Fantastic Social Connections 10 in Toronto

Posted by:

We are back in Stockholm after a fantastic Social Connections conference in Toronto. Infoware was silver sponsor and on our laptops we had a steaming fresh release of DomainPatrol Social. The atmosphere of the conference was vibrant! Over 200 attendees from all over the world, 70 speakers and 64 sessions, all in a conference center on the 16th floor in a skyscraper overlooking Toronto financial district.

 

All focus on IBM Connections, for example solutions around IBM Connections, use cases and best practices.

We enjoyed talking to customers that just had implemented a social workplace and customers that were long into the game and who was searching for solutions to trim and shape their way of work.

Many issues or queries that comes up when using IBM Connections can easily be solved with DomainPatrol Social, and we are always glad to be able to present such a quality product to the market.

 

This time around we were extra pleased since we got to meet our friends at panagenda in person! Ever since we formed the strategic alliance between panagenda and Infoware we have had meetings and discussions about how to best share our IBM Connections knowledge between one another. So to finally get to sit down at a dinner, or crack some jokes over a beer was well sought after! We are convinced that with our combined knowledge about IBM Connections and how to meet our customers' needs this will bring out many good things for all involved!

 

Infoware's DomainPatrol Social and pangagenda's ConnectionsExpert makes a complete set of tools for your environment!

DomainPatrol Social and Social Connections

Posted by:

Let us present to you the perfect way to keep your IBM Connections environment in shape!

DomainPatrol Social is a very competent product which solves most challenges both IT and Business experience. Certainly when it comes to Content and User Administration in IBM Connections.

For example if you have several communities, with similar purpose or content, you can use the function Merge Communities to merge them into one Community. Or Move Communities in and out of one another. The same applies to all kinds of content including Files, Blogs, Wikis, Libraries and Activities.

New projects starts, others end. The organization is constantly changing and consequently your needs.

Other situations we can solve is when people get new roles in your organization or leaves the organization. Orphan content is a common problem and DomainPatrol Social has several ways to solve it. One is Complete User Management for Files, Blogs, Wikis. Another is Copy User Access to transfer all, or some of the access that user A had to user B and/or user C. Problem solved!

Sometimes one user ends up with two profiles in IBM Connections. Perhaps they started off as a consultant or external user and now they are permanent employees. No worries. Use the function Merge Profiles. All content from both profiles are merged into one. Phew! No more unhappy users that can't access their stuff.

Make sure your users trust IBM Connections with their highly valued business content.

Contact us for more information, or meet us at Social Connections in Toronto!
