Sponsor highlight: TIMETOACT GROUP

TIMETOACT GROUP is a large German business partner who used to sponsor Social Connections as long as I can remember. Then developed “XCC – Web Content Extension for IBM Connections” which was later acquired by IBM and renamed to “ICEC – IBM Connections Engagement Center”.

TIMETOACT GROUP consists of several companies in Germany, Austria and Switzerland that cover multiple vendor and open source platforms for collaboration. In the IBM space, and especially regarding IBM Connections, TIMETOACT GROUP offers three main solutions:

XCC/ICEC web content and custom apps solutions
CAT – Connections Administration Toolkit
UAT – User Administration Tool

In the last year they also added a lot of new integrations for Connections and specially for ICEC: Box.com, JIRA, Confluence, Sharepoint and more.

We are happy to welcome TIMETOACT Group again among our Gold sponsors.

Sponsor highlight AppFusions

News Appfusions, gold, social, sponsor by Simon Vaughan

Here is Part 3 of our blogging series where we highlight our Platinum and Gold sponsors.

And Today it’s time for our Gold sponsor – AppFusions!

The Social Connections team are thrilled and excited to welcome Dion Hinchcliffe, from Washington DC, and Francois Nasser, from Chicago to join us in Vienna!

Both of these Gentlemen are experts in their field and will provide real-world insights for the attendees of Social Connections.

Dion is well-known in the industry for his extensive thought-leadership in collaboration and digital transformation technology and strategy. And, Francois is no newbie to the field, as worldwide Director of Customer Success for IBM Collaboration Services for many years. You could say, “he gets it and has seen it” when it comes to IBM collaboration solutions – the good, the bad, and fortunately, the best is evolving.

Please join these forces of nature for a special discussion around the future of work, integrated digital workplace hubs, and most importantly: solutions that demand tangible outcomes and results. Working collaboratively and better is no longer an option in today’s business dynamics. Slow processes and missed outcomes can no longer be an excuse.

Too many tools? They should be helping you, not causing more chaos or challenges.

Please therefore visit the AppFusions booth on the sponsor floor and if you can, join their session on Monday, October 16, at 1:30 pm.

News domain, domainpatrol, domainpatrol social, dps, gold, infoware, social, sponsor by Maria Nordin

Part 2 of our blogging series where we highlight our Platinum and Gold sponsors is here. Today it’s time for the Swedish business partner Infoware who has been working with IBM products for over 20 years.

You know IBM Connections right? What you might not know is, that we make it even more powerful, useful, better, tidier with DomainPatrol Social

We can in 4 clicks merge two whole Communities. With everything in it! Neat and tidy. With the same function you can move and merge almost all content, like Wikis, Files, Communities, Activities, Users etc. All solving complex questions and issues from users and admins.

In our session we show real life examples how our customers have used DomainPatrol Social to:

use IBM Connections more. Sometimes users are afraid of submitting content as they don’t know where to put it
to upgrade their environment
to merge in companies they bought – with lots of new users and content
to handle movements of staff in the organisation
to handle unused and orphan content that clogs up the environment

Detach your content from the predefined places, and go social!
