A Growth Engine

Jive provides everything you need to launch thriving social business networks that engage employees, customers, partners and the social web. It opens vast new opportunities to drive breakthrough results through internal collaboration, customer care, marketing and sales – all in ready-to-deploy solutions matched to your business goals.

Social networking for the enterprise

The Jive Social Business Platform combines all the enterprise-class capabilities businesses require, plus an elegant consumer-style experience users love. For sheer breadth and power, there’s nothing like it. The Jive platform gives you comprehensive tools for communication, collaboration, content creation and sharing.

Activity streams

See updates across all the people, places, projects and content in your organization, at a glance. Jive’s activity streams give you a personalized view of the actions you can’t afford to miss. Intelligent filtering screens out everything but the most critical updates, so there’s no information overload. And you can create your own custom Attention Streams to track particular people, groups and projects.

Work with a Purpose

This isn’t collaboration for collaboration’s sake. Jive is designed to drive real and rapid outcomes in specific lines of business. With Jive Purposeful Places, you can instantly create fully-equipped workspaces for any project, choosing from dozens of pre-built templates for use cases in sales, marketing, HR, R&D and more. And Structured Outcomes turn conversations into decisions and decisions into actions, without missing a step.

Document collaboration

Tired of out-of-sync document drafts? Weary of long review cycles and endless email strings? We’ve made it easy to stay in sync from Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Jive for Office turns Microsoft Office into a real-time collaborative platform, so you can co-author, comment and revise together, without disjointed email attachments and version control madness. Or use Jive’s full-featured text editor. Either way, you’re all on the same page.

Expertise on demand

It’s like a corporate directory, only better. Jive’s rich profiles and search capabilities make it easy to get to know your colleagues and locate experts. Get the know-how you need to make decisions and take action, in seconds.

Smart recommendations

Instead of having to find information, what if information found you? Jive leverages rich social intelligence (like business relationships, expertise and areas of interest) to bring you content you need to see. It keeps you posted on projects, discussions and people directly related to your work. It’s like having a really smart personal assistant.

Social search

Finally, an enterprise search engine that really works. Jive Find goes beyond search strings and keywords, applying social graph analytics and contextual insight to zero in on what you’re really looking for. So you spend less time sorting through search results and stay on task. Find people, groups, discussions, blogs, videos, documents, comments. Plus, you can search across your entire network, and SharePoint too.

Ubiquitous access

What if you could access any conversation, document, idea or person in your Jive network, from anywhere? You can. Connect and participate from your favorite smartphone or tablet with Jive Mobile. Converse with colleagues and view relevant content while visiting any website with Jive Anywhere. Get social context while using your CRM, content management system, Microsoft applications and other traditional software.

Gamification

Built-in game mechanics and rewards encourage participation and provide incentives to actively engage customers in the community. As people participate, they earn more points and get more rewards. Liking and rating lets everyone share the goodness.
