Company description

Personall is a software editor and provides Knowledge Networks Solutions. KN Solutions are personal pages for intranet and internet sites that allows, mass customization, smart knowledge sharing. All the rights are managed by tags within the solution which is an innovation.

KNS are installed on site behind firewalls to respect the company confidentiality and security constraints.

Companies can let the user free to customize his pages under his monitoring.

Current organizations are top down ans the hierarchy does not help to put the user at the centre of the Enterprise. Knowledge sharing, collaborative work, social network are emerging from users and companies has to innovate and provide solutions to keep control on knowledge and information.

Without to be intrusive, Personall KNS addresses these needs and allows companies to reduce costs, keep innovation within the departments and perform the collective intelligence.

Merging collaborative work, information aggregation, business integrated portal and application mashups, is the key for employees to make efficient decisions and to perform with reduced budgets.

 

All different relevant applications form large audience concepts brought users to use those for their daily business needs but without integration of business applications and company contexts. The companies could not valorize and control the information sharings, and the new emerging organizations… We decided to propose a solution which answers to all this needs and to mashup all business and collaborative applications within a unik integrated but not intrusive portal.
