Lotus Sametime
Lotus Sametime (a.k.a. IBM Lotus Instant Messaging & Web Conferencing) collaboration software enables users to engage and respond to colleagues, customers, business partners and suppliers in real time. With Lotus Sametime, users can make informed decisions on up-to-the-minute information - and can collaborate and interact securely, in the context in which they are working. These advanced collaboration capabilities are designed to build resilient business relationships with individuals, teams or entire organisations that can help position your company for future growth.
Lotus Sametime software also includes a comprehensive set of customisation tools that makes it possible for you to tailor the application to address your organisation's unique requirements. Toolkits provide application programming interfaces (APIs) so you can integrate and embed real-time collaboration capabilities into e-mail, calendars, discussion databases, document libraries and business portals, as well as a wide range of Microsoft Windows and Web applications.
To build a real-time collaborative workplace you must start with a sound foundation based on three key capabilities:
Presence awareness
Users can see which team members -and applications-are online and can monitor their status. Users can collaborate, share information and take appropriate action. Users can also control their individual online availability and visibility through robust user privacy features.
Instant messaging
Users can initiate an instant messaging session involving one or many persons. This includes text-, audio- and videobased exchanges of information in real time. They can also launch an instant Web conference to share their desktops with other users.
Web conferencing
Users can quickly move from application sharing to a whiteboard session to take advantage of more robust Lotus Web Conferencing functionality. They can share a document or a drawing, an application - word processor, spreadsheet or project management software - or their entire desktops. Users can even give a team member access to his or her desktop, or pass control of the Web conference to
speed collaboration processes. They can also optionally integrate Web conferences with third-party
audio services.
