It sometimes can be hard for customers to understand the value of products that are added to SharePoint. Many times it is very difficult for customers to compare tools that appear similar but are yet different. The SharePoint “Shoot Out” at the 2011 European SharePoint Conference in Berlin aims to have three top Microsoft partners in each of two categories (Workflow and Administration) shoot it out in public to help customers see the unique value and the differences. Customers will also be able to interact and meet the “top guns” from these companies. These two moderated sessions promise to be very informative and lots of fun.

Partcipating companies include… AvePoint, Axceler & Quest

– Contents from the intranet (which is powered by Microsoft SharePoint) should be re-used on the internet with least possible effort,

More than 10-years of fruitful co-operation between the German subsidiary of Elopak and the Mannheim based JANUS die Werbemanufaktur agency made it quite a logical step, to turn to JANUS and ask them for advice.

Microsoft has released various recommendations about how large content data bases should be in SharePoint in order to still allow for optimal performance .
