Situation: You Want Something Between a CMS and Home Grown Web 2.0 Tools...
ClearSpace is an interesting software package that I ran across at the Web 2.0 Expo a week ago. Most of these tools don't even consider the tools you already have in place. Things as basic as email are off in a separate silo. ClearSpace integrates email and seems to offer a great core set of document management capabilities (without getting too complicated). Even better, it offers view of team-based interaction and enterprise knowledge that is topic focused, versus file or folder focused.I the same way that Google Desktop frees you up from the administrative tasks of constantly organizing things, Clearspace had the potential to make team and enterprise knowledge accessible without a librarian.
Here are some features that might feel useful to you:
- Integrating a lot of project-specific interaction that is only available in email threads with the rest of the project's documentation. This way you don't have to search around as much when you're trying to remember what happened a month ago.
- Blogging with RSS capabilities to provide constant (and time-stamped) status reporting.
- Version control of Word and Excel documents.
- User profiles that could be very useful in the context of a PMO.
- Automated reporting of team participation.
