As workforces disperse, network-based team collaboration technology has become an essential tool for brainstorming, planning, client engagement and other essential business tasks.

Organizations searching for the best collaboration platform have a wide range of services to choose from. As 2020 gets down to business, here's a rundown of today's top collaboration tools offering the capabilities users most appreciate.
