Yesterday we held a very successful Web cast titled simply, "Cool Topics". As you can see from the attached graphic, we covered topics ranging from the mildly cool - aggregation of project data across sites into a variety of parent/child displays to the very cool and visually appealing - integration with MS Virtual Earth and all the other BI charts and graphs included in our product.
While these may not be the primary challenges facing organizations trying to get real business value from SharePoint, they are among the most interesting. It is also most interesting to me to note that I find our biggest challenge at CorasWorks to be showing people precisely how easy it is to do these things with our tools - not how complex. Most prospects are expecting reams of code and 100's of hours of consulting and that is quite simply not the case. It is important to remember that CorasWorks tools are a mass market product designed to deliver the greatest value to the greatest number of organizations. We meet the challenges that are not necessarily unique to any one business or industry. Instead, we allow companies to save the coding and the consulting for those things that are unique to their company or their industry. Our customers can focus on gaining competitive advantage over their rivals rather than re-inventing the SharePoint wheels that we have already delivered to 100's of other companies.
We will repeat this series throughout the summer and we are looking for new 'cool topics' to present. If you have any ideas, tweet me @pblegere or email @ plegere@corasworks.net
Have a great day!
