AGILEPOINT TURBO-CHARGES SHAREPOINT

Is SharePoint playing a larger role in your organization than you ever imagined.  It’s great that SharePoint is allowing so much collaboration, self-service organization, and improved productivity.  However, you know that you could do much more if you could integrate SharePoint more seamlessly with your other systems and platforms, if you could create a little structure around the occasional ad hoc messes, and if you could make certain SharePoint-housed assets visible to external partners or the public without exposing SharePoint through the firewall.  AgilePoint makes all of your SharePoint dreams come true.
AgilePoint has prebuilt components that allow you to quickly and easily add SharePoint interaction to your automated business processes.  AgilePoint components allow you to easily work with:

• SharePoint Sites and Site Collections
• SharePoint Document Libraries
• SharePoint Form Libraries
• SharePoint Lists
• SharePoint Content Types

Bring content into and out of SharePoint with unprecedented fluidity and ease.  With AgilePoint your models are built in Microsoft Visio, a simple and intuitive environment that is probably already widely used in your organization.  AgilePoint allows process tasks can be managed with any combination of InfoPath forms, ASP.NET forms, or forms automatically created from SharePoint Lists.  Why is this ability to mix and match forms within a single process so important?  Here are some helpful details:
 

1. InfoPath forms: Can be maintained by any user familiar with Office tools.  Is easy and fast to develop.  The InfoPath Forms Engine is part of SharePoint Server.
2. ASP.NET forms: AgilePoint allows ASP.NET forms to be schema bound just like InfoPath forms, providing a very rapid development option.  However, with ASP.NET using this approach is not required.  ASP.NET provides an exceptional level of flexibility and control.  And forms can be hosted on secure public web servers, allowing select internal SharePoint assets to be exposed to external partners or customers.
3. SharePoint List forms: A simple and quick alternative, these forms are automatically created from SharePoint lists.  This form option is ideally suited for internal forms that will only be used by a few users, and where there are not requirements for sophisticated look and feel or functionality.
 

On top of this remarkable flexibility, AgilePoint adds an unparalleled level of SharePoint integration.  AgilePoint provides Web Parts that allow integration directly into any SharePoint portal.  With AgilePoint Web Parts you can:

1. Start a new process directly from SharePoint.
2. See the tasks that you need to perform, the status of each task.
3. See the model of the process and exactly where your task fits in (this feature can be turned off, if you prefer).

AgilePoint is the key to reaching new levels of productivity, person-to-person collaboration, and system-to-system interaction with SharePoint.  AgilePoint is the only solution on the market that combines a best-in-class open and flexible architecture and support for dynamic and ad hoc processes with fully integrated SharePoint support.  We look forward to helping you unlock SharePoint’s potential for your organization!
