At work, we switched from Documentum to Reliance. It's browser based, has access controls, versioning, can supposedly convert formats, and can require quiz/acknowledgement that a user has read a specific document. With the sheer number of SOPs, forms, plans, etc that we have (try being in a lab environment without them, when a misstep could cost people's lives), it seems OK.
About the only legitimate complaint I have is that the interface implements its own tabs, which breaks my personal workflow of opening every new link in a tab when I need a lot of things open. No idea on cost, that's not my department.
