Koomb

Koomb Collaboration Software

Koomb is an enterprise level social utility that connects people with coworkers, projects, and even management of enterprise level projects spanning continents. People use Koomb just as they would Google Earth, Facebook, and SharePoint. The beauty of Koomb is it’s everything in one platform, instead ofan array of internet applications Koomb provides all of the features of Facebook, SharePoint, and Google Earth in one product. Already translated into French and Spanish.

There are many collaboration solutions on the market today, and individually they all effectively answer some of the needs of decision support in today’s marketplace. Koomb is set apart from all other competitive efforts as it is the only solution that brings many of its competitor’s benefits into one product. Combining a state-of-the-art collaboration tool set with geospatial mapping and a ‘Google Earth’ like application, Koomb is poised to simply deliver more than anyone else.

Unlike its competitors, Koomb enhances the decision making process by providing powerful tools to visualize, share and publish geographic information through interactive maps. In addition to the spatial toolkit, Koomb differentiates itself from the competition by supporting peer-to-peer virtualization of workspace content between “Product” nodes. This allows organizations to maintain strict control over their proprietary and sensitive information while sharing it with their stakeholders. Each “Product” node can push and/or pull data and information to/from other “Product” nodes. This allows users to seamlessly search across a network of “Product” nodes for information assets and add them to their workspace(s). Each “Product” node is an endpoint that can belong to one or more networks. These networks can be ad-hoc or formal and are completely configurable in terms of level of access and visibility.

Spatial Tools & Mapping

decision management and spatial mapping tools

In addition to its great document management and collaboration features, Koomb provides users with a comprehensive spatial toolkit. This spatial toolkit sets Koomb apart from its competitors and is the key differentiator. Utilizing the latest spatial open standards and protocols users can upload, import, share and publish spatial data in a variety of formats including OGC Web Map Service and Web Feature Service layers, ESRI Shapefile, MapInfo MID/MIF, Geography Mark-up Language, ECW, JPEG, GeoTiff, Google KML and ArcInfo Grid. Furthermore, spatial data stored in Koomb can easily be integrated into desktop GIS and CAD systems such as ESRI ArcInfo and Autodesk MapGuide.

Managing spatial data in Koomb is easy. The intuitive user interface allows non-technical users to upload, share and publish spatial data in just a few clicks. For more advanced users, Koomb also provides a comprehensive legend editor that allows users to not only control how their data is displayed in map but also what features are displayed and whether or not they can be queried. Koomb brings powerful spatial data management and publishing functionality to the masses and when combined with its document management and collaboration features Koomb stands on its own as a leading collaboration platform technology.

Software as a Service (Saas)

Koomb is offered on demand as a service. The SaaS model is very attractive to a wide range of customers because it significantly reduces the financial and operational burdens typically associated with hosting complex software solutions. In addition, software updates and 24/7 support are included in the monthly or annual fee. Escendo will be using a leading third party vendor to host, maintain and support our ASP infrastructure. Our servers’ hardware, operating systems and configurations will be “best of breed” to guarantee a high level of availability and exceptional performance. Inaddition we will provide full backups and disaster recovery services.
