Client News: Team Apart brings remote workgroups together at last
August 6th, 2009 by David
A new startup we’re working with opened its doors in a closed beta today. Team Apart is launching a new service to aid remote workgroups with a pretty powerful set of features including:
- Group Video-chat
- Collaboration tools like whiteboards and shared notepads
- Persistent workspace (so shared data can remain available indefinitely)
- Real-time document and photo sharing
- Browser-based (no download, no plugins)
- FREE
Team Apart chose to launch in a closed beta to bring in a few hundred beta testers who could help them identify bugs, innovate new features, and make sure the service is robust enough for prime-time business users. Their intended audience is small businesses, distributed work groups, and client-based companies (like ad agencies and PR companies). Anyone who needs to work and meet with people who are in a different location can benefit from this product.
Team Apart is announcing their new service via their company blog, and the full text of that announcement can be found here. Some folks in the technology press have covered the news and are giving out invites to join the beta. We will update the list as coverage comes in.
