Users can create private and shared notes stored in a server workgroup database. Net Notions users may add, delete, and modify workgroup notes with changes being replicated to workgroup users in real time. This tool is enormously useful for workgroups who need to gain consensus on web site content or collaboratively research the Internet.
The strategic relationship between Lotus and Sideware Systems means that cutting edge products like Net Notions can be added to Domino.Applications. Organizations using e-business solutions developed with Domino.Merchant, Lotus' Domino-based business solution for Internet commerce, can use Net Notions as an instant communications vehicle that attaches comments onto individual product pages. With the capabilities of storing Net Notions messages in the Lotus Notes database, Net Notions would extend the reach of Domino's function beyond web sites created by Domino.Merchant.
Net Notions eliminates the need to send large graphic files contained in Web pages. The product preserves scarce bandwidth, lets team members collaborate within the context of up to the minute Web content and avoids the need for a special application to open graphic files contained in e-mails.
