I got an email from the GroupSwim guys this morning (I’ve reviewed their offering previously) proud to tell me that they’ve released the latest version of their software. Top of the list of improvements is file collaboration. Using GroupSwim, you can now add files by emailing them into the site, adding them to discussions, or uploading them directly. Once they are in the system, GroupSwim provides;
- Tagging and indexing for easy discovery using our search
- Managing multiple versions of the document
- Suggesting related files and discussions based on what you are reading
- Previewing from the web so you don’t need to download in order to see what is there
There is much more in the release including their improved semantic search engine creating a fully-fledged collaborative system.
Well done guys and keep up the good work!
