  1. A Enterprise Content Management 1 9/18/2014 Melodie Beveridge

  2. Benefits of ECM for SSA 2 9/18/2014 MB

  3. Products We Evaluated • Alfresco • Carbide • CrownPeak • Groupee • Hot Banana • Joomla • Metadot • SharePoint • Sitecore 3 9/18/2014 MB

  4. We Compared • Security • Ease of use • Product compatibility • Single sign on using LDAP • Document lifecycle management • Required 3rd party plug-ins • Features • Scalability • Cost • Documentation 4 9/18/2014 MB

  5. Open Source Evaluation Factors • A thriving community • A handful of lead developers, a large body of contributors, and a substantial--or at least motivated--user group offering ideas. • Disruptive goals • Does something notably better than commercial code. Free isn't enough. • Documentation • What good's a project that can't be implemented by those outside its development? • Employed developers • The key developers need to work on it full time. • A clear license • Some are very business friendly, others clear as mud. • Commercial support • Companies need more than email support from volunteers. Is there a solid company employing people you can call? 5 9/18/2014 MB

  6. Issues We Found with Some Products • Limited security • Outdated • Not LDAP friendly • Difficult to use/lacking documentation • Glorified forums/blogs • Dependence on proprietary software • Poor quality support & customer interaction • Lacking flexibility • Limited customization • Cost prohibitive 6 9/18/2014 MB

  7. SharePoint vs. Alfresco 7 9/18/2014 MB

  8. SharePoint • License fees are cost prohibitive • Users must have MS Office 2007 to get full functionality • Hard to use for admin • Limited to English out-of-the-box • Can configure it to permanently delete an area and all its files after a set period of inactivity • Difficult to customize and maintain • No product roadmap for the future • Microsoft does not use MOSS 2007 8 9/18/2014 MB

  9. CMS Watch on SharePoint • The most value from enhanced Office integration will come to those enterprises concurrently upgrading to Office 2007. Customers on older versions of Office may find their usability mileage varies. • As with the previous version, ease of installation obscures difficulty in customization and ongoing maintenance; administrators can easily get in over their head. • Microsoft has not issued clear plans for subsequent releases. • Enterprise Portal Report, CMS Watch 9 9/18/2014 MB

  10. CMS Watch on SharePoint cont. • “Microsoft has tried to go ‘enterprise’ in the impressive breadth of MOSS capabilities, but not necessarily in their depth and scalability.” • Tony Byrne, CMS Watch founder • Microsoft’s all-important consulting channel will need substantial time to absorb and learn the tool. Experience with previous versions of SharePoint suggests that this learning process will be measured in years. • Enterprise Portal Report, CMS Watch 10 9/18/2014 MB

MOSS 2007 Licensing Costs • Servers Estimated Price • Office SharePoint Server 2007 $4424 • Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search Standard $8213 • Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search Enterprise $57,670 • Office Forms Server 2007 $4424 • Client Access Licenses Estimated Price • Office SharePoint Server 2007 Standard CAL $94 • Office SharePoint Server 2007 Enterprise CAL $75 • Office Forms Server 2007 CAL $54 • Office SharePoint Designer 2007 $187 • Internet Facing Sites Estimated Price • Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Internet sites $40,943 • Office Forms Server 2007 for Internet sites $22,118 • To be licensed for the Enterprise Edition functionality of Office SharePoint Server 2007, both the Standard and Enterprise client access licenses are required. • office.microsoft.com / technet2.microsoft.com 11 9/18/2014 MB

  12. MOSS 2007 Costs for SSA • 12 MS Office 2007 Enterprise licenses (needed for full functionality of MOSS2007) - $10,500 • Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search Enterprise - $57,670 • Office Forms Server 2007 - $4424 • Office SharePoint Server 2007 Standard CAL - $94 • Office SharePoint Server 2007 Enterprise CAL - $75 • Office Forms Server 2007 CAL - $54 • Office SharePoint Designer 2007 - $187 • Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Internet sites - $40,943 • Office Forms Server 2007 for Internet sites - $22,118 Total Cost - $136,075 12 9/18/2014 MB
