(Nasdaq: IWOV), the leading provider of Content Infrastructure, today announced the release of TeamSite Front-Office 5.0 software, the latest edition of its document and content contribution software. The software, available immediately, offers new functionality to improve document publishing capabilities and enable expanded content contribution across the extended enterprise. (Photo: newscom.com ) TeamSite Front-Office 5.0 allows business users and Web designers to submit content directly from Microsoft Office 2000 applications, Windows Explorer, Macromedia DreamWeaver and Adobe GoLive. TeamSite Front-Office 5.0 extends a set of predefined TeamSite publishing menus, including the ability to submit content to the TeamSite server. In addition, the new product automatically classifies content to a corporate taxonomy using Interwoven's advanced metadata management software, MetaTagger, and has it automatically tagged for personalization. For example, a product manager can publish a white paper simply by selecting a pull-down menu item from within Microsoft Word. This functionality empowers all users to contribute content from their favorite desktop authoring tool -- without any training. Key New Features in Front-Office 5.0 Include: -- Document Publishing -- Easy document publishing of MS Word and Office documents with a single click to corporate intranets and portals. -- Document Lifecycle Management -- Enhanced workflow integration to enable document review and approval on MS Word and document expiration. -- XML Publishing for Advanced Content Reuse -- Industry-leading integration of XML publishing services directly within the MS Word environment to enable all office workers to contribute structured, reusable data to multiple eBusiness applications. "A core value proposition for content management has always been the promise of connecting content creators directly to the eBusiness application. Yet, these business users are not Web developers and can participate by using the desktop and Web applications they use every day," said Rob Perry, senior analyst at the Yankee Group. "Content management systems like TeamSite Front-Office that offer new options for submitting and modifying enable users to obtain the full value of their content infrastructure by speeding process and offloading technical workers." "The strength of an eBusiness is dependent on its ability to modify and share critical information," said Kevin Cochrane, vice president of product management at Interwoven. "With Front-Office 5.0, customers can mobilize their entire workforce to contribute to their Web initiatives across the extended enterprise while maintaining quality control."
