- Content Platform Engine, including the Configuration Manager
- Content Search Services, including the CSS tools
- Content Platform Engine Clients
- Content Services GraphQL API, including the Configuration and Deployment tool
- Content Engine Bulk Import Tool
- FileNet Deployment Manager (FDM)
- Process Designer, including Process Administrator, Process Configuration Console, vwtool, and pelog
