SharePoint can help you in the following scenarios:

• You need to set a place where to share and manage information within your company. (Intranet)
• You need to share information with people from outside of your company. Let’s say a service provider or a customer.(Extranet)
• You need to publish a Web site to the internet (public Web site)

SharePoint technologies are the foundation for an extended set of characteristics that will provide life to your Intranet, Extranet or public Web site, for example you can:

• Build picture galleries and document libraries.
• Build calendars and task lists.
• Build surveys and discussion boards.
• Build custom data bases, called lists.

All that without the need of any software development knowledge or tools. That means that you could build an Intranet for example for:

• Managing invoices and customers.
• Managing projects.
• Managing Schedules and meetings.

SharePoint will help you because it is solid and based on WIndows Server technology. It uses great technologies that makes it secure and reliable.

SharePoint will help you because it saves tons of time for developers in case you need to create something special. You don’t need to invent the wheel again. I give you a sample: You need your Web site to be editable by different people and you need some persons to not be allowed to modify contents provided by others. For that you would need to set users and passwords. Ok SharePoint includes that and lets you set different permissions for different persons.

SharePoint Simple CMS, the product I offer to the market, enhances SharePoint making it editable in Firefox and Safari. It also helps Web designers to make SharePoint look beautiful and modern.
