Pistachio Consulting Releases Full Updates To Their Microsharing Tools
Pistachio Consulting published one of the first comprehensive surveys of the enterprise microsharing tools market in fall 2008 and I covered it here (see Pistachio Consulting's Enterprise Microsharing Tools Comparison). This report is still available for free on their site. That report was based, in part, on a 15-question survey that they invited the tool providers to complete about their products. They verified the information and, in many cases, conducted follow-up interviews.
Much has happen since it first appeared and so Pistachio is developing an update now. For example, many of the enterprise collaboration application providers have integrated microsharing into their feature sets. In addition, many new features have been introduced to better adapt microsharing to the enterprise environment and to take advantage of the possibilities within the contained, secure, and trusted community that an enterprise offers. I am pleased to be involved with this new effort. We have expanded the questions to take these changes into consideration.
The new survey contains 31 questions to reflect the advances in current offerings. Pitaschio Consulting now invites interested enterprise microsharing vendors to participate in this new research effort. There is a brief explanation of each question. We look forward to sharing the results. The survey is now open and will be open for participation until Friday April 23, 2010. We will be again verifying the input and contacting many of the participating vendors for follow-up conversations.
I am helping conduct the research and write the report. Gina Minks, their intern, will offer additional enterprise perspective and assist in the process. Laura Fitton will provide her unique perspective on the microsharing space, and Marcia Conner will work closely on the report writing.
We look forward to producing something valuable for the enterprise 2.0 community. First, we need to input of enterprise microsharing tool providers. This includes those who provide a standalone microsharing application and those that include this capability in their application suite. Here is the link to the survey again.
