The Reviews Are In

A few weeks ago we published our screencast, and so far the feedback has been tremendously good:

Techcrunch writes "The UI is as beautiful as the concept; it’s very simple to understand and use, the kind of thing that non-technical users won’t be scared of at all. ... Many people really like online collaboration and document development systems, but security has been a major impediment for enterprise use. The option of getting a SystemOne box on site could be a great solution to that problem. ... the fundamental concept of SystemOne is great."

Thomas Vander Wal
says "System One has all the web 2.0 buzzwords under the hood, but they focus on a simple to use tool that pulls together the best of the new components, but only where it makes sense to create a simple tool that addresses complex problems."

Jerry Bowles draws a wonderful analogy "Think of how much more productive your organization would be if everyone worked at the same level of your star performers. Imagine an industrial-strength enterprise app that is so simple to use that it requires no training or special knowledge to learn and so smart that it makes all users instantly more productive? Imagine the knowledge office equivalent of the supermarket revolution that turned every checker into a whiz."

"Nowhere in the description of System One does the word "wiki" appear. And that's a good thing. Because "wiki" as such is an Albatross. ... Looking forward to seeing the benefits of wikis leave their garden of semi-usefulness, and permeate the way we interact with information." Nadav Savio asserts.

Chris Shipley's observation was "Software, particularly those applications delivered as a service, is increasingly taking advantage of its inherent connectivity to build collaboration into applications. We see this new trend in several applications at DEMOfall, and none reflect it more clearly than System One."

Richard MacManus' take is "The concept of a search engine that can search across the many and varied systems inside a company firewall is a very appealing one. System One does this, but also extends it to a true read/write app - enabling people to take notes and share them with their workmates. This is a very promising piece of software..."

And Danny Ayers was the first one to notice "For a start there's seamless integration of enterprise info and authoring with real-time analysis of what you write. Although there are some familiar technologies involved as well (Wiki/blogging, syndication etc), the tech is presented in a way that from a user's point of view, it gets out of the way and just works. "

Thanks to everybody who wrote so far, we'll continue to work hard!
