Social Connectivity with SocialOX

SocialOX features turn Open-Xchange into a new breed of collaboration software. SocialOX can interact with other personal information managers, as well as with other instances of SocialOX. The boundaries between different personal information management solutions vanish.

SocialOX is a set of features in Open-Xchange to make management of personal information a seamless experience, regardless of how distributed a person’s data may be.

Managing multiple sources of personal information like address data on Xing or LinkedIn, birthdays on Facebook, various brands of calendar software like Google or Exchange or Lotus etc. make the daily lives of office workers more cumbersome.

Open-Xchange unifies all these sources of personal information, enabling users to easily define rules to manage such data, and then to automate the daily maintenance of their personal information. Personal data, regardless whether it comes from external sources or the user’s own system, becomes a well-controlled resource.

Infostore (Smart Docs)

Link documents to meetings, projects, and tasks e.g. important data resides in one place not in several different mailboxes or calendars.

• Store data centralized in the Infostore, e.g. no document travel via email is needed
• Documents “Back-Up” and versioning
• Link documents to meetings, projects, and tasks e.g. important data resides in one place not in several different mailboxes or calendars
• Personal & public document folders
• Links to a document folder can be send via mail
• Work on documents as a team
• Share documents with others (e.g. marketing materials) using "Publish & Subscribe" instead of Mail-Push

Mail Client Integration
