Industry-First Innovations Broaden Reach of Social Business and Change Rules of
the Game
PALO ALTO, Calif., 2012-05-02 13:59 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Jive Software, Inc. (Nasdaq:JIVE), the industry's largest pure-play social
business provider, today announced its next-generation platform, introducing an
array of industry-first features and driving a new era of social business
technology that is easier to use and adopt, more accessible, and more pervasive
than ever before. The new platform is available immediately in the cloud and
via Try Jive, a free 30-day trial providing a rapid on-ramp to social business
for millions of new users.
The new platform is available immediately in Jive Cloud, Jive's public cloud
service. Key elements of today's announcement include:
-- Jive Anywhere, a breakthrough capability that extends social business to
the web at large, enabling users to access social functions from any
website or web application.
-- Jive !App Experiences, enabling users to invoke powerful applications and
merge them seamlessly into the social business workflow with a single
keystroke.
-- Jive Edge, a sophisticated social intelligence engine that optimizes a wide
range of social business processes such as search, providing more relevant,
precise, and personalized results.
-- Major enhancements in Jive What Matters activity streams, including
customizable Attention Streams focused on specific processes and people.
-- Jive for Teams, a new group collaboration solution for teams of 25 to
250,000 people. Try Jive provides a fast on-ramp to Jive for Teams via Jive
Cloud deployment and a 30-day free trial, bringing leading-edge social
business capabilities to large and small teams.
-- A dramatically simplified and engaging user experience.
'Social business is no longer for early adopters only,' said Nikos Drakos,
Research Director at Gartner. 'It is becoming a mainstream phenomenon, and the
market is evolving rapidly. This calls for powerful solutions that solve real
business problems and provide an effortless collaboration experience by merging
seamlessly into everyday workflows.'
'While social business is still perceived as new in some quarters, we've been
at it a long time,' said Tony Zingale, Jive CEO. 'We've delivered mature,
proven solutions, massive ROI, and transformative benefits to hundreds of
companies and millions of users. Now we're taking the next great leap -- we're
making social technology pervasive and accessible to the masses across a wide
range of business environments and applications.'
'Thomson Reuters provides critical information, news, and software to 20
million professionals in diverse markets and geographies,' said Tim Wike,
director, Intranet Strategy&Operations at Thomson Reuters. 'By empowering
employees to connect and share information and best practices across teams and
time zones, Jive's platform allows Thomson Reuters to better serve our
customers.'
A New Bar for Social Innovation
The latest Jive platform breaks new ground in a number of key areas:
Jive Anywhere
Jive Anywhere brings the power of Jive social collaboration to any web
application or web site. As users visit a website oruse a web-based
application, Jive Anywhere recognizes where they are and provides access to
relevant conversations and content in their Jive network. Users can take part
in discussions with colleagues, view related documents and other content, and
work together in groups. Jive Anywhere instantly 'socializes' websites and
applications such as Microsoft Dynamics, Office 365, Salesforce.com, Google
Docs, SAP, NetSuite, and LinkedIn. Users can, for example, converse about a
specific record in a CRM system, or a job candidate in LinkedIn, or a research
report on the web. These 'no-click' integrations are automatic and require no
IT intervention.
Jive !App Experiences
Jive pioneered the use of apps in social business with the Jive Apps Market,
allowing users to access a variety of customer and third-party social business
apps. Now Jive is taking another leap with Jive !App Experiences, enabling
users to transparently merge !App functionality into whatever they're working
on, be it a document, discussion, or other content. Users simply type a '!'
character and choose the desired !App function from a pop-up menu. Jive calls
this unprecedented capability '!App mentioning' (like (at)mentioning). For
example, a user collaborating on a business plan can insert the latest pipeline
report using a CRM !App, or embed a chart using a graphing !App, or assign a
task to another user with a project management !App--all without ever leaving
the document. This revolutionary new capability builds on OpenSocial industry
standards, and is being adopted by Jive !App partners including Appirio, Box,
Goshido, HEDLOC, INXPO, LucidChart, and Wrike.
Simpler, Smarter Activity Streams
Jive What Matters, Jive's intelligent business activity stream, has been
enhanced with a more streamlined user experience. It combines the simplicity
and familiarity of Facebook-style activity streams with smart filtering that
removes irrelevant noise and delivers just the information essential to
people's interests. Jive What Matters also includes a new capability called
Attention Streams. These are personalized, curated streams focusing on specific
areas of interest. Users can specify their own Attention Streams and aggregate
any combination of content to keep track of particular people, departments,
projects, and activities.
Jive Edge
Jive Edge is a sophisticated adaptive intelligence engine using technology
pioneered by Proximal Labs, which Jive acquired last year. Jive Edge draws on a
rich understanding of the enterprise social graph, as well as cutting-edge big
data analysis. It augments a wide range of social activities and provides
targeted, noise-free results and recommendations matched to the needs of
individual users. Jive Edge is the basis for Jive Find, a new search capability
that leverages an understanding of social connections, content, and context to
accurately predict what the user is looking for.
Availability
Jive's next-generation Jive platform is available immediately via Jive Cloud as
part of the new Jive for Teams group collaboration solution. Teams of any size
can Try Jive for Teams free for 30 days at Try Jive.
Jive Anywhere is available immediately via Jive Cloud and other Jive deployment
options.
Jive !App Experiences, Attention Streams, Jive Edge, and Jive Find are
available immediately via Jive Cloud and will be available for all Jive
deployment options this fall.
To showcase the latest trends and best practices in social business, Jive
presents the JiveLive Tour, an eight-city seminar series in May and early June,
2012. To learn more, visit the JiveLive Tour site.
