Project 2013 and the new Project Online just released by Microsoft has great new features and benefits.
26th March, 2013 – Qumu, the leading business video platform provider, has revealed that Microsoft’s SharePoint platform is being extensively used for training and development of staff within the enterprise environment. The survey also showed that 88% of respondents saw training delivered through the platform as a top priority for SharePoint, with 40% of users wanting to use video to provide live video training and meetings.
MONTREAL, April 9, 2013 /CNW Telbec/ – André Poirier, President of Negotium Technologies, together with the shareholders of AlphaMosaïk, have confirmed a transaction between the two companies that will now empower their clients to have access to a complete range of technology solutions and allow them to transform their technology investments into strategic weapons. Negotium will now count nearly 200 employees in its offices in Montreal, Sacramento, New York, and Paris. The company will thus become Quebec’s leader in midmarket and large enterprise technology solutions.
Display Templates, used in Search Results, Content Search Web Part and other search driven Web Parts to establish the visualization of the displayed data, are a combination of an HTML file and a JavaScript file. In order to create your own Display Template, you only need to modify the HTML file and let SharePoint handle the .js conversion. You can add your own JavaScript logic by referring to your own separate .js file in the HTML file.
So the cat is out of the bag thanks to Jared Spataro, Senior Director of the Microsoft Office Division. If you’ve followed my thoughts on Yammer vs SharePoint in the past, you would know that I was very critical of the “current state” of SharePoint 2013 and Yammer and also my comparison post. We made a decision at AvePoint to stick with SharePoint 2013 for “social” rather than look at the integration with Yammer which I explain here. After reading the direction that Jared had spelt out, I’m still happy with our decision as we are on-premises with SharePoint much like a lot of Enterprise customers rather than Office 365 SharePoint Online. I will say that we are seeing a lot more questions around O365 since January with the release of 2013 wave on February 27th. It was great that they included some information around on-premises too at the same time rather than delaying answering.
In the past months I talked a lot about Document Management with SharePoint 2013. In my last session in Rosenheim there has been an interesting question. The scope of the standard Document ID provider that is shipped with SharePoint is ‘Site Collection’. In other word: to activate the Document ID you need to activate a Site Collection feature. What happens if you have two different Site Collections that use each the standard Document ID provider and you move a document (with a valid Document ID) from one Site Collection to the other?
What is Goverance?
Within organizations, there are a few words that can instill fear across both business and IT teams. Governance is one of those words. Let’s face it, governance is not easy to define. Part of the challenge is that governance means different things to different organizations. It can also be interpreted differently between business units within the same company.
Good collaboration is essential for any organisation to improve efficiency, drive innovation, save time and ultimately reduce costs. By mixing collaboration and technology, processes can be greatly simplified which will return huge cost savings.
Whether driven by a merger or acquisition, a new platform release or through growth, SharePoint migrations, consolidations and reorganization projects are a reality for many organizations. With the release of SharePoint 2013, Microsoft has made significant improvements in its Office 365 offering. Therefore, more and more enterprises are considering migrating from their legacy SharePoint environment, Windows files, Exchange public folders and Lotus Notes applications to SharePoint Online in Office 365, or a hybrid on-premises and cloud deployment.
