GCcollab and GCconnex: What's the difference?
GCcollab
Gccollab is a collaboration platform for public servants and Canadians place to work with others, online, in real-time. If you're looking to use one of our tools, we recommend GCcollab. It's a tool that lets you easily:
- share information,
- host discussions,
- find your partners
- work in groups,
- build documents and projects together, and
- connect and work with others from across Canada and beyond, all in a secure environment
GCconnex
GCconnex is an older collaboration platform, and is only accessible to federal public servants. GCconnex is now in maintenance mode and is not being furthered developed.
Product Comparison
If you're looking to use one of our tools, we recommend registering for GCcollab. GCcollab allows you to work with people outside of government, and also gives you access to a suite of other tools using the same account and login information. One account gives you access to GCcollab, GCmessage, and GCwiki. However, GCconnex only gives you access to GCconnex and GCpedia, both of which are only available to Federal Public Servants, and are no longer being upgraded or updated. See the table below for more differences between GCcollab and GCconnex.
