Launched in 2005,
Alfresco Software provides a leading open source enterprise content management (ECM) system, known for its modularity and scalability. The company was founded by John Newton, co-founder of document management company Documentum, and John Powell, who was the former COO of Business Objects.

employs roughly 110 people, and
is a member of the Open Source Channel Alliance.
