Top 10 Benefits of
Windows SharePoint Services
1. Improve team productivity
Connect people with the information and resources they need. Users can create team workspaces, coordinate calendars,
organize documents, and receive important notifications and updates through communication features including
announcements and alerts, as well as the new templates for creating blogs and wikis. While mobile, users can take advantage
of convenient offline synchronization capabilities.
2. Easily manage documents and ensure integrity
With enhanced document management capabilities including the option to activate required document checkout before
editing, the ability to view revisions to documents and restore to previous versions, and the control to set document- and
item-level security, Windows SharePoint Services can help ensure the integrity of documents stored on team sites.
3. Get users up to speed quickly
User interface improvements in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 include enhanced views and menus that simplify
navigation within and among SharePoint sites. Integration with familiar productivity tools, including programs in the Microsoft
Office system, makes it easy for users to get up to speed quickly. For example, users can create workspaces, post and edit
documents, and view and update calendars on SharePoint sites, all while working within Microsoft Office system files and
programs.
4. Deploy solutions tailored to your business processes
While standard workspaces in Windows SharePoint Services are easy to implement, organizations seeking a more customized
deployment can get started quickly with application templates for addressing specific business processes or sets of tasks.
5. Build a collaboration environment quickly and easily
Easy to manage and easy to scale, Windows SharePoint Services enables IT departments to deploy a collaborative
environment with minimal administrative time and effort, from simple, single-server configurations to more robust enterprise
configurations. Because deployment settings can be flexibly changed, less pre-planning time is required and companies can
get started even faster.
6. Reduce the complexity of securing business information
Windows SharePoint Services provides IT with advanced administrative controls for increasing the security of information
resources, while decreasing cost and complexity associated with site provisioning, site management, and support. Take
advantage of better controls for site life-cycle management, site memberships and permissions, and storage limits.
7. Provide sophisticated controls for security
IT departments can now set permissions as deep down as the document or item level, and site managers, teams, and other
work groups can initiate self-service collaborative workspaces and tasks within these preset parameters. New features enable IT
to set top-down policies for better content recovery and users, groups, and team workspace site administration.
8. Take file sharing to a new level with robust storage
Windows SharePoint Services supplies workspaces with document storage and retrieval features, including check-in/check-out
functionality, version history, custom metadata, and customizable views. New features in Windows SharePoint Services
include enhanced recycle bin functionality for easier recovery of content and improved backup and restoration.
9. Easily scale your solution to meet business needs
Quickly and easily manage and configure Windows SharePoint Services using a Web browser or command-line utilities.
Manage server farms, servers, and sites using the Microsoft .NET Framework, which enables a variety of custom and third-party
administration solution offerings.
10. Cost-effective foundation for building Web-applications
Windows SharePoint Services exposes a common framework for document management and collaboration from which
flexible and scalable Web applications and Internet sites, specific to the needs of the organization, can be built. Integration
with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 expands these capabilities further to offer enterprise-wide functionality for
records management, search, workflows, portals, personalized sites, and more.
