LAS VEGAS, May 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today at
JiveWorld17, Jive Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: JIVE) CEO Elisa Steele addressed the increasingly
disconnected nature of the business landscape, and showed how Jive
is fulfilling its promise to enable enterprise collaboration at any
scale, reduce team and technology silos, and accelerate
go-to-market execution. With the explosion of single-purpose apps,
siloed messaging platforms and a myriad of office tool solutions,
employees are often left overwhelmed and unproductive. Jive's
vision is to overcome this challenge by delivering a collaboration
hub that intelligently connects people, systems, content and
networks inside and outside of organizations. In Las Vegas this week, the company previewed its
next-generation capabilities, which are expected to be available by
the end of 2017.
"Today's most competitive companies don't work based off of org
charts. They dynamically form teams around projects that expand
across departments, companies and ecosystems. If you factor in all
of the people, systems, IT infrastructures and security compliance
requirements that are involved in business collaboration, these
environments have become more complex and fragmented than ever
before," said Elisa Steele, CEO of
Jive Software. "We've been relentless in our focus to deliver on
our Next-Generation Cloud Platform and advance the science of
collaboration. As a result, we're not just enabling stronger
connection in the workplace, but driving deterministic business
outcomes that strengthen execution."
Jive's executive vice president of products and engineering,
Ofer Ben-David, and other senior
executives shared the specific technology enhancements Jive is
implementing as part of its next-gen collaboration hub. They
demonstrated how Jive's new infrastructure will:
- Connect networked ecosystems through universal
identity—Later this year, Jive's solution will support a single
identity, enabling people to seamlessly interact with content and
colleagues across their employee, partner and customer communities.
Jive's new architecture will also use metadata to power an
entitlements-based universal search—the only solution in the market
that will bring content and people together across the entire
business ecosystem without replication while enabling immediate
collaborative action on any piece of content without leaving Jive's
user experience.
- Provide a common collaboration layer across applications and
organizations—Jive's new collaboration services, including
universal search and integrated contextual conversations, will
power collaboration at any scale, in any system, for any team
working across an ever-changing digital landscape.
- Leverage network intelligence to grow your business and
improve operations—One of the most distinctive benefits of
Jive's collaboration hub is the network intelligence surrounding
the connections between people and content that form and strengthen
every day. Businesses today are challenged regarding how work
happens in the digital landscape of the 21st century due
to the complexity of collaboration across always-changing business
ecosystems. The Jive WorkGraphTM is the first to enable
predictions that uncover latent business value and hidden profits
through the use of big data analytics and artificial intelligence
(AI).
Thought Leaders and Speakers Showcase the Importance of Human
Connection
Steve Phillpott,
Western Digital's chief information officer, described how Jive
played an instrumental role in the company's two recent
acquisitions by quickly and efficiently engaging employees around
the world and updating them on integration progress. Jive's
collaboration hub enabled Western Digital to link the combined
companies' numerous operational systems and make data easily
accessible, while retaining the knowledge base of corporate memory
across these organizations. Special guest Dacher Keltner—one
of the scientific minds behind the popular Pixar movie 'Inside Out'
and professor of psychology at the University
of California, Berkeley—spoke about how important human
connection is and how it relates to trust, safety, performance and
survival. In addition, leaders across the healthcare and federal
industries convened at the Jive Healthcare and Federal Summits
yesterday to exchange ideas and best practices, and further explore
the key role that connections and collaboration plays within their
markets.
