EIM is the key platform to enable that transformation, and our acquisition of Documentum and the Enterprise Content Division from DELL EMC significantly strengthens our market leading position.\u00a0We are pleased to welcome 5,000 marquee customers, 2,000 employees and over 300 partners to OpenText. Customers are responding very well to our Release 16 and this acquisition extends our leadership in content services, information archives, key verticals, and the Cloud.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">OpenText has made several notable acquisitions over the last 12 months, spending more than $2.35 billion in total.
