EMEA Tour on Thursday April 17

Working together in teams is getting more and more important for organizations of all sizes in a global economy as more and more people wrestle to keep the daily information flow under control.

 

Novell has added many exciting new features to the upcoming release of GroupWise, which is code-named "Bonsai" and is scheduled to ship later this year. This allows you and your users to manage their work/life responsibilities and commitments even better. For example, you can easily create multiple calendars and then selectively publish them externally or subscribe to the calendars of other people or projects. This new version of GroupWise will also offer state-of-the-art contact management and many more large and small enhancements to improve end-user personal productivity and ease IT management. Furthermore, the new GroupWise client will be available for all leading desktop operating systems, including Windows, Linux, Mac, and hundreds of mobile devices. The WebAccess client has also been improved dramatically.

 

Last year Novell added Teaming + Conferencing to its workgroup portfolio, with all the collaboration tools distributed and project teams might need: workspaces, project spaces, enterprise social software, workflow automation, white-boarding, presence, chat and much more. Teaming + Conferencing can connect to many other operating, messaging and office productivity systems. For example, you can easily enrich personal productivity by leveraging the built-in integrations between Teaming + Conferencing and GroupWise. This allows you to add a team calendar in GroupWise, for example, and from within GroupWise you can access a number of Teaming portlets. And this new solution is platform independent, leverages open standards for greater interoperability and is based on the ICECore open source project, a number of key factors for success.

 

All in all, with GroupWise and Teaming + Conferencing Novell takes the lead with regard to personal and team productivity. And we will certainly show you how to become even more effective and efficient during our events.
