What is Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007

As Microsoft’s fastest adopted product in its history, MOSS 2007 is the latest version of Microsoft’s offering to the Collaboration and Document Management Solutions market.  This product allows your company, whether by Intranet, Extranet or Mobile, to communicate and share documents in a common and standard format enterprise-wide, regardless of your employees’ location.  With additional Microsoft extensions, such as Enterprise Search and Windows Workflow Foundations, MOSS 2007 is powerful enough to fulfil your collaborative necessities.

MOSS as an Intranet Solution

A business’ largest investment is its people.  By empowering your employees with tools that allow them to exchange ideas and information, quickly and securely, they will realise their greatest potential and productivity.  Extending the MOSS standard features, such as Document Repositories, Shared Calendars, Announcements and Task Lists, creating a customized Enterprise Solution which best suites the way your company works is now within your grasps. 

MOSS for Extranet and Mobile Solutions

In our quickly globalising world, travelling and being out of the office is now common for many employees.  Deploying MOSS as an external connection to your internal data, or your Extranet, offers a secure connection for remote users to their company data anytime, anywhere.  The same information available to an internal user, can now be securely accessed from any Internet connection.  Better yet, with standard functionality built-in for Mobile users, whether by Microsoft CE-enabled Smartphone or Blackberry, the office is always at your fingertips.

MOSS for Document Management

For many businesses, government compliance on information has now become standard; keeping accurate records of your documents is becoming an essential aspect of a company’s day-to-day workings.  With MOSS integration into Microsoft Office products, such as Word and Excel, employees can save documents into MOSS just as easily as saving a document to their desktop.  Thus, with the ability to version documents, configure Metadata, and extend Windows Workflow Foundations, controlling the life-cycle of your company’s documents has never been easier! 

Securely Storing Private Information in MOSS

Allowing access to information to the correct people and keeping others out is critical to a company’s inner-workings.  With this in mind, MOSS security was designed from the ground up and works with your current network security to verify users’ rights before information is presented to them.  MOSS security filters each website as the user navigates.  This ensures that documents, lists and all other secured content are only displayed and accessed by permitted users: keeping your company’s private information safe.

Keeping Collaborative Information Safe

Receiving thousands, if not millions, of e-mails every year, how much business-critical collaborative information remains entrenched in forgotten correspondence when stored in your e-mail Inbox?  With extendable MOSS template workspaces, like Document and Meetings, valuable information from collaboration can be completed in a contained environment.  All information is displayed in chronological order making any review and assessment easier than sifting through your archived e-mails.

No Document or Information Left Behind  

How many times have you gone to find specific information on an issue, only to realise that you don’t know where it is?  You waste valuable time and effort by attempting to recreate the document.  What if this document was safely stored in a secured location easily accessed through a search engine?  With the ability to extend documents and lists with Metadata, finding this document is as easy as any Internet search.  MOSS 2007 has one of the worlds most powerful search technologies embedded into it, which not only allows searches on names and titles, but on the content as well.  With technology like this, never again will hours be wasted re-constructing lost content.

So Many Features to Explore

While MOSS 2007 fulfils your Document Management or Collaborative needs, it is also a building block for more complex and business-specific solutions.  By extending existing functionality in a new way, or developing a completely custom deployment, MOSS 2007 has the capacity to tackle any business’ challenge.
