Solutions and advantages Foswiki offers
Intranet
With a wiki in your intranet,
employees are empowered to quickly update status and other information, enabling everyone to stay up-to-date.
Collaboration
Instead of creating documents in isolation,
work together with your co-workers,
hold virtual discussions, and share your knowledge. Spread news and updates through Foswiki-based tools such as a blog or automatically generated newsletter.
Your
partners and customers can also collaborate with you on shared documents. Separate workspaces (Foswiki webs) can be used to partition information for different clients.
Reduce the email flood
Instead of being flooded by endless email discussions,
consolidate discussion into a wiki page. Imagine returning from vacation and and seeing dozens of emails with the same subject; now think how much easier it would be if everyone could combine their discussion into one centralized location, thereby
significantly reducing email traffic and improving communication.
Dashboards
Use your wiki to
combine data from different sources in one place. Foswiki provides powerful macro-like capabilities to support your business intelligence.
Streamline documentation updates
Remember when your clients or co-workers last complained about a lack of documentation? Often time is wasted due to people not knowing what to do next. Using a wiki, it is
easy to create and update your process documentation, and even
implement work flows supporting your processes.
Knowledge management
Foswiki offers a simple way for employees to
share their expertise and find valuable information from their peers. It's a great way to build up your reputation as an expert. Foswiki provides excellent facilities to organize your most valuable asset: your employees' experience.
Better meetings
A wiki can
store everything you need for your meetings in one place, such as agendas, procedures, associated documents, and action registers, avoiding having multiple copies of files floating around. No more looking for the latest version — everything is in the wiki. As a result, your company's meeting culture will take a huge leap forward.
