SharePoint is an integrated suite of server applications that provides a single platform to manage information on intranet, extranet and website applications and like all Microsoft products SharePoint is easy to use, implement and maintain.
SharePoint allows users to create, manage and build their own collaborative websites and make them available throughout the organisation. They can develop shared workspaces for events, calendars and documents, receiving alerts when content is changed.
SharePoint integrates seamlessly with other Microsoft products and business applications so users can update shared documents from within their familiar environments/interfaces helping with user acceptance and long term adoption.
