Microsoft SharePoint has long been a versatile platform for intranets, public websites, and group collaboration. The 2010 version of the breakthrough collaboration platform brings numerous and important improvements to users, administrators, and developers alike.
SharePoint 2010 enhances content management (via updated metadata tools), improves workflows, and provides better community interaction (via messaging enhancements that considerably simplify document management and other tasks). It provides the best online HTML editor we've seen, eases deployment and management while also increasing administrative control, and gives developers a long list of improvements. Add to this better integration with databases and with Microsoft Office (such as the ability to edit Office documents in the browser), and it's clear that SharePoint 2010 is setting a new bar for what employees and users -- and their IT organizations -- will expect from a collaboration platform.
