Grouputer Virtual Workshops Go Beyond Web Conferencing
Grouputer is an advanced e-collaboration programs that accelerates and improves decision making and learning in local and distributed workshops, meetings, surveys and training.
The Grouputer application solves the problem of formulating and documenting complex plans in virtual workshops by combining standard web conferencing tools with GDSS (Group Decision Support System) tools in a single software application.
Customers describe Grouputer as “web conferencing on steroids" because it enables complex planning to be conducted in virtual workshops that would otherwise require lengthy and expensive face-to-face meetings.
While web conferencing tools enable information and expertise sharing in presentations, documents and the web, GDSS tools actively engage participants in collaborative critical thinking activities achieving better solutions, with buy in and commitment.
Ideas from team members are recorded in text and processed using problem solving and planning methods such as agenda setting, brainstorming, categorizing, prioritizing, evaluation and action planning.
Formatted reports document workshop output ready for immediate distribution. A Process Builder is available to template meeting methodologies and training programs for repeat use and corporate consistency.
According to Gartner, when web conferencing tools are combined with GDSS meeting performance is enhanced and there are fewer dysfunctional meetings.
Fortune 500 companies, Defence, and consultants use Grouputer in intensive planning projects in real time or at times convenient to participants.
Customer applications include business and process improvement, Six Sigma/Lean, risk and project management and strategy development for sales, marketing, HR, information technology and operations.
Grouputer offers program and application security and is available as a hosted service and perpetual licence.
