Key take away pointsTECHNOLOGY

Key take away pointsTECHNOLOGY
www.greensburg.pitt.edu
• SharePoint can be successful – and bring you success – on a tight budget
• Look around at how financial/resource benefits can be combined for larger impact
• Look internally for resources and support you did not know you had
• Use a dev site and get the right people involved to use it• Encourage organic adoption as much as possible
