Klaxoon Introduces Engage Edition, the New Generation of Its Workshop Platform

With major updates on Board Hybrid, Session, Memo, Question, up to the Network features, Engage Edition represents Klaxoon’s biggest technology improvement to date.

And it’s all designed to facilitate and heighten team engagement in any type of workshop.

BOSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Klaxoon, the hybrid collaborative work leader, has today launched the brand-new edition of its Workshop Platform, the most powerful tool enabling teams to work with unprecedented levels of efficiency and engagement. Unveiled in its first version last November, the Workshop Platform is already being used by millions of people across the globe. Easier, smarter, and faster, Engage Edition puts team engagement back at its very core, thanks to 100 new features contained within a single workspace.

The Workshop Platform – Engage Edition has been designed to boost teamwork and collaboration. Tested in its beta version by more than 1,000 global users, it includes a plethora of new features. In order for teams to reach the highest level of engagement, all key aspects of the Workshop Platform have been reinforced: usage simplicity, smooth experience, reduced time losses, increased impact, team bonding from anywhere at any time. The Board Hybrid update offers 20% more space and even more intuitive navigation. Session goes further, now comprising Live (Klaxoon’s built-in video conferencing tool) and the ability to load any type of document for broadcasting. Network steps up its game, thanks to improved filtering and activity organization to optimize workshop follow-ups. All the consolidated data and stats obtained through Memo and Question will reinforce team engagement analysis.

Engagement is key for team performance. Expressing oneself, contributing, interacting, all in order to make decisions and lead efficient problem-solving projects. This most recent generation of the Workshop Platform – Engage Edition frees all potential, whether individuals or collective. The platform stimulates operational and commercial performance for all the organizations that focus on building strong connections with stakeholders. There are multiple benefits to this platform, from carbon footprint reduction to employee experience, and talent retention.

“When the pandemic began, all organizations were confronted with the fact that work had changed. Modern teamwork is now hybrid and flexible. The existing tools upon which teams relied before Covid-19 are no longer sufficient to tackle today’s challenges. The new ways of working have made the shift from hard work to smart work,” says Matthieu Beucher, CEO and founder of Klaxoon. “All teams need solid and intuitive tools to move forward – where and when they want to. Collaboration must be engaging, visual, and efficient. Today, users of the Workshop Platform would describe it as the hub between colleagues, customers, and suppliers. It’s become a cornerstone of their daily job.”

The Workshop Platform – Engage Edition is a global workspace useful for every type of workshop – workshops being the collective work times that are becoming the new pillars of collaboration in organizations, such as: project management, customer or team meetings, trainings, reviews, ideation, or design thinking workshops. The platform is 100% transverse: all businesses, all departments, all organizations can adopt it very easily. Its purpose is to engage the teams no matter where from and to work efficiently (synchronously or asynchronously) on any screen format, with unprecedented levels of efficiency and engagement.
