Telligent Systems, more commonly referred to as Telligent, is an enterprise collaboration and community software company. Founded in 2004, Telligent's U.S. headquarters is located in Dallas, Texas and its international office is located in London, England.
The company changed its name to Zimbra, Inc. in September 2013.
Dell and MySpace both became Telligent customers in 2006. Dell started a blog on Telligent's platform in response to Jeff Jarvis' post about his dissatisfaction with a Dell laptop.
At the end of 2007 Telligent introduced a social analytics tool called Harvest Reporting Server.
In 2008, Intel Capital became Telligent's first capital partner.
In 2009, Patrick Brandt took over as CEO and Rob Howard became CTO. Patrick Brandt was previously CEO of Skywire Software, which was acquired by Oracle for an undisclosed amount. Telligent also re-branded its product offering as follows: Community Server became Telligent Community, Harvest Reporting Server became Telligent Analytics, and Community Server Evolution became Telligent Enterprise. Telligent also formally introduced the Telligent Evolution platform upon which Telligent Community and Telligent Enterprise were based.
As part of the company re-positioning, Telligent discontinued development and support for Graffiti CMS and made it available as an open source project. Telligent also discontinued BlogMailr, a free email-to-blog service.
In 2010 David Mitchell joined Telligent's board. David is currently CEO of Global 360 and was previously CEO of WebMethods. Telligent additionally added Wendy Gibson as Chief Marketing Officer.
On December 19, 2011, Telligent acquired Leverage Software.
On July 15, 2013, Telligent acquired Zimbra from Vmware.
Telligent's products are built on the Microsoft .NET and Microsoft SQL Server platform. They are primarily used as on-premises, white label software solutions.
