* Coming in 8.1 releaseEasy to start and keep going
Easy to start and keep going
Business value is not derived through technology
but rather how precisely it is applied to the
specific need
Many teams tend to work in relatively similar manners
Quickr offers a variety of business templates to accelerate the
“time to value” of the solution
Although similar, subtle differences may be needed
Quickr supports “controlled” user creation and customization…
without the need for programming
Custom templates can be created and shared
Once created or modified, templates can be used as a basis for
new placesLotus Quickr Places Favorites: the user can mark their favorite places to make it easier to find and navigate to them. My Places: where the user is listed as the owner Public Places: public access to all users of the system All: places the user has access to whether public or restricted
Many to choose from out-of-the-box
Ships with over 25 Templates
Portable, persistent and re-usableAnd creating a place is as easy as 1 – 2 – 3
Pick your template
Give it a name
Go to the place…it’s ready for useAnd customizing it is just as easy Modify membership to a place Add new components Customize the theme Modify visibility of particular pages and components Tailor individual components Add additional information contributed via RSS feeds and feed reader portlet Setting of Policy information on an application
Meets personal & team needs
Meets personal & team needs
Much of collaboration is communication
about Content
Most team activities require the ability to
manage and control documents and assorted
electronic files
Quickr offers basic content services which include check-in/out,
versioning, access control, etc.
And the content needs to be kept relative to the team collaboration
activities
Quickr’s integration with other Lotus solutions brings
content to all of the collaboration offeringsDocument libraries Quickly set up libraries to store and share content securely Check-in, check-out, version control Customizable views to organize content Multi-level security (library, folder, document) Search across multiple libraries Workflow for routing & approving content RSS/Atom feed support to share or consume content Extensibility: custom meta- data, document types and templates
And a place for personal content* Securely share documents with co-workers Store email attachments and send links instead
Engaging & interactive experience
Engaging & interactive experience
To empower the broadest number of people, the
system must be intuitive and inviting to use
The user experience in many business
applications, including ECM systems, are
often specialized and in some
cases complex
Quickr’s intuitive interface offers a desktop experience that
requires little or no formal training, allowing a more rapid and
wider spread deployment
The collection and serving up of information is rapidly changing
and requires a service based architecture
Quickr’s Web 2.0 architecture provides for the leveraging of some
of the latest tools and techniques of information sharing (Wikis,
Blogs, RSS feeds, etc.)A lot to choose to engage your users
Team Discussions / Forums
Keep a journal or blog of your meetings or creating discussions on different
topics effecting your team.
WIKIs (Shared Editable Pages)
A shared editing space that team members can use to create and manage
content such as designs, presentations, or other group material.
Team Calendar
Manage a community view of important events and activities that effect your
team.
Lists
Lists are simple “databases” of information such as tasks, vacation days, team
members, … that can be used to manage information simply and quickly.
RSS / ATOM Feeds
Quickr provides the ability to integrate and render feeds from your favorite
ATOM or RSS site as well as to produce a feed into your favorite feed
reader.Forums A simple way for team members to discuss topics. Can contain rich text, images, links, attachments, and sematnic tags (e.g. people tag to make names in forum text live) Exposed as a feed.
Blogs Blog component that can easily be integrated into places The place members can write entries and comment on entries Blog entries can contain rich text, images, links, and semantic tags (e.g. people tag to make names in Blog text live) Exposed as W eb UI as well as Feed
Wikis Easily integrated into places Place members can write and edit W iki pages created by other team members Pages can contain rich text, images, links, and semantic tags Stand alone W ikis possible by using a template that only contains the W iki component Exposed as W eb UI as well as Feed

Quickr services for Portal
*GOOGLE is a trademark of Google Inc.Leverages enterprise investments
Leverages enterprise investments
Quickr will bridge the gap between
Collaboration and Enterprise
Content Management
Many companies already have one or more enterprise content
management systems
Connectors are being developed to allow the ECM content to be
part of Quickr team places and collaboration activities
Information may begin as team content and become relevant to the
enterprise
Quickr’s ECM integration will allow team content to be moved or
migrated to ECM systems
And content in the ECM system is often relevant to team activities
Quickr will provide for “links” to ECM content that will behave in
the same way as its team content, thereby enabling
all of the Quickr features to be available to the ECM contentLeverage Quickr through Content Services
Lotus Quickr Connectors
are built upon a common
remote service layer
Connectors are unaware
of the backend platform
on which they operate Lotus Quickr Content Services
REST and SOAP based
interfaces are provided
ECM Implementation Domino Implementation J2EE Implementation
Interfaces are published (future) (Lotus Quickr 8.0) (Lotus Quickr 8.0)
