Build an Employee Knowledge Network on top of your existing IBM Lotus software architecture.

Many leading IBM* Lotus* customers have deployed AskMe Enterprise to facilitate knowledge exchanges, capture those exchanges, and spread best practices throughout their organizations. While AskMe Enterprise provides a complete solution, some of our IBM Lotus customers have chosen to integrate AskMe Enterprise with their installed Lotus products. AskMe Enterprise provides a number of out-of-box integration points for customers running in an IBM Lotus environment.

Integrates with Lotus Notes* and Domino Mail Server to enable users to submit questions or receive system notifications via e-mail. Integrates with Lotus Domino* Directory and LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol). This integration ensures seamless authentication for your users, and it serves as the basis for building expertise profiles.
Combines search results from AskMe Enterprise knowledgebase with those from Lotus Domino, Lotus Domino.doc*, and Lotus QuickPlace* repositories. This integration helps knowledge seekers find documents related to their queries.
Analyzes and mines Lotus Domino databases, Lotus Domino Mail Server, Lotus Domino.doc, and Lotus QuickPlace to profile users and their expertise. System managers can perform one-time or periodic imports, or they can configure AskMe Enterprise to perform auto-profiling of employees.  AskMe Enterprise uses these profiles to help knowledge seekers find relevant experts who can provide assistance.
 

In addition to the out-of-box integration, enterprises can leverage the AskMe Professional Services team to provide integration with other IBM Lotus products. For example, enterprises using Lotus Discovery Server* (LDS) can integrate AskMe Enterprise to leverage advanced capabilities not present in LDS, such as a conversation engine, ROI engine, or reputation management feature suite.  Or, enterprises can integrate AskMe Enterprise with Sametime* to integrate presence information on AskMe profile pages and to capture Sametime instant messaging sessions in the AskMe Enterprise knowledgebase.

Integrates with Lotus Technologies

AskMe Enterprise combines search results from its own knowledgebase, Domino, and QuickPlace.  For expertise profiling, AskMe Enterprise can draw from Domino, QuickPlace, and the Domino Directory.  Users can access AskMe Enterprise through their Lotus Notes e-mail, a Web browser, or PDA.

Users can submit questions to AskMe Enterprise and receive pointers to relevant documents and experts directly from their Lotus Notes e-mail.  AskMe Enterprise manages the conversation on the back-end with a powerful business rules and workflow engine to manage notifications, approvals, and escalations.
