When ClearPeople created Atlas we wanted our platform to do more than just help people with communication, knowledge and collaboration. We wanted to build a platform that promotes inclusivity.
We believe that everyone, regardless of their role, location or abilities should be equipped with the right tools and information so that they can be effective at work. Importantly, this should all be in one place.
These extremes are important to ClearPeople and they were at the forefront of our minds when we developed Atlas - the people-first digital workspace for Microsoft 365.
A company is not a company without its people. The digital workspace is all about those people. Bringing them together, bringing out the best in them and making your company shine in the process.
In most organisations, only a small set of people contribute and share knowledge and experience. Why? Because often only a few understand WHERE and HOW to contribute. More importantly, most don't have the permissions to do so. Atlas aims to be inclusive and easily accessible for both contributors and consumers of knowledge.
With Atlas, gone are the days of outdated content where only a few people could contribute to your intranet and knowledge areas. More users can add content across different areas without any technical knowledge. This is our contribution to digital meritocracy and our "Add It" feature does exactly that – it enables simple contribution for everyone with an intuitive step-by-step wizard.
This powerful tool is your launchpad to all of your collaboration groups and therefore gives you visibility of what groups you belong to and which ones you can join. This drives inclusiveness across all collaboration areas especially for those who don't collaborate on a daily basis within the digital workspace.
Saving the best for last, put simply Atlas Connect is an extremely powerful governance and provisioning tool. It lets a non-technical user create sites with the right permissions and structure within minutes and within Atlas. It’s a game-changer by removing barriers for business users to effectively and flexibly create collaboration and knowledge areas.
We have made accessibility one of the key features of our Atlas proposition, driven by our passion for inclusivity and experience with accessible digital solutions.
This experience dates back to ClearPeople's inception. When service providers needed to comply with the DDA in 2004, we worked with numerous law firms to make sure their websites were compliant. We were then delighted to work with not-for-profit organisations to ensure that their websites were AA or, in some cases, AAA compliant. We also catered for specific use cases when delivering websites for the National Autistic Society and Cystic Fibrosis Trust.
More recently we delivered an engaging and accessible digital workspace that has successfully enabled CBM’s workforce to better communicate and collaborate. CBM aims to bring transformative change to the lives and communities of persons with disabilities living in poverty. Therefore, the solution not only catered for those with disabilities but had to be easily accessible to a large workforce in countries with poor technology infrastructure. It is a digital workspace solution that aims to be inclusive across borders and abilities.
Atlas is a next generation digital workspace for communication, knowledge and collaboration beautifully brought together in one place.
Group Explorer allows users to easily find and access collaboration areas across Office 365 Groups, Yammer, Microsoft Teams, and more.
Atlas Connect is an advanced governance and provisioning tool for Teams, SharePoint and Office 365. It is one of the many features of Atlas Digital Workspace.
