Description:
Distributed teams — people from different locations, time zones, and companies working together to solve a business problem — are on the rise. This fundamental business demand has fueled an explosion in tools and suppliers all focused on helping these distributed teams get their jobs done faster and better, and that has caused chaos and complexity for Information & Knowledge Management professionals.
This teleconference presents a new market model for understanding which real-time collaboration tools are best in which situations and gives Information & Knowledge Management professionals a way to prioritize and streamline their real-time collaboration investments. We revisit stalwarts like IBM and Microsoft, discuss emerging suppliers like Google and Cisco, and introduce startups like DimDim and Veodia.
