Lotus Quickr Connectors make it easy to use team collaboration along with your e-mail software, whether you use IBM Lotus Notes or Microsoft Outlook.
For example, you can access your team places, shared content and even collaborate from your inbox, and you don't need to stop what you are doing and switch applications.
That means you can focus on the task at hand, you can use the software you already know, and you can still share your ideas and work with your extended team.
You can, for instance, easily move an attachment from an e-mail message into a shared document library -- so that your team will receive a link to your file, rather than the file itself -- and that means a leaner, trimmer inbox for the whole team.
Plus, the team always knows where to get the most recent and up-to-date information, since the document, attachment, or file is kept in the shared Lotus Quickr place.
This screenshot shows what it looks like when you use the Connector to add Places to your Lotus Notes sidebar, and also shows the button you click to insert a link to a document in a Lotus Notes e-mail message.
Besides the connector for Lotus Sametime, there are four other Lotus Quickr connectors:
- Productivity: Lotus Quickr works with Microsoft Office and Lotus Symphony
- Lotus Sametime: realtime and team collaboration, working together
