What is Social Business Integrator?
Platform 46 Social Business Integrator (SBI) is a powerful, cost-effective and easy-to-use communication framework that adds value to existing business applications. SBI uses a social-networking type interface to communicate a real-time consolidated view of what is happening in the organisation. Whatever occurs in an enterprise can be communicated in real time with no user involvement, and without the needless intrusion of email. Through the use of an innovative “Connector Framework”, SBI provides a springboard for efficiency by allowing a personalized "wall" for all employees, presenting information garnered from enterprise systems, and from other employees.
Micro-Blogging
 SBI has a core micro-blogging engine at its core, allowing organisations to communicate and collaborate quickly and easily, without clogging up email systems. Through short 140-character messaging, an employee can instantly share their knowledge, opinions and experience in a quick and easy fashion.
Micro-Reporting
While Micro-Blogging is an important collaboration tool, Micro-Reporting gives an organisation an extra edge. Employees now expect information at their fingertips and in real-time. The innovative Event-Processing capability built into SBI, allows an organisation to send 140-character reporting “Notes” to employees. This keeps everyone current with what’s happening in the organisation. The ability to socialise enterprise applications, such as CRM, SharePoint, and document management adds significant value to the business.
Audit and Archive
Any messages sent on an internal network will be covered by audit and archiving regulations. That is why Platform46 have ensured that all information, which of course is owned by you the customer, not us, is archived and auditable. Anything less would be irresponsible.
Scales Across Datacentres
Architectural decisions early in the product lifecycle have paid dividends in terms of scalability. SBI lets you span deployments within a single datacentre, globally across all of your datacentres, or use the SaaS-based version at www.platform46.com. With integration into your directories, SBI can automatically set up groups and permissions based on existing groups and permissions. This allows you to be up and running quickly, and not require your end-users to recreate the wheel.
