Easy to start and keep going
Easy to start and keep going
Business value is not derived through technology
  but rather how precisely it is applied to the
  specific need
   Many teams tend to work in relatively similar manners
    Quickr offers a variety of business templates to accelerate the
    “time to value” of the solution
   Although similar, subtle differences may be needed
    Quickr supports “controlled” user creation and customization…
    without the need for programming
   Custom templates can be created and shared
    Once created or modified, templates can be used as a basis for
    new places
Lotus Quickr Places

  Favorites: the user can
  mark their favorite places
  to make it easier to find
  and navigate to them.
  My Places: where the
  user is listed as the
  owner
  Public Places: public
  access to all users of the
  system
  All: places the user has
  access to whether public
  or restricted
Many to choose from out-of-the-box

                         Ships with over 25 Templates
                         Portable, persistent and re-usable
And creating a place is as easy as 1 – 2 – 3
                           Pick your template
                           Give it a name
                           Go to the place…it’s ready for use
And customizing it is just as easy

  Modify membership to a
  place
  Add new components
  Customize the theme
  Modify visibility of particular
  pages and components
  Tailor individual
  components
  Add additional information
  contributed via RSS feeds
  and feed reader portlet
  Setting of Policy
  information on an
  application
Meets personal & team needs
Meets personal & team needs
Much of collaboration is communication
  about Content
   Most team activities require the ability to
   manage and control documents and assorted
   electronic files
    Quickr offers basic content services which include check-in/out,
    versioning, access control, etc.
   And the content needs to be kept relative to the team collaboration
   activities
    Quickr’s integration with other Lotus solutions brings
    content to all of the collaboration offerings
Document libraries
Quickly set up libraries to store and share content securely

   Check-in, check-out,
   version control
   Customizable views to
   organize content
   Multi-level security (library,
   folder, document)
   Search across multiple
   libraries
   Workflow for routing &
   approving content
   RSS/Atom feed support to
   share or consume content
   Extensibility: custom meta-
   data, document types and
   templates
And a place for personal content*

Securely share
documents with
co-workers
Store email
attachments
and send links
instead
Engaging & interactive experience
Engaging & interactive experience
To empower the broadest number of people, the
   system must be intuitive and inviting to use
   The user experience in many business
   applications, including ECM systems, are
   often specialized and in some
   cases complex
    Quickr’s intuitive interface offers a desktop experience that
    requires little or no formal training, allowing a more rapid and
    wider spread deployment
   The collection and serving up of information is rapidly changing
   and requires a service based architecture
    Quickr’s Web 2.0 architecture provides for the leveraging of some
    of the latest tools and techniques of information sharing (Wikis,
    Blogs, RSS feeds, etc.)
A lot to choose to engage your users
     Team Discussions / Forums
     Keep a journal or blog of your meetings or creating discussions on different
     topics effecting your team.

     WIKIs (Shared Editable Pages)
     A shared editing space that team members can use to create and manage
     content such as designs, presentations, or other group material.

     Team Calendar
     Manage a community view of important events and activities that effect your
     team.

     Lists
     Lists are simple “databases” of information such as tasks, vacation days, team
     members, … that can be used to manage information simply and quickly.

     RSS / ATOM Feeds
     Quickr provides the ability to integrate and render feeds from your favorite
     ATOM or RSS site as well as to produce a feed into your favorite feed
     reader.

Leverages enterprise investments
Leverages enterprise investments
Quickr will bridge the gap between
   Collaboration and Enterprise
   Content Management
   Many companies already have one or more enterprise content
   management systems
    Connectors are being developed to allow the ECM content to be
    part of Quickr team places and collaboration activities
   Information may begin as team content and become relevant to the
   enterprise
    Quickr’s ECM integration will allow team content to be moved or
    migrated to ECM systems
   And content in the ECM system is often relevant to team activities
    Quickr will provide for “links” to ECM content that will behave in
    the same way as its team content, thereby enabling
    all of the Quickr features to be available to the ECM content
Leverage Quickr through Content Services

  Lotus Quickr Connectors
  are built upon a common
  remote service layer
