SharePoint 2010 Consulting & Services

Want to add more to SharePoint? There are many possibilities:

• Deliver SharePoint with your brand, look and feel
• Create a portal more quickly
• Integrate custom applications
• Add social networking
• Enhance content management
• Add more security
• Customize SharePoint features

By itself, hosted SharePoint 2010 is undeniably a powerful, mission-critical technology with high measurable value in terms of the cost-effective efficiencies it creates within an organization. Often, our customers use SharePoint as the foundation for building complex applications and portals because they prefer not to build from the ground up. By making use of the powerful features of SharePoint 2010, and extending them, you can deliver your projects for less time and money.

AISN Transforms SharePoint Into an Indispensible Solution

At AISN, our Microsoft-certified SharePoint experts and partners do more than deploy and host out-of-the-box SharePoint. We transform your SharePoint platform into an indispensible solution.

For SharePoint 2010 to become your ultimate business "solution," you may need something more than a deployment built around a SharePoint default layout. Looking for a social networking application for your corporate SharePoint? How about a custom application to extend SharePoint’s content management capabilities or one that fills a training gap? A SharePoint security tool? Perhaps you require some additional customization and configuration, a migration plan, thought-leadership on a SharePoint implementation strategy and/or governance plan, or help improving your overall knowledge management capabilities.

That’s where AISN can help.

Sure, it would be easy to build your platform on the default SharePoint layouts, tip our hat and invoice you monthly for hosting. But that’s not how we do business. While default SharePoint layouts may work for some businesses, one size certainly doesn’t fit all. We don’t expect our hosted SharePoint clients to make all their mission-critical operations work around a default layout. Because the hosted SharePoint platform offers such flexibility and versatility, why not take it as far as it can go to enhance your mission and maximize your SharePoint investment?

AISN fills the gap between SharePoint’s out-of-the-box functionality and our clients’ desired business outcomes by:

• bringing together industry-leading customization and migration expertise drawn from client engagements across every major industry;
• leveraging thousands of hours of SharePoint deployment experience and hundreds of SharePoint deployments; and
• presenting innovative, SharePoint-compatible products and a broad array of services that will enrich and extend our clients’ SharePoint experience.

We make an effort to understand your business and your requirements. And then we go the extra mile to get you what you need. It’s as simple as that.

Not only do we help you understand how to implement hosted SharePoint strategically (and then enable you to execute on a plan), but we also take the time to educate you about what complimentary technologies are out there in the SharePoint ecosystem and how you can use those products to meet business-critical needs (i.e., training gap, social networking gap, documentation gap, skills gap). If it’s not out there, our software development partners will help you build it.

In the end, we hope our clients will have less stress and more efficiency—on multiple levels.
