Collaboration

Today’s facebook generation are using the internet in radically different ways. This trend should be encouraged by businesses not resisted. Based on social networking principles popularized in some consumer-applications, iBE.net facilitates dynamic teams with document sharing, comments, and workflow. You’ll never have to rely on email or phone-calls to keep your team on the same page. Interact with both colleagues and outside partners by simply entering an email address.

iBE.net’s workflow editor allows you to define simple status networks (e.g. “created”, “released”, “approved”, “closed”) or more complicated process flows with activities carried out by multiple people or roles (e.g. “send this to the manager of the project I am booking to”).

Use our industry-specific workflow templates or create your own approval networks for timesheets, expense items, projects, tasks, customers, employees, users and more. iBE.net’s workflow templates are compliant with industry standards (BPMN 2) allowing you to create networks of:

• Best business practices
• User and system activities
• Document states or status codes
• Possible user responses (e.g. “approve”, “reject”)
• Gateways or branches including conditional flows (e.g. “go to step #10 if document value is higher than $1000”)
• Timers, timed events and escalations (e.g. “trigger this flow every week”)

We carry out regular security audits and verifications to ensure our security is up to date and loopholes are closed.
