2010 Novell Pulse Buzz2010 Novell BrainShare attendees quotes
“I like the collaborative editing--where different people are working simultaneously on documents from different places. That's wild--totally different from anything we're used to seeing”
“It gives security to what is otherwise chaos. If you leverage information right, you win. If you don't leverage it right, you'll be out of business”
“I think it's going to replace e-mail. It will definitely be a very useful too”
“As a user of SharePoint, I like the direction Novell Pulse is going in”
“The premise is actually pretty cool. A user in Novell Pulse can work in real-time on a document simulta-neously with a user on Google Wave. From the Novell side, all security is managed and maintained by Novell.”- Rob Koplowitz, Forrester Research

our users. Having two main campuses 30 miles apart, our users aren't always in the
same location and have become dependent on the Novell Messenger (formerly
