Business Wire, Oct 26, 2005

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- Stellent, Inc. (Nasdaq:STEL), a global provider of content management solutions, announced today it was positioned in the visionaries quadrant in Gartner, Inc.'s "Magic Quadrant for Financial Compliance Process Management (FCPM) Software, 2005"(1) report. Gartner (NYSE:IT) is the leading provider of research and analysis on the global information technology industry.

To be included in the FCPM report, vendors must support a minimum level of functionality for reporting, workflow for reviews and approvals, and support for documentation pertaining to internal controls. According to the report, those vendors named "visionaries" have a solid understanding of the market as demonstrated by domain expertise and responsiveness to their customers' expectations. They are actively executing against an aggressive product roadmap that expands support to additional regulatory and nonregulatory compliance needs.

"Gartner estimates that by 2008 new FCPM license spending will be $394 million," said Dan Ryan, executive vice president of marketing and business development for Stellent. "We feel Stellent is strongly positioned to capitalize on this growing market with our successful Sarbanes-Oxley-specific and other compliance offerings. We will continue to build upon our solid product suite to provide customers with the compliance functionality they require."

Recently, Stellent expanded its retention management capabilities to allow compliance and legal users to apply disposition and retention rules to any content item, not just records. In addition, customers are able to apply litigation or audit holds to content items that are non-records, preventing the accidental or intentional deletion of information organizations are required to retain for litigation or audits. This unified approach helps ensure old content is retained according to the customers' retention policies, reducing their liability. And, discovered content can be easily packaged and distributed by many mechanisms, including placement of information into a Stellent collaboration folder or extranet site, or printing or transferring it to other media.
