Social network diagnostics

Trampoline Systems has introduced SONAR Flightdeck, what is claimed to be the world’s first organizational intelligence and diagnostics tool for managers. It brings network analysis techniques to business managers to expose the social networks and information flows contained within everyday electronic communications.

The company says SONAR Flightdeck automatically displays the crucial social factors at play within organizations including key opinion formers, poorly integrated business units, emerging communities of interest, single points of failure and third-party relationships. Trampoline says this information is vital to large, distributed organizations needing to improve cohesiveness, collaboration and innovation; mergers and acquisitions teams performing high-risk, low-data integrations; and change management professionals designing, implementing and monitoring change programs.

Flightdeck is the newest addition to SONAR suite, Trampoline’s enterprise social computing platform for employees and managers. SONAR Dashboard provides social computing for employees to locate experts, connect and collaborate. SONAR Flightdeck and Dashboard are powered by SONAR Server, which identifies the social networks, information flows and topics within electronic information such as e-mail, documents and instant messaging.
