OffiSync's technology creates a bridge between Outlook, Office and SharePoint and enterprise social networking and collaboration software, like Jive Software's. That way, end users see features and capabilities from Jive Software or whichever suite their company uses within the Microsoft application interfaces.

When linked with Jive Software's suite, Microsoft users can tap features like joint document editing, microblogging, discussion forums, activity streams and employee profiles.

OffiSync also provides integration between Microsoft software and social networking sites like Twitter and LinkedIn.

Integrating their enterprise social networking suites with Microsoft's collaboration and communication applications has become a priority for vendors like Jive Software, which have realized that Outlook, SharePoint and Office remain entrenched in enterprises.
