The place to work together.
What is Novell Vibe?
Novell Vibe brings people, projects, and processes together in one secure place to enhance team productivity—no matter where the team is or what devices they use.
New in Vibe 3.4
Simplified licensing, an improved Microsoft Office add-in and better mobile apps.
Collaborate on and manage projects internally and externally, while on the road
Flexible productivity at your fingertips. From one location, your teams can manage, discuss, create, edit, and respond to each other using a wide variety of tools.
Create interactive intranets
Augment or replace an existing intranet. With drag-and-drop ease, your teams can create custom landing pages and manage their content–all on their own. Dynamic interactions blossom through shared documents, surveys, blogs, and business-focused micro-blogging, all without spending weeks or months setting up pages.
Retain knowledge
Foster the contribution and growth of organizational knowledge in a way that ensures that it can always be leveraged.
Automate business processes
Built-in workflow tools help you create a more formal structure for collaboration processes. Vibe workflows can integrate with third-party systems, and your users don't have to be programmers or developers to build a workflow.
Success Stories
Beaverbrooks
Beaverbrooks wanted to give its employees an easy way to communicate with each other and with head office. Novell Vibe provides a 'company home page', bringing together a growing array of podcasts, wikis, messaging tools, workflows and task-management tools to help streamline operations and foster better connections between staff.
Bexley UK NHS
Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) and Care Trusts across England were grouped into clusters with some sharing of management teams and board members. The aim of clustering arrangements is to release savings in management costs for investing in front line care whilst preserving sufficient functionality for PCTs to carry out their statutory functions. .
LMU München
Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU München) used Vibe to create a web-based platform that gives staff, students and partners secure access to documents, blogs and wikis.
SwitchDesk
As an IT solutions company with many diverse clients, SwitchDesk relied on the primary engineer assigned to each client to track key information about that account. If the primary engineer was unavailable to help with a problem, the client was left hanging. Now, with Novell Vibe, no client has to wait for a solution.
Garden Valley School Division
Garden Valley School Division uses Vibe to enable students to collaborate in a safe and supportive environment, and provide professional learning communities for teachers from twelve different facilities.
