As workers become more mobile and workgroups expand beyond the company’s borders (to include customers, suppliers and partners), groupware functions like those found in portal server and Microsoft Exchange allow people to stay connected, keeping projects on track and increasing productivity.
Using groupware data and resources in new applications and business processes speeds time of deployment and streamlines IT resources (e.g. contact lists, calendars), reducing redundancy and increasing efficiency.
Integration of Microsoft Exchange with open source portals and corporate portals using SyncEx includes:
JSR-168 compliant portlets: Get access to your mails, schedule team meetings, priorities, tasks, and keep updating your global address book using JSR-168 portlets from SyncEx.
