About the Book

Groupware. Maximize the benefits and minimize the learning curve.

Not long ago, groupware meant company e-mail, period. But now it means a growing world of possibilities, built around the Internet, corporate intranets, new networking technologies, and the software that exploits them. It's a whole new environment. So how do you get a grip on it? How will it change the way you work? What pieces go into it, and how do they fit together? What are protocols, messaging APIs, TCP/IP, HTML, PPP, SQL, and all the rest? If you're a manager whose company is using groupware technology to fuel growth, you need answers. And you'll find them here. In clear, comprehensive, easy-to-read chapters, you'll learn about: * Definitions of groupware * The technologies at the heart of a functional groupware environment * Groupware components-those that run on your desktop and those that work in the background * How groupware fits into global computing-the Internet, intranets, HTML, Java, browsers, and more * Technical issues that matter to managers-an introduction to upgrades, maintenance, security, replication, server distribution, and other useful subjects Extensive examples introduce you to Microsoft technologies and groupware strategies. At the same time, UNDERSTANDING GROUPWARE IN THE ENTERPRISE stays focused on the larger picture. And that makes it invaluable for anyone who wants to understand this important business development.
