Comment on Bootcamp, an open-source enterprise social networkparent

So, none of the features that mindcrime mentioned upthread?

To be fair, our definition isn't necessarily the definition either. And there are degrees of "enterpriseyness*. We, at Fogbeam, try to distinguish products by really emphasizing the integration aspect. But a tool without all those features could absolutely still be a useful tool, depending on the situation.

We're angling towards really large organizations with our offering - the kinds of companies that are using BPM / Workflow engines, a SOA architecture, LDAP/AD, etc. But many firms, especially smaller ones, might not want or need those integrations.

#1 and #3 came to mind for me immediately, even before I read your comment. Although SSO integration is displacing LDAP/AD.

And smaller firms generally view 'Enterprise' solutions as bloated consulting-ware, so if that's their market, they need to work on their messaging.
