A few years ago, when we acquired Foundation, we saw the opportunity to really expand business development and workflow management. And as we continue to sell and deploy and get users on Foundation and see how they use it, we recognize that if we have more of that ecosystem, the experience just gets better and so even a couple of years ago, it would have been ideal for Litera to be all in on Microsoft, but unfortunately Gary wasn\u2019t ready or looking for an opportunity. When the business was available and they were interested in talking to potential partners, we jumped at it. We\u2019ve been having some ongoing reviews of our current ecosystem and obviously in the last two years, Microsoft has become even more compelling. We didn\u2019t want to compete head-to-head with Microsoft, we want to leverage everything that they have in their ecosystem.

But now we\u2019re getting access to the Litera broader portfolio and the portfolios really complement each other, so we\u2019ve got a much broader portfolio now to take to these very large enterprises. Litera builds and buys, but we\u2019ve always just built. We can accelerate quite a bit by now being part of that broader, bigger business. The commitment to Microsoft doesn\u2019t change, in fact as Avaneesh said, it\u2019s even more so. I think it\u2019s really beneficial to Microsoft because we\u2019ve got a much bigger business now, which is going to be very Microsoft focused. We\u2019re still legally focused, and again we\u2019re very similar in that respect; really focusing on law and legal and now large law globally. We\u2019ve been stretching out into Australia and beyond but again, we\u2019ve got a springboard to do that with Litera\u2019s brand and resources, so it just accelerates our strategy. It\u2019s a really good fit from a product perspective, from a market perspective, geographical perspective and cultural perspective, and that\u2019s important to both Avaneesh and I that there\u2019s that cultural fit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h6 aria-level=\"1\"><em><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Why is it a good product fit?\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/h6>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">AM:\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u201cSo<span data-contrast=\"none\"> we\u2019ve been, as a product business, developing a viewpoint of how to make an impact on partners and managing partners of law firms, and to do that we felt like Outlook is the place to go in. Peppermint\u2019s been on the same trajectory; building a really strong product called Connect that resides in Outlook and draws data out from their ecosystem back to the partners and users. So for us, it accelerates our opportunity to move data and bring it out at the right place at the right time. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:0,&quot;335551620&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:300}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u201cGary and I as leaders believe that the teams can put together really strong integrations quickly and that will show the market pretty quickly why this came together and why it makes sense.

And so, we can bridge the gap from the start through to completion of a matter and harness the experience that matters back into the ecosystem, putting it all under one visual layer. I think it\u2019s pretty compelling and the more data we can put into Foundation, the better it is in the long run. So understanding how you interact with clients, how you interact with prospects, and storing all that, harnessing it for future work, I think that is what partners and managing partners and chairs of law firms really want to uncover.

We know that if you collaborate, you\u2019re pinging SharePoint and so being able to protect, govern and maximize that is priority number one.\u2019 The long term view of DMS is ever evolving. But today I think there\u2019s a real strong story around how do you give someone the opportunity to work in SharePoint and iManage at the same time and give and give it a unified workflow, and that\u2019s where we\u2019re at today.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">GY: <\/span><\/b>\u201cOu<span data-contrast=\"none\">r strategy today is, although we\u2019ve been working with Microsoft on this next gen DMS, we integrate with iManage, we integrate with NetDocuments, and obviously we have our own SharePoint offering.\u00a0Ultimately, it is about that experience and connection and whether that user is reaching into a document in iManage or reaching into a document in SharePoint or NetDocs it doesn\u2019t matter, to some extent.
