Jive Software Powers Premiere Global Services' New Software Developer Community
PORTLAND, OR – NOVEMBER 6, 2008 – Jive Software, the pure-play collaboration software leader, today announced that Premiere Global Services (NYSE:PGI) selected Clearspace Community to power its recently launched software developer community, PGiConnect. Premiere Global is a provider of on-demand, communication technologies-based business process improvement solutions with a customer base of more than 50,000 companies, including nearly 95% of the Fortune 500.
Premiere Global chose Clearspace Community over other solutions because Jive provided PGiConnect a single, comprehensive social computing platform. Premiere Global worked closely with its partner, FG SQUARED, an Austin, TX-based interactive marketing solutions firm, in order to bring PGiConnect to life. Along with Jive, FG SQUARED played a significant role in the site development and execution.
PGiConnect is a Web 2.0-enabled community for developers, with enhanced search and tagging capabilities, in addition to a social networking forum to encourage greater collaboration between participants. Developers now have access to Premiere Global’s full API Suite, development materials and examples to create traditional and mashup applications using audio conferencing, Web conferencing, voice, fax and SMS messaging technologies.
"Jive and Premiere Global put people first – the more we collaborate with one another – partners, customers, employees – the more we can accomplish and transform the way we work," said Dave Hersh, CEO, Jive Software. "Premiere Global is already reaping the benefit of its developer community and will only continue to see success as the community grows, encourages interaction and drives innovation."
Jive's flagship products, Clearspace and Clearspace Community, are the industry’s leading enterprise-class social business software applications that combine the latest content creation tools with community-driven intelligence.
