Virtual Global Releases TeamIntel 2004i for Virtual Project Teams

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) May 5, 2004 -- Virtual Global Technologies, a virtual team solution provider, announced today the release of TeamIntel� 2004i, a software system for uniting distributed project teams. Virtual project teams offer businesses an affordable way to bring team members closer together, so that they can be more productive. They are becoming increasingly popular as trends advance toward employee empowerment, matrix management and high costs of travel, which also contribute to information disparity.

TeamIntel allows distributed team members to convene in a virtual meeting place, where they collaborate on complex projects. Employees and contractors use TeamIntel to perform interoffice tasking, messaging, form routing and document sharing. Managers can then oversee team members and track status. Decision makers use the business intelligence tools to report on performance trends. �We attempted to capture the very essence of a real physical team,� says Cary Landis, Product Manager for Virtual Global. �Even small and midsize businesses are global today, and tools for sharing are simply not enough.�



The 2004i release includes several enhancements. The unique 2-way �virtual workshop� interface allows users to quickly tab between a �project view� and a �team view.� The enhanced collaboration toolkit includes instant messaging and improved document versioning. Advanced features include programmatic customization and legacy integration, workflow, remote Web access, SQL Server scalability and hierarchical team support.

Three editions of TeamIntel are available: Enterprise, Midsize, and Small Business. With installations in manufacturing, law enforcement, campaign teams and other segments, TeamIntel is highly adaptable to various types of organizations. Pricing starts at $900 for 5 users.
