The latest News and Information on Collaboration, tools and related technologies.
Given the widespread use of instant messaging and chat apps for communication in 2023, organizations are prioritizing control over data exchanges on these platforms. MarketsandMarkets reports that the on-premises collaboration market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 12.7% during the forecast period, with an expected market size of USD 85.8 billion by 2026. What drives this growth? It is the increasing adoption of cloud-based and on-premises collaboration solutions by organizations!
Lately, on-premise solutions are experiencing an upsurge. Although many companies choose cloud computing for its convenience and scalability, organizations prioritizing airtight security, complete control, and privacy prefer leveraging on-premise solutions. On-prem deployment has many unique benefits businesses can capitalize on, such as in-house storage of data and software, lower network bandwidth cost, easier compliance, and more.
As companies have adopted more remote and hybrid models, the ways we work continue to change. Research finds that up to one-third of meetings are unnecessary, which means companies are wasting millions of dollars as workers contend with ongoing screen fatigue and burnout. Like most things in life, humans need balance, and it’s becoming apparent that teams need to be more intentional about collaboration.
The onboarding process involves introducing new employees to the organization's culture, policies, values, and work processes. It provides new hires with the necessary information and tools to be productive and successful in their new role.
Messaging apps are essential for internal collaboration and critical notifications such as reminders, alerts, and other time-sensitive updates. While integrating with the Slack and Microsoft APIs is fairly straightforward, implementing these tools as a part of a full-featured notification system that embeds with your app experience can be far more daunting.
Change: make it fast, make it first, and make it fair.
