Wikis in the company
The right wiki for you
Have you thought about a wiki for your company? The online encyclopedia Wikipedia has achieved great success, mainly because it allows users to add their own contributions and comment on other articles, and the ability to directly edit them. Although wikis are easy to start using, the framework needs to be adapted to the specific requirements of your company. We choose the wiki that suits your company according to your application – so you can start your wiki within a week!
What is the purpose of a wiki?
The good thing about a wiki solution is that it is so versatile: either with many functions and features, or as a very lean version – for small businesses to big corporations. We work with you to find the best solution and configure it. This usually only requires a few days.
Applications of wikis
- Access to corporate knowledge (find and write documentation and information)
- Supervise your quality management (access all processes and keep track of changes)
- Project work and operational project management (document progress and tasks of your projects)
With a suitable wiki solution, every employee in your company can actively participate in the exchange of knowledge, and you get quick access to the information you really need through a structured repository. The use of wiki software helps you analyze, structure, propagate and transfer knowledge and experience. This not only sustainably increases motivation, but also supports communication between colleagues. With Enterprise wikis, it is also possible to assign specific rights to individual users or groups. We offer the entire solution spectrum.
Mit einer passenden Wiki-Lösung kann sich jeder Mitarbeiter Ihres Unternehmens aktiv am Wissensaustausch beteiligen. Sie erhalten durch eine strukturierte Ablage schneller Zugriff zu den Informationen die Sie wirklich benötigen. Der Einsatz einer Wiki-Software hilft Ihnen bei der Analyse, der Strukturierung, der Vermehrung und dem Transfer von Wissen und Erfahrungen. Das erhöht nicht nur nachhaltig die Motivation, sondern unterstützt auch die Kommunikation untereinander. Mit Enterprise-Wikis ist es darüber hinaus möglich, spezielle Rechte für einzelne Benutzer oder Gruppen zu vergeben. Wir bieten Ihnen das gesamte Lösungsspektrum an.

Wiki success stories from our customers
Along with some well-known customers, we also use a configured wiki for our own structures and workflows, and specially created templates in our company. Our Wiki lives through the participation of everyone, and evolves constantly. Based on our own experience with wikis, we are even better able to address the needs of our customers and develop new solutions.
Introduction of a registry wiki for a client
We created a comprehensive and clear company wiki for a well-known tax office, which has been approved by all employees and is regularly used. The quality of the processes was ensured by proper documentation and was rated as very positive by the ISO 9001 Auditor.
Quote: “In hindsight, I can speak of a clear effort. The original concerns were quickly resolved by a competent consulting service. The employees keep the new tool alive! Due to its similarity to social networks, particularly young employees have a good relationship with the wiki. Use of this new and simple knowledge management tool is quickly learned through simple operation and handling. And the best part is that through the revision security and other features, everything is comprehensible and protected. “
