We are living in a world of on-demand communication. Today's turbulent business world, require companies to continually update their skills and capacities. Companies are exploring ways to align and integrate technology-based learning into business processes and strategy. On-demand collaboration is a new trend that is driving higher levels of connectedness than ever before, and which is greatly affecting the way people collaborate and negotiate, since people want to work together anyone, anywhere, anytime. The collaboration market is so crowded, it becomes imperative to select a viable vendor that will survive the consolidation. © 2008 International Federation for Information Processing.
