zusammen is used for things connected to each other.
gemeinsam is used to express that you are doing an activity together with someone else.
ex: Wir sind zusammen.
We are together.
You can't use gemeinsam here.
ex: Wir haben eine gemeinsame Wohnung.
lit.: We have a shared appartment.
-> We share an appartment.
But sometimes there's is really no difference:
Lass uns zusammen zur Schule gehen.
Lass uns gemeinsam zur Schule gehen.
-> Let's go to school together.
The only real difference here is that gemeinsam sounds a little more professional-like because it isn't used that often.
