In most organizations today, SharePoint is nothing more than a glorified file share and while training is a critical component that can drive better adoption, it is not enough. To make the most of your SharePoint investment, it is critical that your users take advantage of SharePoint’s full capability to address their day-to-day business needs. The key to drive excitement, organizational buy-in and adoption is being able to provide relevant, business-contextual application that drives consistent, sustainable usage.

This webinar brings together the top experts in the field who routinely advise small to large organizations on how to be successful with their SharePoint based initiatives. This event is a combination of them sharing their thoughts and strategies and also taking audience questions around this extremely important subject area.

This was a hands-on webinar conducted in partnership with CloudShare. Attendees got a chance to build a no-code end-to-end expense reporting application in their own virtual environment provided by CloudShare.

SharePoint 2013 brings with it a bold new look compared to the earlier versions. Want to know what has changed exactly? Watch this webinar! The ‘Metro’ look of sites, the introduction of ‘Apps’, an easier way to manage your documents, the radical new way to style your site and more are all discussed in this session.

This webinar focuses on building project management processes directly on any flavor of SharePoint 2010 (Foundation, Server or even SharePoint Online within Office 365).
Nearly every organization already uses SharePoint at some level for simple things like document management, but many times all of the other things SharePoint does really well go unused. This webinar shows how to leverage features like discussion boards, task lists, shared calendars, roll-up web parts and more to manage most or all of your projects in one place! We discuss ways for providing self-serve status updates that automatically roll-up to the summary pages per each project (and even across all of your projects).

In today’s project-centric work environment, the ability to coordinate multiple projects with distributed teams, and making high-level strategic decisions based upon consolidated project progress, risk and resource usage information is critical. Microsoft Project Server 2010 is an enterprise-wide project management platform designed to meet these challenges.

This session provides real world use cases and guidance that covers when it is safe to let your site administrators use SharePoint Designer 2010 (and also when it’s not safe). In addition, we will discuss the different level of privileges that should be granted to different groups of people in your organization.

Office 365 is the way to provide messaging, collaboration, web conferencing, document sharing and more to your organization – large and small. Simply put, it’s SharePoint 2010 in the cloud. Office 365 went Live on June 28th, 2011. This webinar focused on providing information you need to be successful making decisions regarding Office 365 . The functionality and administrative capabilities of Office 365 were demonstrated.

Generally the best story for creating custom workflows in SharePoint 2010 is to stick with the declarative and most productive option: use SharePoint Designer 2010. However there are situations when SharePoint Designer cannot achieve some business requirements. One common example is when you need to implement some sort of a loop. In this session, you’ll see what’s involved in creating a custom activity (action) in Visual Studio 2010 and deploy it to SharePoint so it can be used in SharePoint Designer based workflows.
