try alfresco on premise. you can start with the community version and then (pay and...) add some additional components to achieve compliance level your customer require. It requires a java container like tomcat, so you can give it a try even on windows platform, and is fully cmis capable. you can access the document and record repositories via a custom web interface, cmis browsers (libreoffice...), webdav or integrated ftp or smb servers.

I apologize for posting this item to the SL list, but I need professional information that I have not been able to find from unbiased (not vendor) sources. My institution seems to be dedicated to the use of applications for institutional management purposes (not research) from proprietary for-profit vendors (often licensed for high fees), particularly applications that only can be installed and run under a Microsoft environment. In most cases to date, we have been able to require compliance with ISO, IETF, W3C, and similar open standards to allow at least interfacing with open systems environments (such as SL). At present, there is a demand to move to a document management system, and a prime candidate appears to be Hyland OnBase. I have found: The OnBase software has been designed to run within a Microsoft Windows environment (http://www.hyland.com/en/product/deploying-onbase/on-premises.aspx) but have not been able to find details on two issues: 1. Real (not vendor advertised) compatibility with open systems, at least from the client applications, including any MacOS X clients; 2. Security compromises and issues, vital because it is likely that there will be direction that confidential personnel records will be moved to this system. Off list, any information or references will be appreciated. Again, my apologies for this posting. Yasha Karant
