Vignette Community Services
Web users are so accustomed to getting advice and guidance from their peers that they expect every online experience, including yours, to offer Web 2.0 tools like ratings, reviews, commenting and tagging of content. Vignette Community Services makes these tools available in a single offering that can be added to virtually any Web site.
Web 2.0 social tools can improve any Web experience
Inside your business. A corporation made up of knowledge workers allows colleagues to rate analyst reports, helping their sales and strategy organization find the most relevant content fast and at the click of a mouse.
To help new residents. A municipal Web site enables rating and ranking of content like DMV and property tax FAQs to help new residents make a smoother transition based on the recommendations of those that have come before.
To make big sites easier to navigate. A content-rich site, be it a cooking Web site, a video or photo Web site or even an e-periodical, tags its content and allows users to do the same so that through their personal tag cloud they find their favorite type of content easily.
Easily integrates with Vignette and other Web technologies
Vignette Community Services can be deployed into virtually any Web environment. Vignette customers can leverage the product's lightweight Web services approach to integrate Vignette Community Services with Vignette Dynamic Site, Vignette Dynamic Portal and Vignette Portal while supporting standards-based interoperability with third party environments.

A unified framework supports all of these products allows organizations to deploy or enhance new capabilities as they are required. The entire product line relies on a single, simplified management and maintenance infrastructure.
