Jive Software Launches Clearspace 2.5, Providing Ubiquitous Access to Enterprise and Customer Communities
Portland, Ore., Aug. 19 -- Jive Software, the pure-play collaboration software leader (http://www.jivesoftware.com/products/clearspace), today announced the launch of Clearspace 2.5. This release expands access options for the industry's most successful enterprise collaboration and customer communities (http://www.jivesoftware.com/products/...), making connections and discussions easier and more powerful.
Clearspace 2.5 makes collaboration and communities ubiquitous through Salesforce.com integration and the ability to begin or extend discussions via email and in external Web sites. It also introduces a groundbreaking WYSIWG editor and provides powerful, easy-to-use customization options.
"Our platform has become mission critical for many Enterprises, as they can now keep their fingers on the pulse of what's happening with their employees, partners and customers," said Dave Hersh, CEO at Jive Software. "Clearspace 2.5 makes this even more powerful by introducing new ways for users to access communities from external sites, applications, and platforms, making them able to participate wherever they may be."
Clearspace 2.5 makes it easy for users to begin or participate in discussions in new and powerful ways:
-- Salesforce.com Integration: Jive's seamless integration with salesforce.com makes critical business information, from contacts to details on recent meetings to insight into a person's likes and dislikes, available within Clearspace 2.5.
-- Email Integration: Deep email integration makes it possible for users to begin or participate in Clearspace discussions via email, extending access to mobile users and any user who wishes to communicate without leaving their email application.
-- "Community Everywhere" Integration: Clearspace administrators can now extend communities into other web pages simply by pasting a small Javascript snippet. This integration allows marketing and support departments to monitor and participate in additional customer discussions.
The new release also extends Jive's leadership in social networking by introducing these collaboration features:
-- Connections: Users can now connect and follow each others' activities with the click of a mouse, introducing Twitter-like functionality to the enterprise.
-- Enhanced Search: Users can easily find groups of people based on similar profile attributes.
-- Groups: Users can create or join social groups on the fly, based on areas of interest.
Clearspace 2.5 also introduces new features that provide new ease of use for users and administrators:
-- Rich Text Editor (RTE): This simple and straightforward editor was designed so that a novice could use it without any training, which greatly improves employee efficiency and speeds collaboration.
-- Global Renaming: Clearspace 2.5 provides a global find and replace of application terminology, so that companies can continue to operate within their own nomenclature and culture.
-- Customization and 'skins': Site and community administrators can easily configure the look and feel of Clearspace by changing the color scheme and logo. Users can also download a more advanced developer kit to update the included images and deploy custom themes.
A full list of features available in Clearspace 2.5 can be found at http://www.jivesoftware.com/.
In the second quarter of 2008, Jive increased its customer base by 25%, bringing the number of total customers to 2,500, including over 15% of the Fortune 500. In addition, the company also unveiled Clearstep, an online community for social and enterprise 2.0 professionals, and named Bryan LeBlanc as the company's new Chief Financial Officer.
