Background

Knowledge communities have challenging collaboration requirements, but limited human and financial resources.

They concentrate on their scientific, technical, or social objectives.

Standard shared web hosting providers offer low cost solutions working nicely for general purpose applications.

However, sophisticated collaboration solutions need highest infrastructure performances and specific server settings that traditional shared hosting do not offer or allow.

Also, setting up the proper, specific collaboration environment generally implies a sustained internal effort or expensive external services.

Indeed, going beyond Google apps, Yahoo groups, Facebook and other general purpose solutions, mastering Linux web servers and sophisticated CMS solutions like Drupal might induce a significant investment and ongoing overhead.

Big, wealthy corporations easily cover this cost, but non for profit organizations or not well funded consortiums often resign and keep sharing an ftp account, exchanging emails and holding blind conference calls instead of adopting high end collaboration technology.

Our Mission

We created ShareOnTheWeb to address the needs of knowledge communities because we understand their problem:

  • They need high performance solutions
  • They don't have time and expertise to specify their requirements
  • They have limited investment capabilities

Our target: Organizations who want to enjoy the power of modern CMS without an IT staff to maintain their server and may gradually acquire partial or full autonomy. 

We also serve big corporations to develop imaginative or exploratory solutions.
