Interact Software vs. OpenText Vibe

Great for social media quizzes, shopping guides, lead qualification, progressive profiling, and any application where asking a series of questions can be used to gain a better understanding of customers and contacts.

I think Micro Focus Vibe is very well suited for organizations that work in a team collaboration front and have to share documents. I think this really shines in organizations that have a standard set of information that gets lost in the sauce because of the sheer amount of people in an organization. In this case, the Wiki is very helpful in this setting. I wouldn't quite recommend this site for video production houses unless you are patient enough to correlate your needs to the many many features available through Vibe...because it all boils down to patience.

• The system was particularly useful during the coronavirus pandemic as it helped foster communication between colleagues and allowed us to create various fun and interactive morale-boosting activities.
• The service desk is responsive and Interact is quick to point out any service issues.

• Novell Vibe connects GroupWise mail with Vibe natively which means you can access Vibe from within the mail product.
• Once forms and workflows are set up, the access structure on who sees what or not is very effective.
• You can use Novell Vibe as your main intranet with everything from wiki's, blogging and more fully automated and still in synch with your internal organisational structure.
• After playing with it for a while i found that through jsp it is highly configurable.

• Payment steps
• Pipedrive integration
• Google tag manager integration

• The most pressing improvement is in printing. In speaking with Novell techs Vibe was designed as a web tool, no paper necessary. However in the real world our folks love their paper printouts. Vibe utilizes views for various functions. A print view that's easily configured would be an awesome upgrade.
• Customized in JSP. Vibe is completely customized using JSP. I don't know it. I'm not a programmer. I can work things out, but programming isn't my forte.

It meets our current business needs and provides the scalability we need for future growth. It can be installed on Windows or Linux (Our alpha install was on Linux. Our beta was on Windows. We went with Windows). There are additional features, and application integrations, that we haven't taken advantage as of yet due to the lack of current business needs.

At this moment it still looks you need to do a lot to be able to use it and to be honest that time should be used for work not for configuring a communication tool for the business. Yes I understand that it takes time to learn something to use in the organisation , but with this tool I see the help desk having to answer a lot of questions on how to use it or once someone has done something how to undo it.

The implementation was good, it is the follow up that we need to do ourselves that takes time and effort.

Interact is great for basic integrated quizzes and forms. The other tools are much more robust in terms of mobile friendliness, integrated payment steps, file upload, Google Tag Manager integration (track and segment via your favorite marketing automation platform), etc. Typeform is a much more robust platform.

The main alternatives were Sharepoint or creating a custom Drupal install. Sharepoint was too expensive and didn't fit into our Novell environment. The Drupal solution we found was beyond our technical ability.

• In my very particular opinion, we can say that this tool has not generated any negative aspect for us, so we are comfortable.
