Collaboration schemes and use cases

Cooperlink distinguishes the following 4 types of collaboration:

• With guest partners
• In a business association
• Internal and remote access (cloudification)
• Quick and intermittent data sharing (visitors)

Collaboration with guest partners

Cooperlink allow your company to simplify your collaboration and exchange of information with your partners. They are granted the Cooperlink GUEST (free) license which gives them access to the free web application in which they benefit from many features to ensure effective collaboration.

Would your guest partners like to benefit from the same advantages as you? 

• Your partners who also have Cooperlink can connect with you for free. This gives you end-to-end digital collaboration.
• As part of a specific project, your partners can also connect to the network. A dedicated license provides the necessary tools and support in this context.

Collaboration in business associations (joint ventures)

Your partners can integrate their own tools into the Cooperlink network. They might benefit from full ownership of their data.

(*) The site server is expensive and poses serious problems in terms of safety. Each partner must request access and the impact on IT services is important (secure access, VPN, ...). Data is stored on physical servers in relatively unprotected locations. Finally, a site server is generally similar to a file and directory management, which limits the possibilities in terms of collaboration and automation.

Internal collaboration and remote access (cloudification)

Accessing your project resources on your company's internal tools frequently requires connecting through a VPN. Cooperlink allows your employees to access project information directly anywhere, anytime and securely.

Quick & intermittent data sharing with visiting partners

Some partnerships do not require intensive collaboration. This is the case, for example, with calls for tenders, contracts and other documents that you distribute to your subcontractor or the documents that you transmit to future buyers. It is also necessary in some cases to be able to transmit a deliverable in the form of a large file and that requires some form of traceability.

Cooperlink offers the possibility to share data with visiting partners in one click. The latter are informed by email and they have access to an interactive web portal.
