SharePoint Research
It’s been a long time since I’ve posted, and the reason is SharePoint.
We have decided to roll out a customized version of Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 as our intranet and document library. Much of my time recently has been concentrated on research, which leads me to a book recommendation: Microsoft SharePoint 2007 Unleashed by Michael Noel and Colin Spence. It does a great job of detailing what SharePoint can do and offers some sound recommendations of how to do it.
The one big surprise: there is no real mention of the difference between Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (the full, paid version) and WSS 3.0 (the free, limited version). For that, I had to turn to the web, where I found the following two comparisons that I found very helpful:
- http://www.sharepointprovider.com/moss-hosting/compare-wss-moss.asp
- http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-10878_11-6150512.html?tag=rbxccnbtr1
Our initial needs analysis showed us that we will only need WSS 3.0, but the links above were terribly helpful in getting us to that decision.
