Effective collaboration is a necessity for knowledge-driven organizations. Evaluating and selecting the right platform can be a daunting task with many emerging new features and shifting delivery options. Use this research to streamline the selection process and choose the best collaboration platform for your organization.
- There is a new emphasis in the market on social collaboration tools. The “Facebook Wall” analogy is quickly becoming a popular model for employee information consumption.
- SharePoint is the dominant solution, but other vendors offer viable solutions.
- Many vendors are now integrating with SharePoint 2010 – complementing rather than competing with it.
- Create a selection strategy that gathers business requirements and translates them into appropriate functional criteria.
Platform selection and implementation misfires are costly and time-consuming. Adhering to best practices around evaluating and selecting a collaboration solution will ensure that the full potential of the platform is realized.
Dear Clients,
Following the upcoming release of Salesforce.com's Winter 2012 version of its "Chatter" collaboration product, Info-Tech is officially recommending that Chatter be on your initial shortlist for an enterprise (social) collaboration platform. We will be formally evaluating Chatter when we refresh our Collaboration Platform Vendor Landscape Plus in 2012. Please see this update for more information about enhancements to Chatter in the Winter 2012 release.

Thank you. We will be touching more on strategy and use cases in an upcoming strategy solution set.
