ThoughtFarmer makes Intranets easier with their 2.5 release

ThoughtFarmer has been on my radar since Office 2.0 last summer.  I haven’t been a huge fan of wikis, but the ThoughtFarmer system isn’t really a wiki.  It is, well, a sophisticated, easy-to-use Intranet system.

This week ThoughtFarmer has released v 2.5 of their Intranet system, which focuses on using drag-n-drop for user control giving you the information you want when you want it.

You might think that the era of the Intranet is over, but actually it’s only beginning.  When SarbOx hit the scene user control and document management became a high priority item for public companies.  Now having tight control over users, content, and revisions is key to just keeping your doors open.

The problem with a lot of “Intranet systems” has been that they aren’t great at meshing into existing systems and not the more easy buggers to use.  Believe me, back in the day I had to deal with a lot of them.

This is one thing that impressed me about ThoughtFarmer (beyond wikis is just selling them short).  It makes sense.  You can “get it” at the first look.

Even with the screen shots on their blog post I can get what I’d need to do on each screen.  Nice job guys.

Now, maybe I can get a chance to try it out live…
