Teamware announces Teamware Office 5.4 (13.3.2001)

The most versatile groupware solution offered over the Web

Teamware Group, a Fujitsu subsidiary, announces today the availability of the brand new edition of Teamware Office, a complete set of groupware applications for today's business professionals. In Teamware Office 5.4, the main emphasis is on Web service enhancements on both the server and client side. These enhancements make Teamware Office 5.4 the most versatile groupware solution offered over the Web.

"The rich functionality of the Web based Teamware Office clients offer the best usability on the collaborative application market today. Being highly scaleable also in the Web environment the system enables large Web based installations. This provides remarkable cost savings for large corporate users", says Jukka Paananen, Business Director for Teamware Office

The new look & feel for the Web service client templates has been developed according to extensive usability research and customer requests. Improved features take the browser-based system onto the similar level of functionality with the traditional Windows-based groupware version.
"This is the first Teamware Office edition with the main focus on the browser side. Using the system via the Web means faster and more cost-efficient administration and makes the remote use of the groupware easier than ever", says Hans Halsema, Product Manager for Teamware Office.

Teamware Office 5.4 is the first platform enabling Teamware Office-Pl@za integration, which offers a tailor-made interactive browser-based service with personalized desktop views. Teamware Pl@za is a set of ready-made, modular Internet services integrated into a Java-based platform used for interactive Web sites.
"Through the integrated system, users can share their information with the public or access intranet services over the Internet. The total system administration can be handled centrally from one place", promises Halsema.

Other major new features of Teamware Office 5.4 include security enhancements in the MIME/SMTP connector, such as filtering and avoidance of unwanted mail items, limiting connections to SMTP responder to only known POP3/IMAP4 clients as well as automatic deleting of error mails after given period of retries. Edition 5.4 also has enhanced reliability against insufficient disk space, for database recovery and resuming services.

Additionally Teamware Office now supports a secondary server feature, which enables the user to operate multiple Teamware Office servers independently on one Solaris server machine.

Teamware Office contains everything needed for efficient collaboration and communication: e-mail, document management, enterprise-wide discussion forums and information distribution, personal time management and shared resource booking. The modular structure allows the user to specify the solution according to his needs and budget. Teamware Office, which runs in standard environments supporting Windows NT/2000, Sun Solaris and Linux platforms, is available in nine different languages.
