Released 1/21/2008.
GUELPH, Ont. - CourseForum Technologies is pleased to announce the immediate availability of ProjectForum 6.0, a wiki-based software application that supports collaboration within and between professional workgroups.
ProjectForum is a commercially supported, high quality wiki collaboration server for small and medium workgroups. It runs securely on an organization's own network, keeping important information safely in-house and protected. Supporting multiple workgroups from a single server, it features full version control, secure authentication options, document management, full branding support and much more.
Version 6.0 introduces an innovative new wiki-oriented WYSIWYG editor that complements the existing editing tools. It provides a familiar environment that remains focused on efficient and effective collaboration. This version also adds a new site-wide user accounts option to the standard version of ProjectForum. Previously only available in the higher end Enterprise version, site-wide accounts can greatly simplify authentication for those users who are members of multiple different workgroups.
Unlike other wiki software, ProjectForum is affordable, easy to set up, easy to learn, and easy to use, for any workgroup. ProjectForum can be downloaded and set up on an internal network in minutes by anyone, without the dependencies, complex installation and maintenance headaches inherent in most wiki software.
Versions are available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD, while users of the software need only a web browser. ProjectForum offers a free version, with more advanced licenses starting at US$79. A fully managed hosted version is also available, ideal for those who may want to migrate in-house later.
CourseForum 6.0, a version of the ProjectForum application targeted for online learning applications, was also released.
