In "Evernote vs. Quip: A New Productivity King?" I introduced you to Quip, the collaborative workspace app invented by former Facebook and Google executives. Quip's creators wanted teams to be able to collaborate and share information without having to rely on email to exchange documents or use an old SharePoint site — and to do so without constantly exchanging multiple versions of a document with confusing redlines and comments. On top of all of that, enterprise customers would want the highest level of security. Essentially, if Evernote, Google Drive, Microsoft Office 365, Skype and Slack all had a baby, its name would be Quip.
