At the same time these users also see the value of professional social networking solutions like LinkedIn and are frustrated by the lack of a similar solution for use within the company. Before TWikiConnect, enterprises considering Enterprise Social Networking were required to spend huge sums on social networking products that did not take advantage of existing collaboration technology already widely deployed within the enterprise. "Hundreds of thousands of enterprise users already familiar with TWiki understand the business benefits of Web based collaboration via a structured Wiki," said Peter Thoeny, CTO of TWIKI.NET. "Making it easy for workers to connect and collaborate with each other enhances the organization's ability to 'Get Things Done.' TWikiConnect is a natural extension of TWiki and is designed to make businesses more agile and productive while maintaining a consistent source of corporate knowledge and intellectual properties," Thoeny said. "With TWikiConnect you can avoid privacy and confidentiality issues associated public Social Networking sites. Unlike Facebook's privacy policy, you own the content." CTVA 4.2.4 contains the latest version of TWikiConnect, TWIKI.NET's Enterprise Social Networking application. TWikiConnect offers many of the same features found in popular social networking applications, but has been carefully designed with enterprise users in mind. This application is included in CTVA 4.2.4 at no additional cost. Current TWIKI.NET customers will receive this powerful new functionality as a part of their existing support subscription. For users of the open source TWiki, TWikiConnect can be installed on top of an existing TWiki server. TWikiConnect software upgrades the existing users home pages with full Enterprise Social Networking functionality. No longer will managers have to guess: Who in the organization has expertise in Java and speaks Japanese? A simple search against user-maintained profiles will quickly find the answer. As with all TWIKI.NET applications, TWikiConnect can be extended to meet your company's particular Enterprise Social Networking requirements, either by your internal TWiki power users, or by a TWIKI.NET Independent Consultant.
