The problem is most SMB want to play it safe (i.e., use Microsoft). There are some that will play with other technologies but then one of the "business types" gets nervous and asks to go with MS.
It is probably easier to get Atlassian and the like into larger organizations. Start with a small group, kick off a pilot, get noticed by other people who want to collaborate/use your information and then grow within the organization. We use Atlassian and that is what we are hoping to do.
