I see it every day with our customers. Our goal as an organization is to try to facilitate more communication. While there is the Staff/IT silo gap, I most often see it across departments. What really kills me is to go to a place and the marketing department is isolated from the rest of the company. You know, the data where they could be getting their success metrics from.
It happens in many other iterations as well. I think there are a lot of products to help out with this, but the number one thing is to foster an environment of communication, as you can have the world's best ERP or Database, but if the users don't use it than the silos will remain.
