We tried a lot of tools and one approach that didn&#x27;t work for us was a large shared hierarchy of files and folders. We tried Google Docs for this, but it got messy quickly and had to be maintained manually. Additionally, it took a lot of time to find what you were looking for via search or exploring the tree. People had different ideas on how to structure everything.<p>We abandoned files and folders and are currently using our own real-time wiki (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nuclino.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nuclino.com</a>) to access a flat hierarchy of pages mainly via a title-based and full-text search. Internal links between pages provide a good way for us to navigate among related pages. For a more explorative approach we are experimenting with automatic tagging and visualizations.
