Groove Networks is updating its collaboration software this week, releasing a beta version of Groove 3.0. It is available to licensed users of Groove version 2.0 and higher, and the final version is expected to roll out in early summer.
Groove’s software, which was first released in 2000, uses a peer-to-peer networking model to connect users. Groove Workspaces serve as virtual offices, where geographically dispersed coworkers can store files and folders, save threaded discussions, share calendars, track project information and timelines, meet online, share a whiteboard, and communicate through chat and instant messenger.
New in version 3.0 are secure file- and folder-sharing capabilities; a Groove LaunchPad for easier organization and navigation; and expanded user alerts. A new forms-building tool lets users easily create applications for capturing, tracking, and sharing information among users.
