Get started with Social Collaboration

Find. Like. Share. All in one place.

Every day you handle information that is, or is not, relevant to you and the organization you’re working within. Every day you Find, Like and Share things.

Luckily, Find, Like and Share is also exactly what you do when you work with Social Collaboration. In Incentive you work just as you would do when you’re off work and spend time on Twitter, Facebook or Google Plus – but work-related, of course.

When you master the art of true Social Collaboration, we call you a Champ.
In order to become a Champ, all you need is a good Incentive.

Collaborate

People collaborate all the time, they just don’t do it very effectively.

What we really want to do when we collaborate is doing our part of a job task, and get credit for it.

Collaboration is about doing great things together.

Social Collaboration is about doing great things together – and showing each other appreciation for it; showing how it’s relevant.

When people understand their role and understand how other people make use of it, they want to collaborate without being told. That is true Social Collaboration. That is Incentive.

Share

Sharing important pieces of information is vital for all organization.

If every organization really knew what it actually knows, we would see much smarter decisions. Many think smarter than few.

Wikis are good for sharing knowledge that anybody can access or contribute to. Blogging is a great way of reporting from a project or a department. An Activity Stream is the fastest way of getting help or discussing a subject, and Apps are good for solving specific routine-based tasks, among other things.

People want to share – they want to become Collaborative Champs. They just need the right Incentive.

Get social

Information is only relevant when it’s being used.

A large part of Incentive is all about recommending stuff other people share. Recommending something is not only showing appreciation, it is also a sign that something is useful and contributes to a common goal.

Socialization in an organization shouldn’t start and end with the coffee break; it should be an ongoing process throughout all the working hours of the day. In Incentive the socialization process never pauses – it's an important incentive in people’s daily work lives.

Any Champ knows that. Do you?

Go viral

A Social Collaboration tool, such as Incentive, is of no use when left empty.

From the very start Incentive is therefore full of easy ways to encourage people to join, share, like and become Champs.

We strive to keep Social Collaboration as frictionless as humanly possible; invite people with a click, share without restrictions per default, and encourage your whole organization to act as Champs.

World class support

Free for all registered users. We think that is a nice way of showing that we really care about you.

Get support from the excellent Incentive team, consisting only of Champs.

You reach our support through a number of different channels; Twitter, e-mail, or within Incentive itself.

Should none of these channels suit you or your business needs, feel free to offer more support solutions for us to consider.

Class A interface

We want the Incentive experience to be smooth, beautiful and frictionless.

In the old days, users were forced to adapt to the software instead of the other way around. Sadly, this is very common still.

Social Collaboration tools must follow the same behavioral pattern that humans do, in order to become successful. To this extent, much focus has been given the graphical user interface througout Incentive.

Own your own data

Sometimes people ask us why Incentive is not a Software-as-a-Service product in the cloud.

The simple answer to that is that we want you to own your own data. We have no business with your data.

If we some time in the future decide that we want to do something else with our lives, you shouldn’t suffer. What you’ve bought is yours, and no matter what we will do in the future – even though we will do this for many years – we want you to be sure that you own your stuff completely independent of us.

Incentive is a server software

This means that you can’t just download it and install on your computer. Rather you need to take it to your IT-manager and he or she will then set it up for you in your own IT-environment, within your own walls (which include the firewall).

Involving IT early = win

The reason we do it this way is that we want your IT-people to be happy from the beginning.

In short; involving IT early = win.

Download

Incentive is, however, very easy to install and get running. Download the installation package, give it to your IT-manager – and start collaboration within minutes.
