href="#cite_note-NovNetWareNYT89-1">[1]</a> (<a href="/wiki/Help:IPA/English" title="Help:IPA/English">/noʊˈvɛl/</a>) was an American software and services company headquartered in <a href="/wiki/Provo,_Utah" title="Provo, Utah">Provo</a>, <a href="/wiki/Utah" title="Utah">Utah</a>, that existed from 1980 until 2014. Its most significant product was the <a href="/wiki/System_platform" class="mw-redirect" title="System platform">multi-platform</a> <a href="/wiki/Network_operating_system" title="Network operating system">network operating system</a> known as <a href="/wiki/Novell_NetWare" class="mw-redirect" title="Novell NetWare">Novell NetWare</a>. Novell technology contributed to the emergence of <a href="/wiki/Local_area_network" title="Local area network">local area networks</a>, which displaced the dominant <a href="/wiki/Mainframe_computer" title="Mainframe computer">mainframe computing</a> model and changed computing worldwide. Under the leadership of chief executive <a href="/wiki/Ray_Noorda" title="Ray Noorda">Ray Noorda</a>, NetWare became the dominant form of personal computer networking during the second half of the 1980s and first half of the 1990s. At its high point, NetWare had a 63 percent share of the market for network operating systems and by the early 1990s there were over half a million NetWare-based networks installed worldwide encompassing more than 50 million users. Novell was the second-largest maker of software for personal computers, trailing only <a href="/wiki/Microsoft_Corporation" class="mw-redirect" title="Microsoft Corporation">Microsoft Corporation</a>, and became instrumental in making <a href="/wiki/Utah_Valley" title="Utah Valley">Utah Valley</a> a focus for technology and software development. During the early to mid-1990s, Noorda attempted to compete directly with Microsoft by acquiring <a href="/wiki/Digital_Research" title="Digital Research">Digital Research</a>, <a href="/wiki/Unix_System_Laboratories" title="Unix System Laboratories">Unix System Laboratories</a>, <a href="/wiki/WordPerfect" title="WordPerfect">WordPerfect</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Quattro_Pro" title="Quattro Pro">Quattro Pro</a> division of <a href="/wiki/Borland" title="Borland">Borland</a>. These moves did not work out, due to new technologies not fitting well with Novell's existing user base or being too late to compete with equivalent Microsoft products. NetWare began losing market share once Microsoft bundled network services with the <a href="/wiki/Windows_NT" title="Windows NT">Windows NT</a> operating system and its successors. Despite new products such as <a href="/wiki/Novell_Directory_Services" class="mw-redirect" title="Novell Directory Services">Novell Directory Services</a> and <a href="/wiki/GroupWise" title="GroupWise">GroupWise</a>, Novell entered a long period of decline. Eventually Novell acquired <a href="/wiki/SUSE_Linux" class="mw-redirect" title="SUSE Linux">SUSE Linux</a> and attempted to refocus its technology base. Despite building or acquiring several new kinds of products, Novell failed to find consistent success and never regained its past dominance. The company was an independent corporate entity until it was acquired as a wholly owned subsidiary by <a href="/wiki/The_Attachmate_Group" title="The Attachmate Group">The Attachmate Group</a> in 2011. Attachmate was subsequently acquired in 2014 by <a href="/wiki/Micro_Focus" title="Micro Focus">Micro Focus International</a> which was acquired in turn by <a href="/wiki/OpenText" title="OpenText">OpenText</a> in 2023.

stated they were compatible with Novell ShareNet.<a href="#cite_note-PCM_advert_1983-32">[32]</a> The company realized that making a proprietary solution in this sense was disadvantageous and looked instead to the <a href="/wiki/IBM_PC" class="mw-redirect" title="IBM PC">IBM PC</a> as an alternative platform.<a href="#cite_note-Causey_chapter_1997-31">[31]</a> Now called NetWare, the network

worked with Novell NetWare.<a href="#cite_note-CW_listing_1984-33">[33]</a> NetWare came on the computing scene just as the IBM PC was emerging as a market force and applications such as the <a

within companies and enterprises and allowed Novell to find entryways into individual departments or regional facilities rather than having to convince upper management of the value of networking.<a href="#cite_note-Fortune_battle_1993-35">[35]</a> Thus, Novell's timing was spot on.<a href="#cite_note-BW_Knell_1996-36">[36]</a> As the <a href="/wiki/New_York_Times" class="mw-redirect" title="New

This trend continued into 1987 with the Advanced NetWare/286 release, which was well received within the industry.<a href="#cite_note-PCM_nominee_1987-14">[14]</a> NetWare also excelled with respect to <a href="/wiki/Computer_security" title="Computer security">computer security</a> considerations, supporting user- and group-based roles and volume- and file-level access restrictions, thus making it attractive to systems administrators.<a href="#cite_note-Causey_chapter_1997-31">[31]</a> Novell based its <a href="/wiki/Network_protocol" class="mw-redirect" title="Network protocol">network

branded as Novell products.<a href="#cite_note-IW_cards_1989-42">[42]</a> As author James Causey would later write, "NetWare deserves the lion's share of the credit for elevating PC-based local area

