These forums can be accessed by anyone with access to the web, or you can restrict participation to private dialogues, or both, for virtually as many groups as you desire. You do not need your own website to use these powerful discussion environments. With access to the Web, you can facilitate the forum and invite others to participate. Subscribers to your forum need only Web access and your permission to participate. You may establish multiple forums for different discussion groups with different security arrangements, ranging from open access to user permission required with password authentication. Each WebBoard and Allaire Forums store threaded discussions showing the various topics being discussed and indicating the relationship of responses. This allows participants to join discussions at any point along the way and easily get up to speed on what has been said. We suggest that you visit the Mediators' Forum on mediate.com to get a sense of a Allaire Forum environment and the CADRE Conference to get a sense of the WebBoard discussion environment. Each of these discussion environments will be customized to suit you or your organization. There is a one-time $250 Forum Setup Fee to establish forum capacity with either Allaire Forums or WebBoard.
