From Awe to Awesome: 20 Ways to Improve SharePoint 2010

SharePoint 2010 is a great tool, and far improved over SharePoint 2007… but
here are a few items that could help take SharePoint to the next level.

1)      Global navigation across site collections with security trimming.

2)      Global Content Rollups, including out of the box Data Views.

3)      Metadata based security (Ex. A document tagged “top secret” can’t be
found based on its metadata unless a user has rights to view it [without using a
folder that houses all “top secret” documents]).

4)      Auto-grow capacity where SharePoint automatically creates Content
Databases once a limit is reached, or Content Databases at the Library and List
Level (No more creating 15 Document Centers when you have capacity constraints
and only need 6 Libraries!).

5)      No Limits on the Send To size of Document Sets and Documents.

Currently,  “when you use the Send to feature with a Document Set, the sum for all documents in a Document Set cannot be larger than 50MB” (Source: TechNet). This limitation has caused a burden for many organizations as they easily extend beyond 50 MB but still require the routing of Document Sets for scenarios such as sending to Records Centers, alternate sites for review/approval, and custom workflow requirements.

SharePoint Blogs: Get the Enterprise Posting!

Blogs within a SharePoint environment can serve multiple purposes and be targeted to various audiences. They can be informal, used in team sites for collaboration, or at the Enterprise level to disseminate information from leadership.

Blog posts can be quickly created in rich text or html and include tables, images, video, audio, links and documents. Building upon the SharePoint platform allows for a robust list structure with ease of use in creating and managing post, categories, comments and links. Further enhancements include discussion boards and surveys.

SharePoint Wikis Aren’t Wack

The Enterprise Wiki component of SharePoint 2010 grants users the ability to easily create a structure to share knowledge, manage projects, and collaborate across an Enterprise.

With the options to enter information as rich text or html, users can create content ranging from simple text to leveraging html to create more substantial wiki pages. Links can easily be inserted to tie together other SharePoint pages or reference external content. The process of linking within a wiki is core to creating structure. Documents, tables, images, video and audio may also be added to enhance wiki pages.
