top 10 list that hilights the benefits to integrating
this tremendous product into your business today.
1.
Provide a simple, familiar, and consistent user
experience.
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 is tightly
integrated with familiar client desktop applications,
e-mail, and Web browsers to provide a consistent
user experience that simplifies how people interact
with content, processes, and business data. This
tight integration, coupled with robust out-of-the-box
functionality, helps you employ services themselves
and facilitates product adoption.
2.
Boost employee productivity by simplifying everyday
business activities.
Take advantage of out-of-the-box workflows for initiating,
tracking, and reporting common business activities
such as document review and approval, issue tracking,
and signature collection. You can complete these
activities without any coding. Tight integration
with familiar client applications, e-mail, and Web
browsers provide you with a simple, consistent experience.
Modifying and extending these out-of-the-box workflow
processes is made easy through tools like Microsoft
Office SharePoint Designer 2007 (the next release
of Microsoft Office FrontPage).
3.
Help meet regulatory requirements through comprehensive
control over content.
By specifying security settings, storage policies,
auditing policies, and expiration actions for business
records in accordance with compliance regulations,
you can help ensure your sensitive business information
can be controlled and managed effectively. And you
can reduce litigation risk for your organization.
Tight integration of Office SharePoint Server 2007
with familiar desktop applications means that policy
settings are rendered onto client applications in
the Microsoft Office system, making it simpler for
employees to be aware of and comply with regulatory
requirements.
4.
Effectively manage and repurpose content to gain
increased business value.
Business users and content authors can create and
submit content for approval and scheduled deployment
to intranet or Internet sites. Managing multilingual
content is simplified through new document library
templates that are specifically designed to maintain
a relationship between the original version and
different translations of a document.
5. Simplify
organization-wide access to both structured and
unstructured information across disparate systems.
Give your users access to business data found in
common line-of-business systems like SAP and Siebel
through Office SharePoint Server 2007. Users can
also create personalized views and interactions
with business systems through a browser by dragging
configurable back-end connections. Enterprise-wide
Managed Document Repositories help your organizations
store and organize business documents in one central
location.
6.
Connect people with information and expertise.
Enterprise Search in Office SharePoint Server 2007
incorporates business data along with information
about documents, people, and Web pages to produce
comprehensive, relevant results. Features like duplicate
collapsing, spelling correction, and alerts improve
the relevance of the results, so you can easily
find what you need.
7.
Accelerate shared business processes across organizational
boundaries.
Without coding any custom applications, you can
use smart, electronic forms?driven solutions to
collect critical business information from customers,
partners, and suppliers through a Web browser. Built-in
data validation rules help you gather accurate and
consistent data that can be directly integrated
into back-end systems to avoid redundancy and errors
that result from manual data re-entry.
8.
Share business data without divulging sensitive
information.
Give your employees access to real-time, interactive
Microsoft Office Excel spreadsheets from a Web browser
through Excel Services running on Office SharePoint
Server 2007. Use these spreadsheets to maintain
and efficiently share one central and up-to-date
version while helping to protect any proprietary
information embedded in the documents (such as financial
models).
9.
Enable people to make better-informed decisions
by presenting business-critical information in one
central location.
Office SharePoint Server 2007 makes it easy to create
live, interactive business intelligence (BI) portals
that assemble and display business-critical information
from disparate sources, using integrated BI capabilities
such as dashboards, Web Parts, scorecards, key performance
indicators (KPIs), and business data connectivity
technologies. Centralized Report Center sites give
users a single place for locating the latest reports,
spreadsheets, or KPIs.
10.
Provide a single, integrated platform to manage
intranet, extranet, and Internet applications across
the enterprise.
Office SharePoint Server 2007 is built on an open,
scalable architecture, with support for Web services
and interoperability standards including XML and
Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). The server
has rich, open application programming interfaces
(APIs) and event handlers for lists and documents.
These features provide integration with existing
systems and the flexibility to incorporate new non-Microsoft
IT investments.
