In addition to the good stuff — social media participation strategies, mobile productivity, etc. — these final weeks of our expert enterprise collaboration party addressed how enterprise 2.0 is failing to deliver, and why it might not be a good fit for your organization at all.
- The Importance of Context: Why Enterprise 2.0 Still Fails to Deliver Value. Enterprise 2.0 has been cited by analysts, vendors and consumers as one of the most important emerging trends in business technology in the last decade. Yet we still haven’t witnessed a glut of measurably successful Enterprise 2.0 deployments.
This is not a measurability problem — it stems primarily from the rampant misapplication of consumer technologies in the form of point applications.

- Enterprise Collaboration: Get Your ROI Right. If you’ve been following the evolution of the enterprise collaboration space over the last 12 — 18 months, you may have noticed two attitudes toward the ROI of collaboration technologies. The first views collaboration tools as an expense that needs to be justified in order for organizations to decide whether to adopt them or not. The second views collaboration tools as an expense that needs no justification, akin to email or shared drives — the question for organizations is not whether, but what, when and how.
- Developing Strategies for Enterprise Participation in Social Media. The rules of the game are changing, and they’re changing faster than ever before. You’ve seen the signs because they have been there for quite some time. Yet, if you’re like many organizations out there, you’re not sure how best to engage or even where to start.
- The Long Hill for Enterprise Collaboration. Enterprise Collaboration has been dear to the hearts and minds of the Content Management world for quite some time.
Every few years, there are waves of exciting new products that offer to enhance collaboration for the average worker, but adoption always seems slow. Why? For the answer to the question, let’s turn to the market leader — email.
