San Francisco - February 16, 2005 - Citadon, the leader in integrated Web-based collaboration, document management and business process management solutions, today announced the immediate availability of ProjectNet® Small Team Edition (STE) 2.0. ProjectNet® STE 2.0 now runs on an enterprise-class collaboration platform and features enhanced team productivity tools and search capabilities. With this new release, smaller project teams will be able to shorten project completion times by ramping new team members faster, managing complex projects more easily, and leveraging advanced collaboration and document management capabilities previously only available to large enterprises.
ProjectNet® STE 2.0 builds on the success of ProjectNet STE, which was recently chosen as a Codie Awards finalist for Best Document Management Product or Service for the best management of the entire document life cycle.
"Effective collaboration and document sharing with our clients, suppliers and partners are critical to our ability to deliver on our customer commitments," said Zane Paxton, CEO of G-4 Consulting, " With ProjectNet STE, we have a powerful, yet easy-to-use web-based system to exchange and manage information -- without buying any additional software or hardware."
Key Features of ProjectNet® Small Team Edition 2.0 include:
Powerful Enterprise-Class Technology Platform - The underlying technology platform for ProjectNet STE is now the same as Citadon's award-winning enterprise solution, Citadon Collaboration Workspace (CW). With this platform, project teams now will benefit from greater scalability, faster performance, more in-depth version control, and a more flexible security structure. Customers can easily upgrade to Citadon CW as their collaboration needs evolve.
Enhanced Personal Productivity Tools - In addition to a web browser, users may now access their documents directly through Windows File Explorer with the new ProjectNet® STE desktop client. In addition to standard Windows interactions, collaborative functions like downloading, viewing, redlining, opening, managing security, and checking audit history are now accessible directly through Windows Explorer. All security permissions are enforced and all interactions are captured in an audit trail.
Advanced Search Capabilities - Project team users now have the ability to build sophisticated queries by constructing individual criteria and combining them with "And" and "Or" conjunctions. Queries can include criteria based on attributes, text contained within documents or a combination of both. Common search criteria can be saved for reuse.
"To keep up in today's marketplace, Citadon recognized that departments and smaller organizations need access to the same powerful collaboration tools as large enterprises," said Howard Koenig, president and CEO of Citadon. "With our latest release of ProjectNet® STE, we have put enterprise-class collaboration into the hands of smaller organizations and departments who are serious about leveraging collaboration for competitive advantage."
Today, Citadon also announced the availability of Citadon Collaboration Workspace 7.0 - an enterprise on-demand collaboration service that now includes personal and workspace portals, more sophisticated searches, and expanded data analysis capabilities. With both releases, Citadon extends its leadership in providing sophisticated, yet user-friendly, collaboration capabilities that are tailored to meet the needs of all organizations -from small project teams to large enterprises.
