Microsoft's SharePoint Server offers an integrated suite of capabilities that help improve organizational effectiveness by providing comprehensive features for better information management, collaboration, and insight. SharePoint supports all types of intranet, extranet, and Web applications across an enterprise within one integrated platform, instead of relying separate systems for each function. The Gartner Group recently placed SharePoint in the leaders quadrant in three of its Magic Quadrants including Search, Portals, and Enterprise Content Management.
Designed not only for the end-user, this collaboration and content management server provides IT professionals and developers with the platform and tools they need for server administration, application extensibility, and interoperability.
SharePoint provides business value in the following key areas:
- Collaboration and Social Computing - Enabling teams to publish, manage, and collaborate on documents via defined workflows and business processes. Users can maintain tasks lists for documents or work items and share information through the use of wikis and blogs.
- Enterprise Content Management - Empowering users to create and manage documents, records, and website content while adhering to workflow standards and security controls.
- Portals - Allowing individuals, teams, divisions, and corporations to create information portals that share key information with pertinent users.
- Business Process and Forms - Enabling custom business forms that are delivered through the web browser and are integrated with other applications and database systems.
- Enterprise Search - Providing a single source to search for all mission-critical content across the enterprise including data not housed within SharePoint.
- Business Intelligence - Delivering secure access to vital business data via analytical reports, graphs, and charts to enable timely and effective business decisions at all levels of the organization.
