New Sharepoint Hosting…to me at least!

June 11th, 2008 by Adam Maywald, Editor · 1 Comment

I was perusing the web, as I usually do everyday, and found this new sharepoint hosting service.  Turns out, they’re not so new and have been around for a while.

If you’re not familiar with Sharepoint, here’s a little excerpt from WIKI:

 SharePoint is a web-based collaboration and document management platform from Microsoft. It can be used to host web sites that access shared workspaces and documents, as well as specialized applications like wikis and blogs from a browser. SharePoint does not intend to replace an entire file server (e.g., an imposed 2 gigabyte file size limitation). SharePoint functionality is exposed as web parts, such as a task list or discussion pane. These web parts are composed into web pages, which are then hosted in the SharePoint portal. SharePoint sites are actually ASP.NET 2.0 applications, which are served using IIS and use a SQL Server database as data storage backend.

I’ve used Sharepoint for a couple of companies I’ve worked with before in the past and I really enjoy the flexibility.  Sometimes it can be cumbersome to setup, but if you have the right team to back you up on that end, the rest is pretty straight forward.
