Team workspaces let you create digital offices where local and global team members can gather online to coordinate their efforts and bring together the right information, resources, and skill sets for a project, purpose, or topic. They can take advantage of all of Vibe’s collaboration and productivity tools.

It's self-service simple to create custom web landing pages in Vibe as the door into team, project, or organizational work areas.

You can customize your workspaces to include graphics and text elements that communicate your team’s or your organization’s brand to others.
Vibe allows you to easily work with mixed teams and include outside workers. Because guest and external users are free to add to Vibe, you can include contractors, temporary workers, and others outside your organization in any of your teams at any time.
Quickly staff up with temporary employees, work collaboratively with other organizations, or give guest access to visiting or specialty workers simply by adding them to the Vibe system. Vibe sends them an email, they join, and you can get started working together immediately.
The dashboard consolidates the most important and relevant information you need into a single view. This makes it easy to track your teams and projects, immediately letting you know what's new, summarizing your tasks and calendar, and letting you stay informed about everything of interest that is going on in your organization and teams.
The relevance dashboard's “What's Hot” area shows you the most popular blogs, discussions, documents, workspaces, and content in your teams or organization.

Folders make it easy to store and manage all of your content. They can contain documents, files, wikis, discussions, calendars, tasks, milestones, blogs, surveys, photos, and other content. You can also create accessory folders that can display data from external sources, such as email, databases, and productivity applications.
Vibe indexes all content in a single easy-to-use search index, making it easy to find the relevant knowledge and resources that team members need to be efficient and productive.

Built-in identity and security controls allow you to confidently share your valuable legacy of insights and knowledge with authorized team members.
You can make areas on your Vibe workspace accessible to designated "guest users." This can be helpful in organizations like government and educational institutions that have Vibe sites for their employees, but also want to make certain information available to the public, such as citizens or the general student body.
Vibe gives you greater control of your documents' lifecycles by providing a central workspace for document sharing, collaborating, reviewing, and revising.

Users and organizations can rest assured that their content is completely secure. They can set access rights for individuals or groups with just a few clicks. This means that if someone searches for a document but doesn't have rights to view it, it won't even appear in their search results.
Built-in workflow capabilities help you automate, streamline, and enhance processes to save time, eliminate errors, and improve the overall efficiency of your teams and users.

Vibe makes it easy to build and customize powerful workflows, but we also provide a growing library of downloadable workflows and entry forms so that your workflow creation doesn't have to begin from scratch.
You can extend your workflows to perform predefined actions such as communicate, launch, pass data, or receive data from other workflows or third-party applications.
You and your teams can monitor and manage your workflows through custom workflow dashboards. Dashboards give authorized team members or managers a summary view of workflow status. For example, they can let helpdesk managers see at a glance how many tickets are in the queue, waiting to be assigned, or have already been resolved.
