Nuage Releases Nuage Café, A Social Media Based Platform For Business File Sharing And Collaboration
New Social Collaboration Tool Changes Landscape for PLM and Social Media Industry
Nuage, a leading provider of Social Business Collaboration solutions, announced the public release of Nuage Café, the company’s flagship platform for secure, fast and effective file sharing in a social media environment.
Nuage Café is designed to bring everyday personal social media practices to the workplace, providing an environment to securely share and manage business’ intellectual property while allowing virtual teams to seamlessly communicate and collaborate. The integration of social media based tools fosters idea generation and ad-hoc innovation, making Café the ultimate solution for business across a broad spectrum of industries. Product features include:
• Check-in/Check-out Capabilities – Nuage Café allows users to check-in and check-out documents so revisions can easily be made without differing content from one user to the next.
• Versioning – Each time a document is checked in, the version number is incremented. Users also have the ability to access and download previous versions of the document.
• Collaboration Portal – Collaborate on a platform that functions like social media tools, so users can feel at home with work and optimize performance.
The basic Nuage Café subscription is free to users for up to 2GB of space. Nuage is offering the first 1,000 subscribers the opportunity to receive not only 2GB, but 4GB of space free. Up to 10 GB of space can be purchased for a minimal monthly fee of $20 USD.
“Nuage Café provides a social, collaborative environment designed for the workplace that is second nature to users,” said Chris Atkins, CEO of Nuage. “Our Café subscription introduces file sharing and other collaborative solutions that are optimized for a social media experience. Subscribers can be up and running in minutes, sharing information and data and managing their business processes.”
Nuage’s Social Business Collaboration solutions enable companies to use social media interactions to exchange thoughts and ideas in a way that is integrated with business processes, such as product lifecycle management (PLM), without the high costs and complexity. The company’s unique approach to process management via a social business collaborative environment and on-line business application suite allows users the flexibility and interactivity lacking in today’s management solutions.
