Novell eGuide looks like an address book. But unlike an ordinary address book, eGuide is independent of platform or a particular application. It can be accessed by any user with rights to your Web server via a standard Web browser.
In addition to searching Novell eDirectoryTM, you can use eGuide to search any LDAP directory, and even multiple directories at the same time. This means, for example, that if your company suddenly purchases another company, you can easily provide a combined white pages view of both companies using eGuide pointing at two separate directories at the same time.
eGuide runs on the most widely-used platforms and is compatible with e-mail, instant messaging, and real-time collaboration tools, such as NetMeeting* from Microsoft*. When users find the people they are looking for, eGuide allows them to launch whatever type of communication fits their current needs---e-mail, instant messaging, and even video conferencing.
eGuide searches typically include information about individuals, such as names, phone and fax numbers, locations, e-mail addresses, network IDs, etc. eGuide can also be customized to automatically "pull" information from any of the features of the data sources using DirXMLTM, Novell's data synchronization solution.
