This summary was created by AI, based on 22 opinions in the last 12 months.

Open Text (OTEX) has received a mixed bag of reviews from industry experts. Several commentators highlighted concerns regarding the company's growth prospects, citing a low organic growth rate of 1-2% and significant challenges posed by the rise of AI technologies, which may disrupt traditional software pricing models. Some experts described it as deeply undervalued with a low PE ratio of 5.2x and a 4% dividend yield, arguing that it could be a buying opportunity for long-term investors. However, many stressed the importance of cautious investment, pointing to a broken long-term pattern in its chart and advising against purchasing at current levels. The overall sentiment suggests that while it's a value stock, risks remain about its management, acquisition strategy, and ability to adapt to changing market conditions.

DON'T BUY
Not growing. Markets are tough. They are looking at making it a more efficient operation. A competitive environment and not sure they can grow their revenue.
PAST TOP PICK
(Past Top Pick April 18/05. Down 17%.) Made a wrong call on this one. It is attractive at the current level. One of the cheapest softwares you can find around. It has problems that he had underestimated. Didn't sell. Believes there is some potential here, but only for people who like risks.
WEAK BUY
Has had huge interests from customers because of Sarbanes-Oxley act. They have access to the e-mailing archiving side as well as content management. Looks like it's within 7% of a bottom. Model doesn't like it because of disappointments and negative earnings estimate revisions. Would buy a little if the market pulls back and then wait and see.
DON'T BUY
Had a strong niche of sharing documents between offices of the same franchise globally. That niche is now basically being built into networks. They are running the risk of becoming obsolete.
DON'T BUY
They did a great job finding a niche that was unserved as technology was really rolling out. Gradually standardization of technology has made the problem of sharing documents invisible.
TOP PICK
Troubles are not over, but at a good price to buy it back. The problem is not the company, but is the stock market and giving guidelines. One time they gave wrong guidelines and investors don't like this. At the current price, the stock has great potential.
DON'T BUY
Likes to Buy businesses for the long term with the goal of a stock worth more in 3 years than at present. This company has done a great job in filling a niche in terms of document sharing but that niche is closing off rapidly.
TOP PICK
Attractive at the current price. Could be a takeover target some day.
DON'T BUY
Recently stated that earnings would not be as expected because of some large contracts that had slipped in the most recent quarter. The stock ranks 500 out of 700 in his database.
DON'T BUY
Getting killed in the after-market. A huge profit warning. Downside as much as 35%. Missed revenue.
BUY
They are in the document management business. This is a huge issue for companies, archiving e-mails, retrieving them for legal puposes, managing work flow and document flow. This is a terrific growth area. We are in the early days of this industry, so it can be volatile. Relatively cheap.
BUY
Beat the street with their earnings. Has been some good research on it. Have good products. The sector has been under pressure in general. Worthy of being in a portfolio of tech stocks.
SELL
Despite repeated pretty good rallies in the market, the software group and NASDAQ has underperformed the rest of the market. This stock is seeing a de-acceleration in its revenue growth.
WEAK BUY
Rumours of an investigation by OSE, but would be suspicious of the source. Likes the business and the enterprise management space. Great cash generation. Good valuation in the tech sector.
BUY
Has gone through a lot of turmoil over the last year. The content management is doing very well and is a growing area because of all the regulations in the US. Good price. A lot of cash on the balance sheet.
