Non-notable company, mostly edited by 3 SPA-editors. None of the refs #1 - #10 provide independent detailed coverage about the company (refs are either self-sourced, passing mentions, or written by affiliated companies and customers). Refs #11 - #16 consist of listings and minor awards in trade magazines and PR platforms, this kind of branche-internal self adulation can't establish notablity. A Google search for better sources just showed more passing mentions and listings, but no promising in-depth sources. GermanJoe (talk) 10:57, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. No claim to notability, though not quite to CSD levels, I don't think. No significant coverage in reliable sources at all. — Alpha3031 (t • c) 12:33, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep.My take on this is that it should not be deleted. It is because that it has not been written in a promotional or a PR way. Secondly the references such as number 8 is from Xerox a leading and authentic source, 9 from Alfresco again a leading and authentic source, 11 & 12 from Showing results for Forrester a premier research company, number 14 from Pakistan's leading software awards, 15 from Xplor a not-for-profit association for technology users and suppliers in the digital document and customer communications industry and most importantly 16 and 17 from Gartner the leading and foremost authority on CCM — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ali Tahir Arshed (talk • contribs) 17:19, 19 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - definitely promotional (e.g. the awards section). Smallbones( smalltalk ) 01:41, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete: An article created by a new account, on a topic previously deleted by AfD in 2012. Inclusion in a Forrester and Gartner sector product review does not carry inherent notability for any company listed there. Nor do the industry awards or partner company pages referenced in the article provide notability in themselves. Clearly a company going about its business, but my searches are not finding evidence of notability; I see no reason to overturn the previous AfD consensus. AllyD (talk) 10:44, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
