KM Space: Sharepoint Wiki Disaster - 0 views

  • One of the advantages to using a platform approach is the integration of the various pieces in one place, with a unified look and searching. We have been using Sharepoint as the platform for our intranet for many years
  • The top three on my list are Mediawiki, Confluence and SocialText. All of very INexpensive.Mediawiki is open source and free. We have not used open source software before, so it presents some new challenges.Confluence has a free download and a sharepoint connector.SocailText also has a SharePoint connector. The company is one of the thought leaders in wikis and social media.
  • I was stunned to find out the problem was not us. It was them. The Sharepoint wiki will not send out the changes. It merely sends out the entire wiki page.

  • This is a disaster. It removes the communications aspect of the wiki.
  • Alternatively, Kwizcom have a Sharepoint wiki which might do the trick (plus a free evaluation version). http://www.kwizcom.com/ProductPage.asp?ProductID=524&ProductSubNodeID=525
  • We have been experiencing problems with the notification feature for wikis in Sharepoint. When there is a change to a wiki page, it sends out the whole wiki page with no indication of the changes.
  • I introduced Confluence in my previous job, and was very happy with it. However it's a challenge to maintain it with pure Windows point and click trained IT staff.
  • With Confluence, many many plug-ins and macros are available to present access to content on your web page.
  • Traction TeamPage has the feature you request (and then some) which is to send e-mail notification that shows the DIFF view of the old and new pages. You can fine tune which spaces you want to monitor at this level - and even fine tune it by author, tag or other search facility.
  • For categorizing any SharePoint items or documents cross-site based on centrally managed taxonomies and browse it by default navigation, category tree or A-Z directory you can use the Taxonomy Extension found at:http://www.sharepartxxl.com/products/taxonomy/default.aspx

headshift > Projects > International Law Firm - 0 views

  • Headshift was asked by this international Law Firm to consult and advice on a system that would help them share and access knowledge across different parts of their global practice.
  • After an initial survey of the company's communication behaviour, its culture and its user's requirements, we suggested a solution that had at it's core the customised use of the open-source wiki-platform MediaWiki.
