PAVONE OfficeGateway 10: A flexible interface for the integration of the Office suites into IBM Lotus Domino
08/30/2011
Paderborn, Germany – Many companies have difficulty using important data from their IBM Lotus Notes/Domino environment for their correspondence with customers and business partners. Especially since the printing properties of Lotus Notes do not support the popular and convenient formatting options, templates and functions of Office suites, such as Microsoft Office or OpenOffice. In order to allow companies to take advantage of this convenience, PAVONE AG, GBS Enterprises’ division for the optimization of business processes, now provides the flexible interface PAVONE OfficeGateway10.
With PAVONE OfficeGateway 10, the Office suites can be seamlessly and quickly integrated into Lotus Notes/Domino. Companies can thus compile important information from the various Lotus databases at all times and design them for presentation in their Office Suites by simply accessing existing templates in Microsoft Office and OpenOffice. “With our Gateway solution, we provide companies with the best of two worlds: The convenient text processing and calculation features of the tried-and-tested Office suites, and the communication, coordination and knowledge management of the established Lotus Notes/Domino platform”, says Björn Reinhold, Head of Product Management at PAVONE, pointing out the multiple advantages of PAVONE OfficeGateway 10.
The result is a facilitated and accelerated correspondence and evaluation of Lotus data in the company. Since the solution is a standardized and configurable interface, it can be customized by the enterprise. The deployment of the new XPages technology for the technical operation of PAVONE OfficeGateway 10 leads to both, a drastic reduction of IT costs and an increase in productivity, because the solution can be accessed by employees via browser. PAVONE OfficeGateway is a standard feature of PAVONE’s DMS, CRM and project management solutions. However, it can also be integrated into other existing management systems, thus allowing the company to protect the investments they have already made.
