About CW Evolve
CW Evolve is a powerful and customizable web platform which can be configured to offer different experiences for different audiences within your organization.
Using Evolve you can share information from your CW repository across your organization - but only the data you want to share.
Depending on your configuration and the roles you set for your users, people can either read the data, follow it to keep up to date, comment on it, or even edit it directly.
