OfficeMedium //

A Social Network For Your Office

Thursday, December 3, 2009

OfficeMedium is one of a growing collection of tools that allows businesses to use social networking concepts to create stronger connections between employees. Like Yammer and Cubetree, OfficeMedium lets you create an internal social network for your company, allowing you and your employees to post status updates, messages and blog entries.  You can also use OfficeMedium to share files, schedule company events, assign tasks and create polls to test out ideas.  Most types of content can be tagged, and a global search feature makes it easy to find the content you’re looking for.

Like most of its siblings, OfficeMedium has a dashboard that lets you track current activity-co-workers’ statuses, your calender, etc. One feature that makes OfficeMedium unique is the ability to post content that other members need to see and direct it to their attention, to make sure that it doesn’t get overlooked.

With OfficeMedium, you can also create limited-access accounts for clients and customers, so they can check in on projects. However, OfficeMedium is a little bit more expensive than its closest competitor, Cubetree- $6 per use per month plus $1 per GB of memory used versus Cubetree’s  $5.00 per user.

OfficeMedium does offer a 30-day free trial, but you do have to enter in your credit card information to try it.

What do you think of Office Medium?  Do you think the features are worth the extra money? Let us know in the comments!
