Only other such subsystem that quickly comes to mind is Wikileaks.

I terms of collaboration systems or set ups, I find the new Skype for Business set up that Microsoft have got integrated with all their suites to be very good. But that could well be because I came late to the party and have only been oriented to the one.

I find that larger corporations tend to trust Google Drive more than DropBox (and do not know about Box unless IT dept told them) because of the brand name difference.

Outside of collaboration features, larger corporations use it as a means to bypass ridiculous file size restrictions in their corporate email inboxes. I was surprised when a supervisor at LIME first shared a Google Drive folder with me and placed sensitive info in it so that’ s one issue right there.

Regarding productivity due to online collaboration tools, it works out fine once there is a document owner – easy to do if the owner maintains edit rights and only gives others view & comment rights (even in Google Drive)
