Office SharePoint Server 2007 helps organizations gain better control and insight over their content, streamline their business processes, and access and share information. In addition, Office SharePoint Server 2007 gives IT professionals the tools they need for server administration along with application extensibility and interoperability.

Office SharePoint Server 2007 provides a single, integrated location where employees can efficiently find organizational resources, access corporate knowledge, and leverage business insight to make better-informed decisions.

• Get more out of your information Make better-informed decisions through centralized access to information and improved abilities to locate relevant content; implement comprehensive control over the storage, security, distribution, reuse, and management of documents and other electronic content such as Web pages, PDF files, and e-mail messages; submit work from collaborative sites to portals by using tools that simplify content reuse and publishing; simplify management of multilingual content through document library templates designed to maintain a relationship between original and translated versions of documents; use slide libraries as an easy way to share and reuse Microsoft Office PowerPoint® 2007 slides.
• Streamline your business processes Accelerate internal and external shared business processes, share business information within and outside of your organization; make business process initiation, participation, tracking, and reporting easy and flexible by providing a simple, consistent user experience through familiar client applications; optimize the way people, content, and processes interact within and across organizations.
• Simplify the way people work together Simplify content reuse and information repurposing; take advantage of workflows to automate and gain more visibility into common business activities such as document review and approval, issue tracking, and signature collection; focus on strategic, value-added tasks instead of redundant activities; improve and extend team collaboration; enhance your relationships with customers, partners, and suppliers by making forms-based business processes easily accessible to them, even if they haven’t installed client software; have customized document management policies enable item-level access rights, retention periods, expiration actions, and document-auditing settings; see how policy integration with familiar client applications makes compliance transparent and easy for employees.
• Ease server administration, extensibility, and interoperability Use a single, integrated platform with a consistent administrative interface to manage intranet, extranet, and Internet applications; employ powerful programming APIs and XML Web services to extend the reach and functionality of your portal implementation.

Collaboration is one of the most vital and central requirements in the majority of enterprise portal implementations. The core collaborative functions in Office SharePoint Server 2007 are provided by the underlying technologies of Windows SharePoint Services 3.0. Enhancements in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 make it easier than ever to share documents, track tasks, use e-mail effectively, and share ideas and information. All of the features and services provided by Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 are available in Office SharePoint Server 2007 installations.

To realize the full potential of personalization, a user profile data store is required. This data store will contain user preference information, such as parameters for personalized Web Parts that are used in users’ personalization sites (“My Sites”). Additional information may also be stored, such as the users’ departments, divisions, memberships in Microsoft Exchange Server distribution lists and Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 sites, and other information.

In Office SharePoint Server 2007, a user’s personalized site (“My Site”) will contain a profile page. This page shows a user’s colleagues and memberships, in addition to what’s common between the user and a user visiting the My Site of another user. It also shows an aggregated view of the user’s documents, Web logs (blogs), and privacy-sensitive profile properties. Office SharePoint Server 2007 enables administrators to set privacy policies on user profile properties, colleagues, and memberships, and to restrict who can access personal information. Subject to these policies, users can limit the visibility of properties, colleagues, links, and memberships to Only Me, My Manager, My Workgroup, My Colleagues, or Everyone.
