Chris Marsh sets the vision for and manages 451 Research's Workforce Productivity and Collaboration practice. His own research focuses on workforce productivity software including the project, team, task, content and innovation management applications into which businesses are putting more of their data and workflows; general worker productivity suites like Microsoft's Office and Google's G Suite; technologies such as on-device workspaces, containers, partitions and endpoint management tools giving access to and providing security around productivity software; and the middleware technologies and workflow engines influencing how application experiences are designed and consumed. Before 451 Research, Chris was a research manager in Nokia's Global Consumer Analytics and Insights division.
The collaborative workspace vendor wants to help businesses introduce more agility and efficacy into their business operations by having employees build their own business applications rather than forcing them to work within the confines of rigid and siloed applications.
The vendor has added several features to its intranet platform to offer its customers a more flexible and tailormade experience. It considers both platform managers and end users in its product development, with some updates focused on simplifying the administrative experience and others more focused on the day-to-day end-user experience.
The mass migration to remote work has left many businesses scrambling to find the right tools and practices to keep employees productive and engaged. MURAL is one vendor that has a keen understanding on how to do just that with its web-based digital collaboration workspace.
