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.

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.
