A regular wiki platform is designed to work only on textual information. Unlike it, as well as hundreds of other
wiki engines , the
JotSpot 2.0 platform makes it possible to jointly edit online spreadsheets, file storages, calendars, photo galleries and documents of other formats. The proprietary engine supports many functions not available in the current version of the standard wiki, for example, the ability to send an email to the address of any page in a wiki project or automatic indexing of Word and Excel documents attached to the project.
Another distinctive feature of JotSpot is a more user-friendly interface, which attracts many buyers from commercial companies to this platform, who are also traditionally afraid to use open source software, such as wiki. Actually, JotSpot was originally designed specifically for use in corporate networks.
The first version of the platform JotSpot managed to perfectly recommend itself. Among the customers are more than two thousand companies, including such large corporations as eBay, Intel, Symantec and others. JogSpot 2.0 corporate license for an unlimited number of users with projects of any size costs $ 200 per month.
So what's new in JotSpot 2.0?
')
1. Document templates. Now users can quickly and easily create collaborative web projects: spreadsheets, calendars, etc. Spreadsheets are now the standard type of page, they support the traditional functionality of desktop applications: formulas, copy and paste functions, selection of a group of cells while holding down the Shift key.
2. Control over the appearance. Users can specify a color scheme for their web project and add logos, and you don’t need to know HTML or CSS.
3. The new linking system greatly facilitates the process of setting up web links to pages within the project and beyond. This is one of several usability enhancements. Another improvement of this kind is the sidebar in the style of Microsoft Outlook with an indication of all available wiki-applications.
4. A powerful rights distribution system gives you complete control over who can access to view and / or edit individual parts of a project.
