Jive Within Office
Jive Microsoft Office Connector is a software module that lets SBS 4.0 users work on any Microsoft Office document, spreadsheet or presentation in Jive or from their desktop. The plug-in allows users to share content in Jive SBS with one click of the save button. Users can add editors, add tags, write descriptions and manage document versions.
Office Within Jive
Here is what Microsoft Office looks like in the context of Jive. The Office content is pictured in Jive SBS 4.0, which runs in the browser. Users can bookmark, rate and see similar content. Users can also make in-line comments while automatically syncing comments with the desktop plug-in.
Building Social Bridges
Bridged discussions are embedded within a new discussion thread in the other community. Both threads remain connected and responses can be published back to the original thread.
The Jive Community
Click a menu at the bottom left of the screen to bridge a discussion from one community to another.
