Kibi Connect is a comprehensive employee platform. The module system allows flexible integration of functions such as wiki, chat, files, and external links.

What are Modules in Kibi Connect?

Modules in Kibi Connect are modularly integrable functions or external tools that can either be embedded in the user interface or used as standalone links. Examples of such modules include:

    • Calendar

    • Files

    • Group management

  • External tools and links:
