Jive Software Delivers the Future of Collaboration at JiveWorld17LAS VEGAS, May 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today at JiveWorld17, Jive Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: JIVE) CEO Elisa Steele addressed the increasingly disconnected nature of the business landscape, and showed how Jive is fulfilling its promise to enable enterprise collaboration at any scale, reduce team and technology silos, and accelerate go-to-market execution. With the explosion of single-purpose apps, siloed messaging platforms and a myriad of office tool solutions, employees are often left overwhelmed and unproductive. Jive's vision is to overcome this challenge by delivering a collaboration hub that intelligently connects people, systems, content and networks inside and outside of organizations. In Las Vegas this week, the company previewed its next-generation capabilities, which are expected to be available by the end of 2017. "Today's most competitive companies don't work based off of org charts. They dynamically form teams around projects that expand across departments, companies and ecosystems. If you factor in all of the people, systems, IT infrastructures and security compliance requirements that are involved in business collaboration, these environments have become more complex and fragmented than ever before," said Elisa Steele, CEO of Jive Software. "We've been relentless in our focus to deliver on our Next-Generation Cloud Platform and advance the science of collaboration. As a result, we're not just enabling stronger connection in the workplace, but driving deterministic business outcomes that strengthen execution." Jive's executive vice president of products and engineering, Ofer Ben-David, and other senior executives shared the specific technology enhancements Jive is implementing as part of its next-gen collaboration hub. They demonstrated how Jive's new infrastructure will:
Steve Phillpott, Western Digital's chief information officer, described how Jive played an instrumental role in the company's two recent acquisitions by quickly and efficiently engaging employees around the world and updating them on integration progress. Jive's collaboration hub enabled Western Digital to link the combined companies' numerous operational systems and make data easily accessible, while retaining the knowledge base of corporate memory across these organizations. Special guest Dacher Keltner—one of the scientific minds behind the popular Pixar movie 'Inside Out' and professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley—spoke about how important human connection is and how it relates to trust, safety, performance and survival. In addition, leaders across the healthcare and federal industries convened at the Jive Healthcare and Federal Summits yesterday to exchange ideas and best practices, and further explore the key role that connections and collaboration plays within their markets. JiveWorld17 is the industry's premier conference for communication and collaboration, offering more than 60 customer-led breakout sessions on best practices in optimizing employee, customer and partner connections and driving stronger communities for measurable business outcomes.
