Digital haven't yet released product and are not due to until October (ish), so they haven't been doing a big push ... although the previews I have seen suggest that it is very impressive on the Workflow side (less so on DM) and therefore a direct challenger to OTEXF's market if it is priced right. (Mind you Eastman haven't released product either but it isn't stopping them going into accounts as if they had.) 80-20 seems to be a smallish operation, but I have come across them in competitive bids mainly in Europe and Asia, but increasingly in large multinational US accounts as well. Their product seems to be all DM and no workflow so I cant see it being a direct threat to OTEXF (unless a workflow vendor takes them out).
