Collaboration using SiteScape Forum is a way to bridge the gap between working alone at your computer and working together with your teammates during meetings. Forum facilitates online work, creating a "virtual meeting space."
Using Forum, you will see an increase in team synergy in the following ways:
- You and your teammates can collaborate without having to be in the same room or working at your computers at the same time. Someone can post a note or document to a forum, and, at their convenience, teammates can review and further develop the idea. With Forum, collaboration is ongoing and potentially never ending.
- Ideas are formed together, interactively, with your teammates. By the time you hold that meeting in the conference room, the team has already been a part of the formation of the idea, and teammates are more likely to understand it, buy into it, and assist with its implementation. Forum becomes a "pre-meeting" meeting.
- Documents are reviewed earlier in the process, allowing easier modifications and adjustments. The Forum software also makes it easier for more than one person to write a document, because you can use Forum to define who gets to access the document at which point in the writing process..
- Your collaborative process is preserved and publicly accessible in Forum. (No more searching through e-mail folders in a frantic effort to "catch someone up" on a lengthy e-mail discussion.) To review past discussions and decisions, or to review a previous version of a document, use Forum's powerful search capability to locate the historical information quickly and easily.
- Forum allows everyone in your organization to work from the same online calendar. Literally and figuratively, everyone is "on the same page."
- Since Forum software was designed to be Internet software since the beginning, the movement from "Forum" to "the Internet" is seamless, integrated, easy, and fun.
