"Jive is committed to setting the standard for Social Business innovation," said Brian Roddy, Senior Vice President of Engineering at Jive. "Social media marketing and mobile functionality are fundamental building blocks for every social business. Jive is breaking new ground by enabling Facebook, Twitter and the broad social web as well as the iPhone, iPad, BlackBerry and Android - all integrated into a single Social Business platform."
"We live in a connected, always-on business environment," said Michael Fauscette, Group VP, Software Business Solutions at IDC. "To be successful, businesses need to be able to respond real-time to any conversations happening on the broad social web that could materially impact their brand, customer relationships and loyalty."
Jive Social Media Engagement 4.5: Real Time Monitoring and Response
Jive Social Media Engagement enables companies to monitor and respond real-time to conversations taking place on social sites like Facebook and Twitter. They can now act faster than ever before in response to online discussions about products, services and brands to strengthen customer relationships, nurture brand champions and capture innovative ideas.
The new release brings unmatched Facebook fan page monitoring and engagement, where companies can monitor, track and respond to every conversation on a Facebook fan page without having to set up a search for specific key words.
"Monitoring and engaging in conversations on Facebook has become a critical component of our online strategy," said Sarah Smith, Community Manager at Sprint. "With Jive, we now have a central hub for our team to engage, archive conversations and have real-time access to trend reports that highlight everything from sentiment to key influencers."
Jive is introducing new packaging and licensing for social media monitoring and engagement. The company now offers both a stand-alone social media engagement solution along with the option to integrate Jive Social Media Engagement with its broader Jive Engage Platform for an unlimited number of users.
Unlike most offerings in the market, Jive Social Media Engagement provides unlimited keyword tracking and search results, making it cost-effective to monitor and engage across the social web. This dramatically increases the likelihood that social media monitoring and engagement will impact key business imperatives, from Brand Management to Social Customer Service.
Jive Social Media Engagement 4.5 is available today.
Jive Mobile 4.5: Cross Platform Support
Jive Mobile extends the Jive experience to customers looking to use their mobile devices to collaborate on the go. In addition to the Jive iPhone application launched at JiveWorld09, the new Jive Mobile release will support iPad, Android, BlackBerry and other devices using mobile web browsers. Jive's 3,000 communities and 15 million users will be able to access Jive from their mobile devices, for seamless, everywhere access to critical information.
Jive Mobile will feature real-time community activity streams, status updates and comments on content, as well as access to experts and key information through powerful search capabilities. It will provide the capability to tailor the look and feel of the Jive mobile application. Companies will be able to customize their community to reflect their brand characteristics, for a personalized mobile experience for their customers and partners. Jive Mobile will also include Mobile Web support based on HTML5 for devices with advanced mobile web browsers.
