    At Mediacurrent we often get requests to compare Drupal to other platforms used for intranet sites and social business platforms (like https://dev.twitter.com/ for example). This is often referred to as “Social Business Software”, which has grown in popularity in recent years. I decided to do a round-up of a couple of the more well known platforms and compare their products to Drupal. In this roundup we will be comparing Jive, Sharepoint and Drupal Commons. Drupal Commons is a popular distribution created by Acquia to compete with some of these other proprietary platforms. There are many other options out there, commercial and otherwise, to compare with Drupal but I want to focus on Jive and Sharepoint for a couple of reasons. I chose Jive because it is one of the leading competitors in this space in respect to market share. Next, I chose Sharepoint because I have some history with Sharepoint. This experience dates back to when I built www.adhe.edu with Sharepoint 2007 a few years ago. I subsequently wrote this blog entry about my experience shortly after joining Mediacurrent. This roundup will also act as a refresher for those who read my original “Drupal vs. Sharepoint” blog.

    Overview
    Drupal is an open source content management platform powering millions of websites and applications

    HipChat is a service that provides companies with a chat and text-messaging platform that they can run internally. This keeps all correspondences private in general but public to the people who you choose to be a part of the conversation. Some of the more popular features of HipChat include a searchable history, which lets you browse through your chats to find relevant information, as well as image sharing capabilities (which is a simple, drag and drop process). HipChat supports a wide range of OS including Mac, Windows, Linux, Android, iOS,desktop, and more.

    HipChat can be used for one-on-one conversations or it can be opened up for group chats to include all team members. Chat rooms are flexible enough to allow the free flow of ideas and external data so that the entire team or even department can collaborate on the same project without missing a beat. At the same time, HipChat allows individuals to pick and choose whom they communicate with and one does not need to send all communications to all team members all the time, but can pick and choose who receives what and when.
