GroveSite Launches 4.0 at Collaborative Technologies 2005: Wiki-Style Collaboration is Good for ProjectsPHOENIX & NEW YORK --(Business Wire)-- June 20, 2005 -- GroveSite (www.grovesite.com), the leading provider of easy collaboration software for cross-company teams, has announced the release of GroveSite 4.0 at the Collaborative Technologies Conference in New York on June 20, 2005. Over the lifetime of a project, today's cross-functional multi-enterprise teams will generate volumes of unstructured information -- ideas, issues, documents and discussions. This unstructured, subjective information impacts the project's success or failure, yet most traditional project management tools only handle structured information such as project tasks, timelines and status. GroveSite 4.0 is designed to bridge this gap, giving nontechnical team leaders the ability to manage both structured and unstructured information; it combines core project management functionality with wiki-like team collaboration. GroveSite 4.0's enhanced project management tools include project import/export, task dependencies, milestones, late alerts, issue tracking and Gantt charts. GroveSite has also upgraded its search functionality to include content and file search for all users. "Wiki-style collaboration is good for project teams," said Jane Hagen, GroveSite's marketing VP. "GroveSite's ease of use enables instant contribution by nontechnical users, and our flexible Web pages enable project leaders to manage all types of information." GroveSite's Web-based collaboration capabilities include these features: -- Easy, intuitive user interface -- Wiki-style Web page creation and content management -- Threaded discussion forums -- Outlook-compatible calendar -- Easily categorized file libraries -- Powerful custom data tables -- Online member directory -- E-mail notification and broadcasts GroveSite will be demonstrating its new release at the Collaborative Technologies Conference at Pier Sixty, Chelsea Piers, New York City, Pod 10 on June 20-21, 2005. About GroveSite GroveSite provides easy online collaboration workspaces for dispersed and cross-company teams.
