Enhanced Groupsites

CollectiveX users are always coming up with great features and functionality they’d like to see in a Groupsite to take group engagement to an even higher level. Our design challenge is to incorporate these powerful new features in a way that keeps the user experience simple and intuitive.

We’ve been working diligently. I’m pleased to announce that next-evolution Groupsites will release in July 2008! I can’t describe a user experience (by definition, it is yours). But, it’s gonna be really cool!

Here’s what’s coming:
  • A new look, including a redesigned menu bar. To make it even easier for you to navigate and use your Groupsite. This new design also allows Groupsite Managers to add more features and functionality to a Groupsite without crowding its simple navigation structure.
  • New features, including integrated blogging, tagging, new calendar views and an eMail Blast archive. New features—and modified existing tools—will improve your ability to communicate, share and network. Many of the new features will also enhance your ability to locate and view content.
  • Improved “My CollectiveX Network” views, with filtering capabilities. Create exactly the views you need to locate information or stay organized – for any, some or all of the Groupsites you participate in.
  • New features, for Groupsite Managers: customizable content modules, role-based permissions tagging, site customization and more. To give you more flexible options and to make group engagement even easier.
  • More bells & whistles. A feature or two to surprise our geeks and techies, and expand Groupsite capabilities.

Of course, you won’t need to download anything to use enhanced Groupsites. Once they launch, you’ll just log in as usual and all of the new features and benefits will be there.

GETTING UP TO SPEED

To make it easy for you to learn the new features, we’ll be posting a “What’s New” page. This page will appear when you first log-in after enhanced Groupsites are released. At that time, we’ll also have FAQs for you to reference. Any questions or concerns about this transition? Tell us by emailing support@collectivex.com.

We appreciate the opportunity to continue serving you – and, look forward to even better things happening with enhanced Groupsites!
