HCL Connections Ideas Portal

Welcome to the HCL Connections Product Ideas Lab! The place where you can submit product ideas and enhancement request. We encourage you to participate by voting on, commenting on, and creating new ideas. All new ideas will be evaluated by the HCL Product Management & Engineering teams, and the next steps will be communicated. While not all submitted ideas will be executed upon, community feedback will play a key role in influencing which ideas are and when they will be implemented.

For more information and upcoming events, please visit our HCL Connections page.

    Extend Tag limit / show all tags

    There is a limit of shown tags of 50 tags and 10 related tags to be shown at the sidebar, even though there would be enough space to show all tags in case there are more than 50. Please extend the limit to show all tags.
