The value is in the operated platform
The product value is not only software selection, but architecture, integration and responsibility.
Architecture
Components, identity, data flows, backup and operational boundaries must fit together.
Integration
SSO, permissions, mail, projects and knowledge should work together in a way users understand.
Operations
Updates, monitoring, backup, support and lifecycle need clear operational ownership.
Produktansichten
Produktansichten may show real components: grommunio, XWiki, OpenProject, optionally a central entry page or SSO/login.
They must clearly label which application is shown. No artificial fake suite UI is created.
