Dynamic knowledge management system

Linchpin provides a central place for knowledge within your organization, where it can be constantly expanded upon, optimized, commented on and shared. Information is stored in spaces that can contain any number of intranet pages and sub-pages. You can create spaces for teams, departments, projects or products, for example. Sharing knowledge is a great thing. But your organization also has information that shouldn’t be accessible to everyone. Linchpin solves this problem by allowing you to manage access rights separately for each space.
