Real-Time Collaboration That's Fit For Business!

It's a simple fact. Efficient, flexible, instantaneous communication is critical to your company's success. Which is the reason why you need Lotus Sametime -- software for real-time collaboration. You see, whether you're working with people across the hall or around the world, Lotus Sametime can help you communicate better than ever before. This means you can implement a new sales program for your field sales force in hours, instead of weeks. Or offer immediate, real-time assistance to an online Web site customer, instead of making them wait for a return e-mail or phone call. The bottom line? The Sametime product family from Lotus delivers real-time collaboration that's fit for business. Your business.

The three foundations of real-time collaboration are Awareness, Conversation, and Shared Objects. Awareness means you know who's online and who may be working on the same project as you. Once you're aware of someone, you can easily start a conversation using instant text messages or a chat session involving many people. Sametime's Shared Object capability enables others to share live documents or applications.

Version 1.5 is packed with new functionality as well as enhancements to existing technology to make it a must-have for organizations.
