Collaboration software with office 365?

My company looking for a business team management service that is able to work with our business to create a seamless collaboration system from one primary location that integrates Office 365. We want something that incorporates task and project management that will make collaborating with our team members as smooth as possible without having to open multiple different applications.

In more detail, we are looking for something for a small business that:

  • Has great functionality
  • Integrates with everything Office 365 has to offer and brings it together in one space
  • Allows for team collaboration across various locations
  • Organizes tasks, calendars, projects, people, etc. without having to use multiple different services
    • Separate these items based on the team working on it
  • Is easy to navigate/learn how to use the service
  • Has a notification system to alert users
  • Has a chat and feed feature where people can communicate ideas, as well as:
    • Generate polls
    • Share links, documents, videos
    • Tag people, groups, and topics
  • Has the ability to track projects
  • Can search through content
  • Can be customized to meet our needs

We are using SharePoint, but it has its quirks and is not an ideal software for our users. The key is that most features need to be accessible from one central location.

Does anyone have any insight?

Hi mrenee,

Try Actionspace app for Office 365 and SharePoint - Store.office.com/actionspace-for-office-365-and-sharepoint-WA104379354.aspx?   It is designed to manage teamwork and organize collaboration, and it is natively integrated with SharePoint and Office 365, so it might be useful for you.

Hope it helps.
