The TeamSite To Do list displays the status of each task
along with the task name, date, owner, and a task
description. |
|
In
V/5, the status of a task can easily be obtained by checking the
Production Center Task View or Project Manager Task View. Statuses
include: Assigned, scheduled, working, and completed. An icon with a
red exclamation mark indicates that the task is past due. |
|
In
engenda, the status of a task is easily obtained by selecting the
task and clicking on the "details" tab. engenda ships with sample
workflow processes; and it can be configured to support any number
or combination of processes. |
|
The site window can display some information about each
page. A page can be marked as done or not done and comments can be
added to describe the status of the page. Publish or Don't Publish
flags can also be added. The workgroup palette and the admin
interface both display who currently has components checked
out. |
|
Spectra's workflow model provides a means for recording the
status of various tasks assigned to users. At any given point,
managers can view the status of any given number of workflow
tasks. |

TeamSite has very robust workflow features. Jobs are
described as a series of tasks and each task can be assigned to an
individual or process. Users can be notified of tasks by email or by
checking their To Do lists. WorkflowBuilder provides a very easy to
use GUI that allows users to design complex workflows visually. It
supports drag and drop of tasks, transitions, and task conditions.
Sample workflow templates for more common jobs are included with the
product. |
|
V/5 Content Management Server provides very good workflow
functionality. Workflow within V/5 includes a series of tasks to be
completed before content is published, and can include manual tasks
to be carried out by groups and users, as well as automated tasks,
to be carried out by external scripts or programs. Users are
notified of new tasks by a Task View or email. Workflow can be
managed and used either through the tools built in to V/5 or through
a web based Content Management Application (CMA). A web based CMA
allows users to create a fully customized interface to their content
entry and management environment. The V/5 CMS does not include a
graphical workflow diagram tool. |
|
engenda has very robust workflow functionality. Workflow
processes can be defined for each task. Every process has states,
transitions between states, and actions to be taken during the
process. Processes also define actions available for web content
that is associated with a task and also routed with the task. Users
are notified of new tasks in their workspace or by email. Workflow
reporting tools are included. engenda does not include a graphical
workflow diagram tool. |
|
None. |
|
Users can be assigned specific tasks and deadlines. Spectra
can also send emails to users notifying them of tasks that need to
be accomplished. |
