Content Collaboration
Content collaboration software makes it easy for your users to securely create, access, share and manage business content.
The content collaboration platform (CCP) market covers a range of products and services that enable content productivity and collaboration. CCPs are aimed at individuals and teams, inside or outside an organization. Additionally, CCPs increasingly support lightweight content management and workflow use cases. Core user functionalities include:
- Mobile access to content repositories.
- File synchronization across devices and cloud repositories.
- File sharing with people and applications, inside or outside an organization.
- Team collaboration, with dedicated folders.
- A content repository. This can be cloud based collaboration software or on-premises program, native to the CCP platform or based on other file servers or repositories.
Common features of collaboration software include messaging, audio and video conferencing, task management, document management, calendars, and time tracking.
From employees and decision-makers to partners, vendors, regulators and customers, your users benefit from easy, secure access to valuable business content. Rather than keeping files locked up in silos, content collaboration software enables information to flow safely and freely within your organization and across your firewall to external contacts.
Securing those documents is the challenge. Unless your content collaboration software maintains the highest standards of performance, security, auditing and reliability, cross-enterprise document sharing may lead to inadvertent data leaks or malicious security breaches.
