Assessing Web Collaboration Applications: 30 Boxes
30 Boxes is another socially-based collaboration application similar to CollectiveX.  Its usefulness comes mainly from its calendar interface - it is easy to use and intuitive for non-technical folks. 

The features are extremely basic, a calendar, task list and profile management for members of your team or group.  Where this application would be most useful is for managing social clubs or groups, or as a family organizer, but I wonder - why bother?  Yahoo Calendar handles much the same things, with additional features and the ability to synchronize with Outlook or other desktop calendar program.  If you want a free calendar-oriented collaboration tool, Yahoo Calendar makes more sense.

How it compares to:
  • Sharepoint - totally different league.  Any comparison is like comparing apples to donuts.
  • Groove - Groove has the file sharing and forums, which are valuable tools.
  • Basecamp - I personally wish Basecamp used more of a calendar format.  That said, Basecamp offers the file sharing and whiteboard that teams will find vital.
  • CollectiveX - I would choose CollectiveX over 30 Boxes.  CollectiveX's free file sharing is barely adequate, but better than nothing, and a forum or discussion board is important.
