Content Collaboration Platform

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Content Collaboration Platform (CCP) is a category of business software that extends work processes with comprehensive social networking functions. The goal of a collaboration software application is to drive innovation by integrating knowledge management into business processes so that employees can share information and solve business problems more efficiently.

description

The content collaboration platform market encompasses a range of products and services that enable content productivity and collaboration. Content collaboration platforms can change the way individuals and teams work. They support companies to work together digitally in the future in order to enable focused work. Inside or outside of companies, they add structure and understanding when it comes to unstructured data. In addition, content collaboration platforms increasingly support lightweight content management and workflow use cases. They offer teams the maximum possible traceability of texts and changes.

The previous Enterprise File Sync & Share market has gone through a process of commercialization and development of the vendors' value propositions due to intense competition. These trends have driven market consolidation and forced vendors to look beyond syncing and sharing files. They have evolved into content-driven collaboration for individuals and teams, secure external collaboration, lightweight content management, and file-centric workflows. Starting from an initial application focus, these products have evolved into content platforms with publicly available APIs for integration, customization and extension.

In addition to Enterprise File Sync & Share and Collaboration , aspects such as workflow, compliance (classic information governance, records management and security topics) and GDPR come into play. This goes beyond the Enterprise File Sync & Share as well as previous collaboration approaches. In addition, there is integration with office environments as well as with content services platforms.

Essential characteristics

The essential characteristics of a content collaboration platform is mobile access to data, this is guaranteed by file synchronization between devices and cloud repositories. Also, a file sharing with people and applications inside or outside of a company is one of the main components. Team collaboration is possible through configurable folders. Finally, it also includes a content repository. This can be cloud-based or on-site, natively on the content collaboration platform or based on other file servers or repositories.
