We provide a range of services relating to Microsoft SharePoint Products and
Services. Microsoft describes the two key technologies as follows:
Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services
Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services gives people access to information they need. It is designed to increase the efficiency of business
process and improve team productivity, featuring collaboration tools to allow people to remain connected across organizational
and geographic boundaries.
Offered as part of the Microsoft Windows Server operating system, Windows SharePoint Services provides a platform for building scalable Web-based business applications. This is a cost-effective
way to deliver a high-performance collaboration environment. With close integration with Microsoft Office, Windows SharePoint Services
is easy to use and can be deployed rapidly.
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS 2007) is part of the 2007 Microsoft Office system designed to facilitate collaboration,
provide content management features, implement business processes, and supply access to information that is essential to
organizational goals and processes.
With MOSS 2007, web sites can be quickly created that support specific content publishing, content management, records management,
or business intelligence needs. Users of SharePoint sites can also conduct effective searches for people, documents, and data, participate in
forms-driven business processes, and access and analyze large amounts of business data.
Our SharePoint consultancy service is divided into three areas - Consultancy, Development and Integration:
