The May release is here, and boy are we thrilled to finally be able to share it with you! We hope you are as excited about this release as we are!

Clearvale is for Business. Clearvale’s cutting edge technology allows you to run your business better by providing tools to let you easily manage multiple enterprise social networks. By using an ecosystem, your network members share their profile and documents as needed across all networks in your ecosystem. Ecosystems make it easy to handle the shared information seamlessly. Ecosystems are a Premium Service. Contact BroadVision about setting up your own ecosystem.

Clearvale is a Place. When you visit Clearvale, you visit your information place. Information within Clearvale is easier than ever to find and manage because it is organized into distinct spaces:

• Network space. Use this space for content that you want to share with network members.
• Community spaces. Use these spaces for content that you want to share with groups of community members.
• Member Profile space. Use this space for your personal content. Use your profile page to share your personal information with network members.

Content spaces help you manage and share not only your files but your blogs as well.

Clearvale is for Content Sharing. Clearvale offers powerful file sharing abilities. When you upload a file, you can quickly determine who is able to read or edit the file by how you share it. You can share a file with the network space, a specific community, or to select network members. You control whether the file is shared for reading only, or for editing too. Once you share a file, the file looks as if it resides in the space with which you shared it.

Clearvale is for Integration. Through powerful APIs that we provide, you can integrate Clearvale or specific aspects of Clearvale into your own system. For example, you can integrate a series of forum widgets into your application. The APIs are based on the REST architecture, a standard in web services.

Clearvale is for Collaboration. Collaborate even more in this release by using multiple forums in your network or community spaces. For example, you can add a forum for product questions and another as a suggestion box. Get your network members collaborating and improve your business. Microblogs also encourage collaboration among network contacts, making it easy to keep up with what others in the network are working on.
