OpenGoo 1.4 final is out!
Feng Office presents OpenGoo version 1.4, the latest release of its Web Office Suite.
The features introduced in this version increase the suite’s flexibility to adapt to several business scenarios, allowing managers to include custom properties on every system’s objects, and customs reports related to their particular needs.
Version 1.4 also tackles a long-standing request from the user community: better help, through an integrated “contextual help” system. Help is now introduced in small, contextual text boxes (guidance widgets) that can be closed by the users after they learn the concepts it explains. Also, the side-bar help (victim of a chronic abandonment) has finally been dropped, giving more room to the work canvas.
You can download OpenGoo version 1.4 here. Keep reading to learn more about some of the new features OpenGoo introduces since version 1.3. (more…)

New home page, new services
OpenGoo home page has been modified for the first time in two years. Not only because it wasn’t pretty and had us quite tired, but because we have two important things to do: better communicate what OpenGoo is, and promote Feng Office services. This is not a definitive version, but we hope it is better and more informative than the previous one. We hope to receive a lot of feedback to keep on improving it.
What is OpenGoo
Until earlier today, the home page stated “OpenGoo is an Open Source Web Office. It is a complete solution for every organization to create, collaborate, share and publish all its internal and external documents.”. When the project started (early 2007) that was the goal we set up for it. Over time we realized that a Web Office is much more than document management. In fact, we believe that electronic documents as they exist today (meaning: doc, .odt, .pdf, and similar formats), will become much less used, as there are more practical ways to share and collaborate on information.
In every organization, as important (and sometimes more important) as documents, is the ability to collaborate with colleagues, vendors and clients; being able to manage projects; and communicate in quick and efficient ways.
