorporated into Novell's Group Wise product.[http://www.informationweek.com/672/72iugrp.htm;jsessionid=HXC2OGEQ4SWLFQE1GHRSKH4ATMY32JVN// Novell Updates GroupWise]{{Dead url|date=June 2024}}

SoftSolutions is one of many products which caused near apocalyptic fears at the end of the 20th century, due to its "Y2K" non-compliance.
