This week we go commercial with our new enterprise social platform – Rabbit. In testing status updates were one of the most popular features – we had them built in right from the start of our platform, as well as widgets to view other related activities from file creation to calendar updates across the business or groups. Why do people like it – it’s the instant communication that they’ve loved with twitter and facebook updates, but it’s ’secure’ in the business. When you’ve a multinational multisite business it’s amazing what information can get transmitted via these micro-updates – informal information flow really is the way forward.

Richard, I agree Cyn does have a nice looking stand alone client. However, you are not comparing like offerings in your “Its completely free” claim.

According to the Cyn web site, their enterprise offerings are:
$6250 per year for appliance, or $889/month.

That is not exactly free in my math.

As I mentioned below, the cost is not just for Signals. It is for all of Socialtext (wiki, blogs, dashboards, profiles, social networking, activity streams, desktop client, etc, etc, etc) which can be used securely both behind the firewall and externally.

If you would like to compare the cost to “free microblogging solutions” which you download, install, configure, manage, and maintain on your own, you need to factor in the costs of your hardware, and your administration time. Then repeat that for your wiki solution, your blogging solution, your directory, etc.

Now, what are your true costs?

If you go with another vendor, you do not have to pay $15/employee if you just want the microblogging feature.

For example, we use Present.ly (a microbloggging tool for the enterprise), and that is $1/employee, and it provides the privacy you need since it works behind the firewall. And we created groups based on our projects and departments. Moreover, it can also be used as an interface to the customer on specific projects. So many different possibilities available – Intridea, Inc. (created Present.ly) works with you to customize the tools based on needs and preferences.
