Bio

Tony Byrne is the president of the Real Story Group. In 2001, Tony founded CMS Watch as a vendor-independent analyst firm that evaluates content technologies and publishes research comparing different solutions head-to-head. Over time, CMS Watch evolved into a multichannel research and advisory organization, spinning off similar product evaluation research in various areas of enterprise content management such as enterprise collaboration and social software. As a result of this natural evolution, in 2010 CMS Watch became the Real Story Group. Tony is the original author of the Real Story Group's Web content management research, a former journalist, and a 20-year technology industry veteran. Prior to 2001, he managed an engineering team at a systems integration firm. He now focuses his own research on enterprise community and collaboration software, SharePoint, and Web content management.
