Discussion Forums

Tap into Knowledge Management With HyperOffice Online Discussion Forums

Many businesses today recognize that the knowledge of their team is one of their most valuable assets. But capturing and tapping that knowledge for the future remains a challenge.

Team members don't have time to meet face-to-face. And valuable electronic communication between employees is lost on desktops and e-mail inboxes and cannot be accessed or shared for relevant situations.

Bring Out That Hidden Knowledge in Everyone

HyperOffice's Online Forums solve these challenges and offer new opportunities for knowledge management across your company. The online discussion forums provide a centralized brainstorming area for ideas, information, resources, and feedback on critical business decisions.

Unlike a physical meeting, team members can contribute online communication as their schedule allows. And unlike email, the information is labeled, categorized, and stored for future business use.

Set-up Discussion Forums in Seconds

Using the navigation features found in the HyperOffice online forums, you can navigate through the forum postings and tap the ideas to make faster, better, and more informed decisions.

Discussion forums are one of the 10 key features of the HyperOffice Intranet Suite, which also includes Web-based business class email, online document management, and online calendars.

Among the Benefits of HyperOffice Discussion Forums:

• Generate effective online communication. Stimulate valuable peer-to-peer discussion among decision makers.
• Promote peer-to-peer sharing. Create a positive corporate culture in which team members have a forum to provide input.
• Centralized discussion archive. Relevant knowledge from the forum can be instantly accessed at any time to improve decision making.

Easy is the Word!

With online forums, users can create a discussion, post opinions, or search for previous discussion forums to help them locate the information they need to make better business decisions. Now all key members can be a part of the decision-making process from the convenience of their computer.
