What are you using for document management?

["Latella, Vincent" <VINCENT -dot- LATELLA -at- saic -dot- com>]

Having searched the Techwr-L Archives, it looks like there hasn't been a
thread on this in quite some time (assuming the archive search form
isn't busted). 

 

Anyway, I'd like to know what everyone's using / doing for document
management?  Are you using purpose-built software? Does your company
have an enterprise content management system like SharePoint or
Documentum? Does it work for you?  Any and all recommendations are
appreciated. 

 

(I work with a team of developers that has amassed a ridiculous amount
of documentation [technical specs, code snippets, requirements, user
guides, etc.] over the years, and we're looking to get a handle on all
of it.  We'd like version control, check-in/out, access control / group
or user provisioning, full-text searching, and a really, really easy,
no-nonsense interface.  Oh... and it's got to be cheap, too!   Our
company is very large, and other business units have used SharePoint and
Documentum.  Because our company already has licenses, we have access to
and have tried both for free.  Unfortunately, we didn't like SharePoint,
which appears to be a "jack of all trades, master of none," and
Documentum is slow and the full-text search capability isn't working
properly.)
