Hardly anything has revolutionised cooperation in companies as much as modern collaboration tools. They save time and enable teamwork without the participants having to be in the same country. All that is needed is a working internet connection.

Creative ideas can be drafted together in mind-mapping tools, discussions can be held via instant messenger, video and audio conferencing services, and project progress can be monitored at any time via project management tools. Knowledge is organised in wikis and graphics, texts and design proposals are submitted for approval via collaborative reviewing services.

Those who consistently use and combine the entire wealth of modern collaboration tools can optimise work processes and save a lot of money.
