OpenText Delivers Tempo Social and Tempo Box in the Cloud
Consumer-style Sharing, Syncing and Social Collaboration with
Enterprise-grade Security, Compliance and Reliability
ENTERPRISE WORLD, ORLANDO, FL, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ – OpenText (NASDAQ:
OTEX, TSX: OTC) a leading provider of Enterprise Information Management (EIM) solutions, today unveiled Tempo Social and Tempo Box at Enterprise World 2012, the company’s annual customer conference. These new offerings are
designed to facilitate social collaboration and secure information
sharing in the OpenText Cloud and on-premises.
-- OpenText Tempo Social provides an out-of-the-box social
collaboration solution with enterprise-grade security,
compliance and customization capabilities. Featuring a unique
combination of activity feeds, communities and dashboards, as
well as individual and team profiles, Tempo Social helps
organizations synthesize information needs in a common user
experience. Tempo Social is now available in the cloud,
complementing the existing on-premises offering.
-- OpenText Tempo Box allows users to easily sync, share and store
information across all the devices they use, without
sacrificing the records management rigor and security mandated
by organizational policies and industry regulations. Tempo Box
is now available as a cloud-based offering in which OpenText
takes over the deployment and management of the solution. The
new Tempo Box, Cloud Edition, complements OpenText's previously
announced Tempo Box Express and Tempo Box Content Server
Edition, which are on-premises offerings for customers who want
to retain complete control over the underlying content
repository.
“Tempo Social is a natural complement to Tempo Box for secure file
sharing and syncing,” said Muhi Majzoub, Senior Vice President of
Research and Development at OpenText. “This next generation enterprise
platform for interactions and communications will help customers
unleash enterprise value through social technology, allowing teams to
focus, work more efficiently, and connect with relevant resources and
expertise throughout the enterprise. By connecting
employee-to-employee, customer-to-customer and ultimately
employee-to-customer, OpenText Tempo Social will be fundamental to the
effectiveness of globally networked organizations.”
The OpenText Tempo product family enhances social business by providing the secure and
compliant enterprise information management that organizations demand.
With the Tempo offerings, OpenText’s market leading information
governance capabilities integrate seamlessly with consumer-style file
sharing and social collaboration apps to provide users with the best
ways to collaborate and engage without compromising the security and
compliance requirements of the enterprise. OpenText Tempo improves
workforce effectiveness by breaking down organizational barriers,
facilitating the transfer of knowledge and accelerating decision making
processes.
“Social collaboration combined with secure information storing, sharing
and syncing across multiple devices is resonating with users, but
consumer clouds are creating headaches for organizations that need
enterprise-class security to protect their information,” said Steve
Hunt, Chief Information Officer of OpenText. “We have seen tremendous
adoption with the internal deployment of Tempo Social. In just three
days, we’ve had 1,000 users create unique profiles, and we’ve observed
immediate engagement in productive interactions between employees from
different teams and on different continents – something that would
otherwise never have happened, even through hundreds of scheduled
conference calls.”
