Vibrant MCSE BOOT Camp Notes :

Summary

For those organizations building systems to carry them into the future, now is the time to leave groupware technology behind. Aside from the fact that groupware will not be compatible with future applications, it currently is not compatible with the Internet. In addition, with groupware, your software dictates the format in which data, information, and communications are configured. Groupware also makes changing, modifying, and updating applications difficult, as software and standards are proprietary.

For those same organizations that are looking for the most efficient ways to communicate externally with employees, business partners, and association members, all these groups must be "connected" to systems that are designed to meet and keep up with rapidly evolving technology. Remember, with an intranet, the software is built around your data, information, and communications needs; and intranets use open standards, meaning the standards of applications designed for the intranet are available to users, making communications on all levels with anyone accessible.
