2. Who Am I?
3. GroupWise – its future GroupWise in 2004 (and beyond) will encompass several different Novell technologies, including the “traditional” GroupWise technology, with all components integrated in order to provide a pervasive collaboration environment:
4. Today’s Complex Collaborative Environment
5. Collaboration Challenges
6. When did you last do this??? Create a document, and save it to the desktop
Mail it around to the team as an attachment
Receive three copies back, each with differing edits
Edit your original, add the changes, and save it to the desktop
Mail it back around to the team
File the sent item with the rest of the project emails
Six months later, field a request for the document, and forget where you put it
Email the team members to see if one of them has it.
7. How we work today . . . Email has become a preferred method of file sharing for many users
saving attached files from an email message into shared folders, as an example, makes the files inaccessible to the user's desktop applications
While shared folders has made the files more accessible to groups of user's, actually working with those files requires that the user move them to a local store - often a replicated file structure, similar to one she might have created in GroupWise, on her local computer
Thus users have created a filing and management overhead that causes additional work for them.
8. Integrating iFolder into GroupWise The integration of iFolder into GroupWise proposes to bridge the gap between the GroupWise client and the desktop and related applications
By saving attachments directly into iFolders within the GroupWise client, the attachments are saved locally on the desktop file system, thus readily available to desktop productivity applications
With multiple folders and sharing being added, it eases the ability to share and collaborate on documents without the complexity of a DMS system, which is often foreign or too difficult to use for many users
9. Always ready – always available Just as GroupWise makes updated files readily available through DMS, so does iFolder - but more transparently and always available even when GroupWise is not running
iFolder is (well, it will be!) available across various platforms, bringing better collaboration to more users
iFolder is not ODMA dependent, thus making all applications equally efficient for collaboration
iFolder moves the GroupWise concept of Shared Folders to a new level
