Microsoft plans to enable some offline capability for SharePoint through the next version of Office, code-named Office 12. But Bolleman, who is under a nondisclosure agreement with Microsoft about specific Office 12 features, said that SharePoint offline functionality offered in the product will be limited. Colligo's product, however, will keep the organization and design points of SharePoint sites intact when providing offline functionality instead of serving up capabilities in pieces, he said.
"Colligo’s aim here is to emulate the functionality that a SharePoint site designer builds into the site and allow you to use that business logic and organization offline," Bolleman said.
Jinks, which has about 200 customers, said Colligo's software is used mainly by large accounting and consulting firms, such as PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, that have employees at various locations who need to access corporate documents in the field.
Colligo has not released pricing information for Colligo for SharePoint, Jinks said. Colligo Workgroup Edition currently sells for $99 per seat, while Colligo Workgroup for Lotus Notes sells for $149 a seat.
