Today I sat down with a group of people looking at the new products Microsoft launched in 2007. The event was all about Office 2007, Groove 2007, and Share Point 2007. These three products are awesome! The presenter Chris Ertz was great he is very good at presenting and staying on topic. As you know in a room full of techies we have questions that can take you off topic and make the event a real bore. Chris was great; the event flowed very well from start to finish. I was a bit late “Atlanta Traffic”.
Share point was awesome the features you get are awesome also at a great price FREE. Now you know that only applies to the simple Share Point if you go with Office Share Point and some other flavors there is a cost. Every company can gain great strides in implementing a Share Point site for projects, or departments.
Groove takes the collaboration event further down the road; it lets you really get collaboration going between your site or company and another company at anytime. Remember the capabilities are many and the management of these systems is all very well thought out.
We will be doing some Share Point and Groove testing in the coming months check back to this BLOG for details.
