What Happened to Hummingbird Exceed?

Hummingbird Exceed was Hummingbird's flagship product, a Canadian company specializing in the PC X Server. Over the past several years Hummingbird moved into the ECM market (Enterprise Content Management). At this point Hummingbird was aquired by an enterprise software company.

Since Hummingbird hit the market MKS Software developed a competition PC X Server (MKS X/Server) which provides the same level of performance at a lower cost. With the ability to aquire the X Server rights, MKS was able to enhance the product which compares to the excellent Hummingbird Exceed product at a lower cost.

MKS has specifically developed a swap out program to help move from Exceed to MKS X/Server. More information can be found here.
