10 Collaboration Platforms to Consider for Your Business: “Collaboration is the cornerstone of getting work done in the enterprise. It may start with e-mail clients, but there are a number of platforms that enable file sharing, offer wiki-like work space and provide real-time collaboration through Web conferencing.
