Are you working an a project with multiple users? If yes, then you already know this: Communication is the most important part when you project has to get to an successfull end. Different project parts are done by different people. To ensure that every part fits into each other, you have to talk to each other. Otherwise you'll get a bunch of parts which work perfectly on their own, but not within the bigger scope: the project.
So how can you prevent such a situation? It's easy: do a lot of communication with all project members. This can be done with a recurring scheduled meeting every week, or with spontaneous meetings, every time you think it's time to discuss.
A meeting is set easily when all project members are located close to each other. It gets more difficult when team members are located in different cities or even different countries. But in today's modern world, this is not such a big problem as you may think.
Well then you should rely on today's collaboration possiblities over the internet. In times when broadband connections are booming it's no problem to work and collaborate together, even when thousands of miles are between you and other project participants. All you need is a team collaboration software, which builds the base for your communication.
When you're taking a look on all the different software suites, keep in mind that all project members have to work with the software. It doesn't bring you forward, when you're the only one who knows how to handle the new software, because you're a professional or familiar with modern technology. A good software should offer an intuitive graphical user interface and provide the functions you need. Don't take software which offers so many functions, that no one know how to use them, before studying a huge documentation - no one will do this! Focus on the main functions you want - and remember, that everything must be easy understandable. When all project members accept your new software, your project management will be a charm - with better and faster results.
