Forcing a SharePoint Solution

January 28, 2014

Many companies initially adopted SharePoint as a collaborative way to share data, but as SharePoint stretches to include additional features, these same companies are looking to the platform to provide multiple solutions. And while the “one application fits all” approach might be tempting, it is also riddled with complications. Read more in the CMS Wire article, “A Square Peg in Round Holes: Using SharePoint for Multiple Solutions.”

The article says:

“A good business case isn’t enough to make for a solid and powerful SharePoint implementation. To realize the value, it will be important for your organization to embrace the changes required for success. I’d like to highlight some of the potential areas of concern I’ve seen in my work on SharePoint implementations with various organizations and show some ways to get past roadblocks or find detours to help you get to your final destination.”

Stephen E. Arnold is a longtime leader in search and has followed the SharePoint ups and downs for many years on his service, ArnoldIT.com. He finds that SharePoint does well when they keep the main thing (enterprise management) front and center. But when they veer from their main directive, things get a bit dicey.
