Create a public or private community portal

Claromentis’ Community Portal software can be presented as either a public or private-facing site. The in-built permission system allows community administrators to lock down specific content areas through the allocation of detailed permission rights to specific community users or groups. Create an open or private community to suit the needs of your community members.

Community knowledge base and FAQs

Community-based articles can be easily created in the Claromentis knowledge base application using a What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get Editor. A range of media types such as videos and images can additionally be added to articles along with Google Maps. Community members can post responses and feedback concerning each article in the knowledge base’s collaboration area.

Follow community members and 'like' posts

Social networking features such as the ability to ‘like’ posts, follow community members and view user activity streams, help to build an online collaborative community. Once a community user has ‘liked’ a post, or tagged a user, a notification is automatically issued to the author. The frequency and method in which notifications are issued can be configured to suit the individual needs of each community member.
