Leaders in content management

Key advantages

CARA uses the most modern Java technology, thus working on any browser.
D2 uses ActiveX, limiting it to IE and some Firefox only. ActiveX is known to open up security vulnerabilities.

CARA works on four content management platforms, and growing.
D2 works only on Documentum.

Within the Documentum platform, CARA is a unified client interface to replace xCP, Records Manager, Webtop, DAMtop, CenterStage and TaskSpace.
D2 is only a replacement for Webtop.
