SharePoint Services For Better Workplace Efficiency, Call on AT&T to Implement, Host and Manage Microsoft® SharePoint®

Information is power…but only if you can find it and share it. Unfortunately, in many companies, employees strain to find the information they need, and work teams struggle to collaborate with the tools they have.

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 provides relief with enterprise tools for information management, collaboration and automation. AT&T Hosting & Application Services can implement, host and manage SharePoint cost-effectively, allowing you to:

• Create SharePoint sites for managing, sharing and publishing content

• Search for people, documents and data

• Expedite forms-driven business processes

• Access and analyze business data

AT&T: A Full-Service IT Resource Although Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 makes work easier for the organization as a whole, IT departments are left with the “heavy lifting” of installing, customizing and maintaining SharePoint every day. It’s a big job, even for those who have experience working with SharePoint. And few do.

To relieve your IT staff from having to cope with a brand new environment, AT&T works as an extension of your staff to:

• Migrate your system from other collaboration platforms

• Develop custom applications within SharePoint

• Install or upgrade SharePoint

• Host the software while providing continuous monitoring and maintenance

Choose any combination of services that meets your needs. You can ask us to get the software up and running to your specifications, to host and manage your software using our hardware and IT staff, or both.
