This is our fifth week in a seven week series in which we are highlighting companies selected to present within each of the seven categories showcased at this April’s Under the Radar Conference. Stay tuned and look out for news on a new sector each week! Collaboration 2.0: Announcing our 5th group of startups. Collaboration tools of the past have not seen the mass adoption and seamless integration most expected. Barriers such as security threats, firewall blocks, clunky designs, and confusing interfaces are the source of most of these failures. For example, enterprise employees want to use collaboration tools like Skype, but issues surrounding security, loss of data, and the inability to monitor activity makes management resistant to allow widespread company integration. For collaboration tools to be widely adopted, they not only need to be “user friendly,” they need to be secure. We finally found five collaboration companies that have figured out how to combine great consumer design with enterprise level functionality.
