Hinweis der Redaktion
Before I begin this presentation let me tell you a little bit about myself.
My name is Paras Dodhia and I am currently with KPMG Canada as a Team Lead, SharePoint Supportthis role involves managing the document management collaboration platform for the firm.
I have over a decade worth of experience with the Microsoft platform as a solution architect, developer, administrator, and trainer.
Aside from this I am the founder of Mindlab an IT consulting company which was discovered in 2001.
Mindlab has been involved with several high profile IT SharePoint/Office365 related projects. One of them being with the 2015 Toronto Pan Am Games and another name to mention is Tervita one of the leaders in the oil and gas services industry.
For more information please feel free to contact me through one of the channels listed in the slide.
Quick show of Hands
How many of you have used Sway before?
In this presentation, I will provide an Overview of Sway, where I will focus on What can you achieve? And how we can Get Started.
Next I will go over how to Create and Share in Sway.
this will be followed by a fun part, where I will do Technical Demo
At the end, we will have A Moment of Curiosity, for questions and answers….hopefully more answers than question
Sway is a tool to create web based content – it’s a tool in comparison to Word , Excel, and OneNote
Bring content from any where and make the presentation dynamic
Its multilingual – translate the Sway interface to any language
The content you populate will still need to be manually converted
As you type keywords images populate from various sources such as Wikipedia, Bing, Creative Common open source
Web based responsive presentations
OK time for QA- I hope more A’s then Q’s – *laugh*
The true genius of these tools is their ease of use and simple integration! I created an example form and connected it to flow in a matter of minutes.
See you at the SharePint
I look forward to hear from you. Please feel free to contact me via any of the social media channels listed.Thank you
