CSC has announced the latest innovation in the evolution of its property/casualty insurance client community with the introduction of WikonnecT, an Internet-based collaboration network using the latest Web 2.0 technology. More than 3,000 members representing 200 companies have joined since the network was launched at the vendor's fall conference.
The CSC-hosted social network is a personalized 24x7 Internet site for product announcements, information exchange, and collaboration between CSC and members of its P&C client community. WikonnecT runs on a Sun Microsystems infrastructure and includes blogs, polls, and a feature to keep clients informed on new software products and developments. Users also may rate and provide feedback on CSC solutions, prioritize improvements, and interact directly with CSC developers to reduce the cycle time for enhancements or responses to requests.
"WikonnecT offers a mutually beneficial proposition that fosters real-time interactions and immediate benefits," says Ray August, president of CSC's property/casualty insurance division. "To further harness the power of community collaboration, we are dedicating time and resources to this foundation, which will grow in importance for even greater benefit in the insurance industry."
Members of CSC's P&C client community may access WikonnecT through a secure log-in at https://wikonnect.csc.com.
