I've worked in several fortune 500 companies over the past 5 years. Yes, wikis are becoming more common, but MS Office is deeply engrained in nearly every corporation I ever worked for. It's easy when you deal with technology every day to say you don't see Excel spreadsheets and ignore your email, but for most people whose lives don't revolve around technology like you and me, this is all they know. I was just at a huge corporation and do you know how they handled their project management? With emails and Excel spreadsheets. They had just started doing Agile and even then, no plans to buy a software package like Atlassian, just keep on with the spreadsheets approach. The company I'm at now? I privately held multimillion dollar company. We're in the process of a 2 year ERP project. How did the company they hire do it? Excel spreadsheets and email. Sad but true. Considering companies like Atlassian have some amazing tools both companies really need and could really utilize, the sales job is an uphill battle.
