I wrote an article in the April 2005 issue of Computer in Libraries
where I discuss some of the differences between PTFS and CONTENTdm. PTFS
has hot linked it off of their site at www.ptfs.com/cil_reprint.pdf. You
can see the result of our using PTFS at soda.sou.edu. The PTFS
AchivalWare product is highly sophisticated and, I think, far superior
to searching full text documents.

Dear List,

I've been looking at the archives, and I see it's been awhile since
this subject has been discussed.  We are looking at alternatives for
content management systems, and right now the discussion is between
CONTENTdm and PTFS.

Please let me know about your experience with either of these
products--or others you may recommend--as a complete management system
from capturing images to Web display.

Thank you for your help.