The company reflected aspects of Noorda's personal background, such as his <a href="/wiki/LDS_Church" class="mw-redirect" title="LDS Church">Mormon religion</a>, which brought about what was termed "the Mormon work ethic" at Novell.<a href="#cite_note-NYT_Noorda_1992-21">[21]</a> As one account later put it, Novell was "reputedly staffed with lots of hard-selling but soft-drinking Mormons."<a

spread the word about how developers and partners could make use of NetWare</figcaption></figure> Equally important as technological factors to NetWare's growth was that Novell did not try to hire a large sales force to do direct sales of the product, but instead sold it through a broad channel of some 13,000 <a href="/wiki/Value-added_reseller" title="Value-added reseller">value-added resellers</a>.<a href="#cite_note-NYT_Noorda_1992-21">[21]</a> Such resellers provided network education, installation, and subsequent maintenance, and included <a href="/wiki/CompUSA"

that becoming a <a href="/w/index.php?title=Certified_NetWare_Engineer&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Certified NetWare Engineer (page does not exist)">Certified NetWare Engineer</a> was an

distribution out. They train people who go out and train other people, and every time somebody gets trained, they get another Netware bigot, and make another dollar. They are getting paid to have people go out and be evangelists."<a href="#cite_note-NYT_Noorda_1992-21">[21]</a> The partnering approach also worked well in overseas markets, such as in Japan where Novell set up a subsidiary that major Japanese electronics firms invested in, or in South America and Eastern Europe where Novell set up authorized distributors.<a href="#cite_note-NYT_Noorda_1992-21">[21]</a> Under Ray Noorda's leadership, Novell provided upgrades to resellers and customers in the same packaging as a newly purchased copy of NetWare, but at one third the cost, which created a <a href="/wiki/Gray_market" class="mw-redirect" title="Gray market">gray market</a> that allowed NetWare resellers to sell upgrades as newly purchased NetWare versions at full price periodically, which Novell intentionally did not track. Noorda commented to several analysts that he devised this strategy to allow front line resellers to "punch through" the distributors like Tech Data and Ingram and acquire NetWare versions at a discounted rate, as Novell "looked the other way"; this helped fund the salaries of Novell Field Support Technicians, who for the most part were employees who worked for the front line resellers as Novell CNE (Certified NetWare Engineers). Noorda commented that this strategy was one he learned as an executive at <a href="/wiki/General_Electric" title="General Electric">General Electric</a> when competing against imported home appliances: allow the resellers to "make more money off your product than someone else's". <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Taking_on_Microsoft">Taking on Microsoft</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Novell&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Taking on Microsoft">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Motivations">Motivations</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Novell&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Motivations">edit</a>]</div> Unusually for the CEO of a high-tech, emerging computer company, Noorda was nearing 70 years of age by the early 1990s.<a href="#cite_note-NYT_Noorda_1992-21">[21]</a><a href="#cite_note-Fortune_battle_1993-35">[35]</a> Furthermore, he was known for alienating high-level executives who might someday be in position to run the company.<a href="#cite_note-BW_Noorda_1991-48">[48]</a> Stock market analysts were expressing concern that Noorda, whose personality was the basis for much of the company's culture, had no succession plan in place.<a href="#cite_note-NYT_Noorda_1993-60">[60]</a> At the same time, Novell faced a looming challenge from Microsoft's upcoming <a href="/wiki/Windows_NT" title="Windows NT">Windows NT</a> operating system, which, after a huge investment of resources from Microsoft, featured bundled networking and more advanced OS capabilities and looked to be that company's first offering that could seriously challenge Novell's local area networking franchise.<a href="#cite_note-NYT_Noorda_1992-21">[21]</a><a href="#cite_note-Fortune_battle_1993-35">[35]</a> Under Noorda, Novell made a series of acquisitions interpreted by many to be a direct challenge to Microsoft.<a href="#cite_note-Barney_1994_Novell-61">[61]</a><a href="#cite_note-Allchin_1992-62">[62]</a><a href="#cite_note-Age_forsale_2000-34">[34]</a> Noorda was motivated in part by a realization that NetWare's technology was not suitable as the basis for a full-fledged operating system and application platform.<a href="#cite_note-Fortune_battle_1993-35">[35]</a><a href="#cite_note-CNET_Firmage_2003-63">[63]</a> There was also enmity between the two companies and the two CEOs, stemming in part from merger talks between Noorda and Microsoft head <a href="/wiki/Bill_Gates" title="Bill Gates">Bill Gates</a> that had begun in 1989 and been on-and-off for the next couple of years before breaking down for good.<a href="#cite_note-Guardian_Frankenberg_1994-47">[47]</a> Subsequently, Novell had played a role in keeping the <a href="/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft_Corp.#History" title="United States v.

The merger was apparently against the firm's software development culture, and the finance personnel at the firm also recommended against it. The CEO of CTP, Jack Messman, engineered the merger using his position as a board member of Novell since its inception, and as part of the deal became CEO of Novell.

In November 2003, Novell acquired Linux OS developer <a href="/wiki/SUSE_S.A." title="SUSE S.A.">SuSE</a>, which led to a major shift of power in Linux distributions. <a href="/wiki/IBM" title="IBM">IBM</a> also invested US$50 million to show support of the SuSE acquisition. In mid-2003, Novell released "Novell Enterprise Linux Services" (NNLS), which ported some of the services traditionally associated with NetWare to <a href="/wiki/SUSE_Linux_Enterprise_Server" class="mw-redirect" title="SUSE Linux Enterprise Server">SUSE Linux Enterprise Server</a> (SLES) version 8.

While revenue from its Linux business continued to grow, the growth was not fast enough to offset the decrease in revenue of NetWare. While the company's revenue was not falling rapidly, it wasn't growing, either. Lack of clear direction or effective management meant that Novell took longer than expected to complete its restructuring.
