SharePoint Features

Team Workspaces:
Your Team Workspace is a Web environment focusing on one or more tasks, projects, or documents, such as a product launch, a company rebranding effort, or a new customer. Team members work together on documents, and periodically update copies that have been saved to the Team Workspace site.

Administrators (and team members with "create sub-site" rights) can generate a Team Workspace site from any compatible Microsoft Office 2007 application (Word, Excel, or PowerPoint), or by using a Web browser to access a document list on the SharePoint site.

SharePoint uses document tracking/versioning, helping your team efficiently track and manage document creation and editing. Creating a Team Workspace site with shared attachments enables team members to email a review link to other team members who then have the ability to scroll back to previous versions or retrieve deleted data.

Meeting Workspaces:
A Meeting Workspace site is a productive approach to workgroup collaboration. Similar to a Team Workspace site, it enables team members to manage meetings and documents by using Web parts (page components), lists, and document libraries. Using Microsoft Outlook 2007, you can send meeting notices and invitations to team members. This automatically creates a Meeting Workspace, or you can create a Meeting Workspace in your SharePoint site via a Web browser.

You can also create a Meeting Workspace site for recurring meetings so team members can track the progress of ongoing tasks or projects. Your team members can create a site or workspace for collaboration on Web pages, lists, and document libraries, or they can create a site to manage a new team or project, collaborate on documents, or prepare for meetings.

Discussion Boards:
Discussion boards provide a forum for topics that interest your team. For example, you can create a discussion board that enables team members to propose and discuss ongoing activities. Each discussion board has icons for starting, sorting, filtering, switching views, or changing designs. Another feature (Web Discussion) enables users to attach comments to specific SharePoint pages or documents.

Surveys:
Surveys enable you to poll team members and obtain feedback from anyone with access to the site. Configure surveys so users respond to items such as meetings, vendor service, or product releases-and display results graphically.

Notifications & Alerts:
SharePoint uses email alerts to notify users of important events and changes to lists, items, libraries, and other parts of the site. For example, users can choose to receive email alerts when a document published in a specific library is modified or deleted, or they can elect to receive immediate, daily, or weekly alerts for content included in the portal site index.

Document Sharing:
Users can browse a document library to share documents with team members. Document libraries support features such as sub-folders, file versioning, and check-in/check-out. Using a compatible XML editor, create a form library for your XML-based business reports or purchase orders. Using the search engine, team members query most lists and all document libraries that are on the SharePoint site. They can search the entire site or a single list within the site, or they can search for a particular contact in the Contact list.

Announcement, Events, Task, & Contact Lists: 
  • Event Lists: Using an event list, post information about important dates or copy/link events to a compatible calendar program.
  • Announcement Lists: Use an announcement list to post news, status, and other information, and set expiration dates for the announcement.
  • Task Lists: Use a task list to assign a task to a team member, specify its priority/due date, and indicate its status and progress. Users view individual tasks assigned to them, as well as tasks assigned to other team members.
  • Contact Lists: Contact lists enable team members to have access to telephone numbers, email addresses, or street addresses of clients, partners and vendors. Copy contact information in the address book to or from a contact list. This requires a compatible address book program such as Outlook 2007 or Internet Explorer 7.0.
Picture Libraries:
Store photos and graphics in picture libraries, and enable users to view images as thumbnails, filmstrips, or standard files. A picture library enables you to create a repository of corporate and product logos and images to standardize corporate images, and simplify the daily operations of team members.

Administration Tools:
Windows SharePoint services assist site administrators in the following areas: 
  • Block specific files from document libraries to prevent suspicious files from being uploaded to the server
  • Link a document library with a public folder (based on Microsoft Exchange 2007) to store documents attached to email messages
  • Add users to a site and enable access to specific sub-sites
  • Specify permission to enable only specific users to change a list
  • Support regional settings such as language, time zone, currency type and international calendar formats
  • "Help" features available on every screen
We have worked with IDS for over 3 years now, getting almost all of their services including my website, their search engine ranking, local listings, mobile websites and now we have just started a Facebook campaign. I have always been very impressed with their results on their claims, their follow up and best of all, their open approach to direct communication. I rely on them to provide me what I need to be successful online and they never fail to meet this goal. They guaranteed two keywords on page one, but got 32 keywords on page one! I have often stopped by their office and I am always greeted with warm hospitality from the staff. They are always happy to walk me through what they have been doing. Andy and the team are friendly, highly experienced and get the work done. - S & G Cleaning Services
IDS has been there to support my business throughout the years. My business requires frequent updates and strong marketing as the day camp approaches and the whole team has worked with me to continue to grow my business. They have a strong knowledge and  great consulting skills to help continue to grow my website. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who needs help getting found online, they got over 1,000 of my keywords on page 1 over the various different search engines, which I really didn't think could be done! They went far beyond my expectations  -- Barry Wasserman, Eagle River Day Camp
Chocolate Lovers’ Club would like to thank you for all your help! You’re all very knowledgeable of what you do, and are always there to answer any questions we may have. The mobile site you made for us looks wonderful! We couldn’t have picked a better company to help us with everything we needed! -- Chocolate Lover's Club
Dora and her firm (IDS) designed the website for our statewide association (www.njava.org) and I must say that I was extremely impressed with how she and her team were able to take my simple idea and make it look so professional. They were efficient, timely, and most importantly easy to work with for someone that had very little web design experience and couldn't really tell them what I wanted. I would recommend Dora to anyone, big company or small non-profit, who is looking for a great firm to handle your web design needs.I will certainly be going back to her in the future -- Mike Ferguson
