Novell Vibe

Novell Vibe is a web-based team collaboration platform developed by Novell. It was initially released by Novell in June 2008 under the name of Novell Teaming. Novell Vibe is a collaboration platform that can serve as a knowledge repository, document management system, project collaboration hub, process automation machine, corporate intranet or extranet. Users can upload, manage, comment on, and edit content securely.

Document management functionality allows for document versions, approvals, and document life cycle tracking. Users can download and modify pre-built custom web pages and workflows free of charge from the Vibe Resource Library.

As of 2022, Novell Vibe is now known as Micro Focus Vibe following the Novell acquisition.
