Tag Cloud metadata fields are meant to make files easier to find, but only if the values in them stay consistent. Left open-ended, they tend to fill up with near-duplicates and typos ("Marketing," "marketing," "Mkt") that quietly undermine search and filtering. Pydio v5.1 gives administrators a way to fix that: you can now define and restrict which values are available in Tag Cloud fields, so users pick from a controlled list instead of typing free text.

“Who the *** changed the plan?!” Pretty realistic for a typical morning on a construction site, isn’t it? A crew shows up ready to work and finds out the plan changed somewhere up in the office, but the information didn’t make it to the field in time. Almost every superintendent, foreman, or project manager has said it, heard it, or dealt with the fallout.

Individual AI adoption has outpaced our ability to redesign how teams actually work together. The numbers back it up. In Forrester’s “The Visual Era of Collaborative Intelligence”, 89% of leaders say improving collaboration is key to hitting their organization’s goals – yet 75% agree most AI tools are built for individual, not team productivity, and 39% say that individual-first bias is actively hurting their AI ROI.

The honest answer is that you cannot know whether someone is working by watching them, and remote work did not create that problem. It removed the illusion that solved it. In an office, presence stood in for productivity. Take the office away and the substitute disappears, leaving a question that was always there. Two things follow. The signals most monitoring tools sell are weak proxies that a determined employee defeats in minutes.

This article covers the following points. A support agent logs in at 9 a.m. with valid credentials, clears multi-factor authentication and opens a client’s billing system. An hour later the session is still active, and every system check still reads “authorized.” The person now sitting at the keyboard, however, is someone else. That is the gap most access controls were never designed to close. Authentication verifies a login.

Timesheets missing hours again? This checklist shows what to test in employee timesheet software before you buy: from capture and approvals to reporting and compliance.

Every guide to project planning describes the same sequence: define objectives, identify stakeholders, build a work breakdown structure, estimate, schedule, add a risk register. That sequence is correct and it is not where projects go wrong. Projects go wrong in the conversion between effort and time. A team agrees a piece of work is 30 days of effort, someone writes “six weeks” in the plan, and the project lands late without anyone doing anything wrong.

The defining productivity story of 2026 is not that AI arrived. It is that AI arrived almost everywhere and the results have not shown up on the balance sheet. Adoption is close to universal. Behavioural data from ActivTrak covering 443 million work hours across 1,111 companies puts AI adoption at 80%. Yet a National Bureau of Economic Research survey of roughly 6,000 executives found that between 89% and 95% of firms saw no measurable impact on productivity or employment over the preceding three years.

Your desktop is no longer the only place to log time – you can now do it straight from your phone with the new Scoro Time mobile app. We’ve also grown ELI’s capabilities – put ELI to work reading files, filtering list views for you, and running automations for you when certain trigger conditions are met. And that’s not it – there’s a lot more below!

Open source collaboration software gives organizations more control over how teams communicate, share files, manage projects, and work together. However, the category covers a wide range of tools, and the right choice depends on what your teams need to accomplish and how much control your organization needs over its data and security. In this guide, we’ll explain the main types of open source collaboration software, the features to look for, and the best tools for different collaboration needs.
