A fair number of enterprise and business users already are making use of online-based collaboration tools, says Compass Intelligence. This table shows the percentage of respondents in a recent 351-respondent survey that say they now are using one or more online collaboration tools for business in February 2008.
Respondents were most likely to say that they were not currently using these capabilities, as one possibly would suspect. But most say they are interested in using them for business purposes, if their company offered it to them.
For the time being it seems professionals are using online collaboration tools without the explicit blessing of their IT staffs.
In other words, millions of professionals and other knowledge workers that want to connect, interact and transact using business-based social Web tools.
