| IIDj develops support tools for information sharing, collaboration and production. An extensive collection of components allows for rapid development, tailored to a project's specific requirements. These tools are good at repetitious, organizational, and managerial tasks - they not only provide significant economic benefits but also assure consistent and smooth communication for teams with members from different professional backgrounds - often also working on distance. Planners, Editors, Translators, Designers, and Producers can focus on essential issues, entrusting most of the practical execution work to an always-on, always-available system. | |
