Clearvale provides businesses with the rules, tools, and infrastructure to instantly create high-performance enterprise social networks, while creating a more meaningful presence on the open, social Web. More than 4,000 organizations around the globe are already conducting business in Clearvale -- engaging with staff, partners, and customers in an open, navigable Web-based environment.

Businesses Want a “Place of their Own”

Business on the Web has recently evolved from a site-centric world to a network-centric world. For anyone doing anything on the Web, it’s no longer just about having a site. It’s a about having a place where you can meet and do things with your peers. Consumers have Facebook, but businesses want a place of their own -- a network of networks that better meets business objectives. That is how Clearvale was architected -- to meet the most strategic needs of the business customers, many of which need to continue engaging in the consumer Web, but recognize the need for a different place to do the things that define business -- to engage, collaborate, and sell more effectively.

The Clearvale product-and-service suite is designed to address the following enterprise needs:

A Place of One’s Own in a Scalable, Navigable Online World -- With Clearvale Ecosystems™, businesses can easily navigate from network to network throughout their entire business world. This adds great value to certain use cases -- for example, customer support and “social CRM,” where the ability to move in and out of public and private networks is critical.

“Do it Yourself” -- Creating a network in Clearvale is easy, and the environment is architected to enable anyone to create ad hoc intranets, extranets, and public-facing Web sites.

Enterprise Sense -- With more than 17 years of experience serving the enterprise software market, BroadVision has designed Clearvale to map and adapt to business processes and policies (privacy, security).

Social Sensibility -- Tapping the best thinkers and practitioners in enterprise 2.0 and business consulting, BroadVision will soon launch a community of consultants to help businesses design and execute larger initiatives.

Templated Networks -- Businesses can reduce the time to market by “cloning” pre-designed networks. Soon they will have the ability to “click-and-buy” pre-packaged, customizable networks in the app store.

Social Marketplace -- BroadVision has architected Clearvale so that businesses can connect with others outside their own ecosystems. As more businesses begin to populate Clearvale, BroadVision will begin introducing solutions for “in-world” social commerce.

The Clearvale “platform as a service” -- BroadVision will soon launch a developer community as well as the first “app store” for enterprise social networking, providing businesses with the broadest range of tools for collaboration. In addition, BroadVision will soon be opening the Clearvale API so that businesses can build and deliver new services over the Clearvale platform.
