43. Social SharePoint Intranet Suite
Complete SharePoint 2013 Social Portal with full portal, search
and content management for as little as $2 per user, per month
44. More Pros
• Enhanced authorization and authentication
• Search improvements - most notable the ability to manage
search from within the site collection as opposed to central
admin
• Community sites for OOB social site deployment
• OneDrive Pro allows for cloud storage and synchronization
• Cross farm content publishing
• IDEAL: small company of 100-5000 needing a collaboration
based portal in a .NET environment
44
45. Cons
• Branding functionality is still cumbersome to utilize
• Site level retention policies - not a great advantage but
good to have
• Newsfeed is a good addition but has so many issues
and limitations
• BCS data is very complicated to get it working
• Apps infrastructure is very clunky and in some cases
unrealistic to implement
• Apps are very primitive and somewhat rudimentary -
only iframes, too isolated
45
46. More Cons
• Cannot be deployed to a small environment with its full
capabilities - need separate OWA server, separate
workflow server
• The new Access DB templates (apps) are useless at his
stage , you better off using light switch
• Cross-sites and site collections integration and list
linking is still no near where it should be
• CAUTION: Potential for unmanaged proliferation without
careful planning & governance; not a large enterprise
solution unto itself
46
47. Total Cost (TCO)
• Understanding SharePoint solutions cost
structure:
Software licensing only accounts for 7%
Hardware, consultancy & training, a further 33%
Customization & Staffing cost is 60%
SharePoint is typically implemented as a
platform, not as a product, dramatically
increasing customization costs and TCO
52. No longer a standalone product
• Stop thinking of SharePoint as a standalone product
• Think of SharePoint as just one part of Office
• Think Office 365
• Think Cloud
• No more bi-annual releases; new Office features will be
released monthly
52
55. Rolling out
• Document Conversations for OneDrive for Business and
SharePoint Online
• Touch Design Enhancements for SharePoint Online and
OneDrive for Business
• SharePoint Online storage usage model
55

• Office Online support in Yammer
• User Activity Reports
• Document deletion policies for OneDrive for Business and
SharePoint Online
• Increase Message Size limit to 50 MB
56
57. No more website
