TIBCO Software’s enterprise social platform tibbr has been selected by global law firm Reed Smith LLP to enhance collaboration and productivity across all offices and practices.

tibbr was selected for its intuitive, simple design, and integration with SharePoint, to provide a secure forum for attorneys to conduct business and access critical information.

tibbr was developed to seamlessly and bi-directionally integrate with other enterprise applications. Reed Smith LLP wanted a social solution that worked well with SharePoint making it easy for lawyers and staff to access and take action on information to get work done faster, and better serve their clients.

"As a global law firm with a myriad of practices, we were searching for an enterprise social solution that could be securely deployed providing our attorneys with an intuitive interface for collaboration and information-sharing regardless of time zone or office," said Thomas Baldwin, chief knowledge officer, Reed Smith LLP.

"We anticipate that tibbr will deliver on this promise, connecting our global network of attorneys, creating a greater sense of community and increasing productivity."

Founded in 1877, Reed Smith LLP is one the twenty largest law firms in the world.

"Today's global workplace requires that people, data, information and systems are present in one easy-to-use social experience," said Ram Menon, president, social computing, TIBCO.

"Reed Smith LLP needed a serious collaboration tool that empowers individuals and teams to get work done. tibbr does this by bringing all sources of work that matters into one personal and contextual view."
