Over the last few years, we’ve seen an explosion in the number of web apps available in the enterprise market, covering all sorts of tasks: project management, collaboration, to-do lists, accounting, CRM, social networking, file sharing and more. The list continues to grow, as more applications that used to exist on the desktop move onto the web. That can make it difficult for users to figure out which apps to adopt. With so many choices it can be hard to narrow down the field — especially because many of the web apps that are being launched currently tend to address just a single problem or task. For many businesses who do opt for using web apps, it means creating a “technology patchwork quilt”: a hodgepodge of applications to fulfill their varied requirements. Web app developers hoping to stand out in the Enterprise 2.0 space should look for ways to help solve this patchwork quilt problem, rather than exacerbating it.
