harmon.ie (pronounced ‘harmony’) product family brings enterprise collaboration to every business user by transforming the email client into a collaboration and social workspace, called ‘social email.’
Recent research shows that the typical business user toggles between windows 37 times an hour ; that means a context switch approximately every minute and a half. With this level of distraction, it is no wonder so many business users find it hard to get work done. New collaboration platforms introduce yet one more interface, thereby exacerbating the problem. Business users, who resist changing their everyday work habits; do not use the new tools. This is why user adoption has become the biggest obstacle to enterprise collaboration.
harmon.ie solves the user adoption problem by transforming Microsoft Outlook® and Lotus Notes® into collaboration consoles by bringing new social and collaboration platforms (like SharePoint and Google Docs) right into the familiar email interface, thereby enabling the collaboration experience while preserving user context.
