Requirements for collaborative software

< Collaborative software

Introduction

 * On this page you can find an overview of requirements for collaborative software.
 * Before you choose (a combination) of collaborative software, create a vision first. You want your organisation/ community not only a tool to facilitate collaboration, but you also want to provide them a CMS or wiki so they can share information. If you already have a (preferably global) CMS or wiki you can choose for example Workplace. But if you don't have a global CMS/ wiki you should consider buying a second solution.
