The uTIPu Blog

Boca Raton, Fla. 8/19/2008 uTIPu Inc., the provider of a knowledge networking platform, powers the new Citrix Systems VideoTips community site (http://citrix.utipu.com) to enable its customers, employees and partners to create and share video help tips about Citrix products.

uTIPu Community is a Web 2.0 service that enables any organization to rapidly create a branded community website for communicating help tips about its applications, services and processes in video. Using uTIPu’s one-click TipCam™ screen recorder, anybody can record and publish help tips easily. With broad grassroots participation, the website quickly grows into a content-rich, searchable, and user-rated video library about an organization’s products and services.

Citrix has had its online community forums for quite some time. But for many help tips, words and still-screenshots are still limiting.  A video showing all steps of a help tip including mouse clicks and voice narration is worth more than a thousand words. “We find that screencasts are very effective in communicating application and configuration tips,” said Chris Fleck, vice president of Solutions Development at Citrix. “The challenge that we have had is to make such video creation and sharing easy enough for everyone in the Citrix Community to participate. The uTIPu solution provides a great enhancement to our new community site (community.citrix.com).”

“I am very impressed by the Citrix vision of engaging its customers and employees in an active, constructive conversation about its products and services using Web 2.0 technologies,” said John Yin, chief executive officer of uTIPu. “In order to include both non-technical and technical people in the same conversation, the communication needs to be visual and free of technical jargons. uTIPu makes ‘See What I’m Saying’ possible between these two groups of people.”

uTIPu Community is now available to any organization that wants its users to share knowledge about its products, services and processes.
