Report Excerpt

The Enterprise Portals Report looks at... Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 SPI

"This is important, because IT often considers MOSS (or at least WSS) as "free," and therefore freely deployable internally. The reality is that uncontrolled proliferation can create the kinds of costs and management headaches IT was hoping to avoid in the first place. "

(p. 148)

Our customers say
