Telligent Systems' blogging solution is an outgrowth of its Community Server software suite, which has a strong presence in the discussion forum space. Other community tools include a member point system, photo galleries, and a basic social networking function. Built on the .NET platform, Telligent integrates easily with Active Directory and other authentication systems. A major shortcoming of the solution is a lack of content management workflow tools. Companies should use Telligent if they want a community and blogging software solution that serves a trusted community where content management is not needed.
