Jive Software has introduced the Jive Fall cloud release, offering a complete solution for companies replacing old portals with a modern mobile version and looking to increase productivity by providing dynamic communication and collaboration solutions, for both on and off-premise.
The Jive Fall cloud will be released in early November. It includes new real-time communications that reach people across devices, a work environment that brings in content from Gmail and Google Drive, a new social task management system and a modernised corporate directory that helps employees find experts and source talent within their company.
Lindsay Lamb, marketing operations, Pharos Systems International said: "We started using Jive at the beginning of the year and have already seen an incredibly powerful impact on how employees communicate and collaborate with each other. The innovations coming out of the Fall cloud release — from the integrated messaging to the new social task system — will help us further transform the way we work and drive even greater productivity gains at every level of the company."
Jive’s Social Directory provides a simple way to find experts and source talent inside the company. People can now endorse colleagues’ skills, making it easier than ever to find the person with the right expertise. Employees can use these new expertise identification capabilities to find experts quickly. Jive’s profiles now offer a 360-degree view of fellow employees, including how they are connected within the organisation, their professional experience, their most impactful contributions, and trending content and recent activity, plus a gallery view of photos.
Jive Fall cloud release offers a flexible and intuitive portal platform that organisations can easily customise, helping individual departments within a company build dynamic, engaging portals in minutes for improved employee enablement and team coordination.
Jive’s Fall cloud release offers more integration capabilities for third-party developers than any other social platform in the enterprise, including the ability to tie in any content system or document management system, build deeply integrated apps and create interactive activity stream objects that drive added collaboration benefits.
Oudi Antebi, senior VP of Products at Jive commented on the Jive Fall cloud: "We are focused on making Jive the social platform to get real work done – ensuring collaboration happens in context, bringing in all lines-of-business apps into the collaboration process and building the right level of functionality to help people move conversations into actions. We’re transforming the way people communicate and collaborate in a new world where most of us are mobile and use a best-of-breed approach when choosing the apps we use at work."
