SoftSolutions was a very early document management system (or DMS), which was used primarily by law firms. While the system was in (relatively) wide use, it was purchased by WordPerfect in 1994[1], which was subsequently purchased by Novell in 1995[2], and was incorporated into NetWare 4.1. SoftSolutions was subsequently terminated as a product, but its features were incorporated into Novell's GroupWise product[3].

SoftSolutions is one of many products which caused near apocalyptic fears at the end of the 20th century, due to its "Y2K" non-compliance.
