13. “Microsoft SharePoint -- composed of Windows SharePoint Services "v3" and Office SharePoint Server 2007 -- is Microsoft's strategic collaboration and content platform. In an expanding role as Office’s server-side counterpart, SharePoint is Microsoft's focus for exploiting several market trends at the intersection of communication, collaboration, and content management. SharePoint has significant potential. . . “ “Microsoft is a Leader in the collaboration platforms market with a suite of products that are part of the Windows Server System and the Microsoft Office System. Microsoft's deep strengths lie in strong security, Information Workplace (IW) readiness, and product road map, but it also has a strong positioning in architecture, administration, executive vision, and strategy. Microsoft is setting the bar in the collaboration platform market..” Market Momentum "If collaboration and file sharing is on your mind, SharePoint Server and its integration with Office 2007 are impressive. . . . the ability to create dynamic sites – and for users to benefit from these tools and create their own My Site pages – is extraordinary.” Microsoft Embeds Sleeper in Business Software. To [enable collaboration], companies need to install a mix of software running behind the scenes that ties together PCs, databases, email systems and other programs businesses use. Many businesses, to their surprise, are finding that Microsoft anticipated that demand and has already sold them SharePoint before they even knew they needed it.” ”
