The OpenKM system was developed using open technology (Java, Tomcat, Lucene, Hibernate, Spring).

In 2011 and 2012, OpenKM began to expand its markets, translating the application to over 35 languages, allowing the Document Management System to be used worldwide by creating a network of partners.

In 2017 OpenKM established subsidiaries in France, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, the MENA region, and the USA.

OpenKM implements a Web 2.0 user interface framework based on GWT (Google Web Toolkit) that supports Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Chromium and Google Chrome and the latest versions of Opera.
