Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

In 2005 and the first half of 2006, Forrester received nearly 400 client inquiries on collaboration on topics like collaboration strategy, messaging platforms, team collaboration, collaborative document management, Web conferencing, instant messaging, and blogs and wikis. Forrester expects the interest in collaboration to remain steady or rise in 2007. End users will continue to experiment with collaboration tools, and IT organizations will try to regain control by implementing enterprise collaboration strategies. At the same time, leading collaboration software vendors are unifying their collaboration platforms and evolving them into Information Workplace platforms, which address not only collaboration but also content, portal, office productivity, and other technologies.
