What is Sharepoint 3.0?

Make it easier for teams to collaborate!

Successful projects are often founded on good teamwork — and good teamwork relies on excellent communication. Windows SharePoint Services is a flexible technology that allows organizations and business units of all sizes to increase the efficiency of business processes and improve team productivity. Windows Sharepoint Services enables better communication and collaboration from a central location accessible anywhere in the world. It helps people and groups share information and stay connected across organizational and geographic boundaries and gives employees immediate access to the information they need.

Built on Windows Server 2003, Windows SharePoint Services also provides a foundation platform for building Web-based business applications that can flex and scale easily to meet the changing and growing needs of your business. Sharepoint sites provide a central storage and collaboration space from documents, information and ideas. For example, a Sharepoint site can help you:

• Coordinate projects, calendars, and schedules
• Discuss ideas and review documents or proposals
• Share information and keep in touch with other people

Sharepoint Services 3.0 gives IT departments a cost-effective way to implement and manage a high-performance collaboration environment. With a familiar, Web-based interface and with the ability to work smoothly with everyday tools including those available in the 2007 Microsoft Office system, Windows SharePoint is easy to use and can be deployed rapidly.
