What is "grovesite"

GroveSite is a privately held online collaboration software company headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona. The company offers secure online workspaces, sometimes called hosted wikis, to small and medium-sized businesses, and to larger enterprises who need to collaborate securely outside the IT firewall. Their flagship product, GroveSite 5.0, includes document management, web project management, wiki web pages, and other collaboration features. In January 2011, the company released an online relational database product that is also targeted at business users.

GroveSite signed its first two large customers, BearingPoint and Target, within a year of its 2003 launch. Most of its clients are in Consumer Packaged Goods, Professional Services, or Government and Non-Profit industries. Notable are OfficeMax, Restoration Hardware, Abt Associates, AARP, ACGME and California’s BTH Agency. The company and its features are compared to that of other online collaboration, project management and web database solutions, including those from Central Desktop, Basecamp, Trackvia, and Quickbase. Unlike those companies, GroveSite does some customization of features for particular clients. This makes their product less scalable, but more attractive to those customers. GroveSite is positioned as an end-user-oriented, customer focused, SharePoint alternative.
