Organic Design offers a range of services around setting up wikis for your organisation and helping you use and develop the wiki for document management, collaboration and organisation. This includes the initial set-up of your wiki, administration, development and training as required. Our focus is the adaptation of the software to support additional organisational requirements such as website content management, procedures documentation and record administration. In doing so, we aim to integrate a range of functions into a unified system that can be used to run organisations in a collaborative way.

Wiki

We can set up and configure a hosted wiki to your requirements. This will allow you to take advantage of all the features of the software that powers Wikipedia, so you can create an internal or public knowledge base around topics of importance to your organisation.

Further details

Wiki skins for website

Our wiki skinning service allows you to specify what you want your wiki to look like - you can specify any "normal website" design. Then you can continue to manage your documents using the familiar wiki interface and specify which ones are to be displayed on the public website part. Just like we do on Organic Design.

Wiki organisation

We have developed a technology to add a number of functions to MediaWiki, which allow the mass creation and organisation of records. These could be web enquiry forms, contact management, task tracking, invoicing or a range of other records as required by your organisation. All with the ability to track changes, discuss individual pages and mix casual notes with structured data.

Why use Organic Design Services?

Cost effective

We base all our services on free, open source software developed by a worldwide community of experts. This means you only pay for customisation and support of proven and reliable software. We do not charge license fees for software, or ongoing per-user fees for software. Generally there is a setup cost and an hourly rate charged for development and support. That's it!

Remain independent

We will make sure you always have a choice regarding how your organisation uses software to get work done. This means our work complies with standards and we will always make procedures available for you if you wish to administrate the software yourself. Further, our agreements do not include minimum terms or any other kind of lock-in to try and "encourage" our clients to stay. Instead, we focus on delivering quality services and maintaining good communications with our clients.
