collaboration tools

Group productivity software

Collaboration tools are software applications that enable groups to work together, typically across distances.

The category includes shared documents, project management platforms, messaging apps, video conferencing, and file-sharing services: We use collaboration tools to coordinate with remote team members.

The term gained currency as distributed work became common.
