On July 25th IBM announced the availability of IBM Connections Engagement Center. This is the first release of this optional enhancement to IBM Connections since IBM acquired the software from TIMETOACT back in May. I could not find any information about Engagement Center on the IBM Connections website, but you can learn more about it in this SlideShare presentation.
Constellation Research believes IBM Connections customers will see value in this add-on, as it provides additional intranet and extranet functionality that helps Connections compete with community software such as Microsoft SharePoint, Salesforce Community Cloud, Jive Software, ThoughtFarmer, Igloo and Jostle.
