SharePoint Now Looks and Acts Like a Real Discussion Board
Company continues innovating to make SharePoint even better, this time enabling familiar internet-style Discussion Boards in SharePoint.
- (1888PressRelease) August 17, 2010 - July 22nd, 2010, Toronto ON, Canada - KWizCom, a leading provider of critical SharePoint components to over 3,000 organizations around the world, announced today that it is introducing a unique new component that makes SharePoint look and act like a real Discussion Board. The company has made the preview version of the software available for free trial at the company's website (http://kwizcom.com/ProductPage.asp?ProductId=1723)
"Organizations find challenges with SharePoint's discussions mechanism, the Forum List. Many are using solutions other than SharePoint for their Discussion Boards," explains Nimrod Geva, KWizCom's VP of Product Management, "This is because the Forum List in SharePoint doesn't look or act like the generally user-friendly discussion boards available on the Internet, for either the users or the managers and moderators. It is just another list, and users can reply to the items in a hierarchy of posts. We are seeing that even organizations with solid SharePoint platforms are spending time and money for development, integration and management overhead to enable Discussion Boards."
KWizCom focused on delivering a real Discussion Board look and feel to SharePoint. Users now search across posts by author and topic, and they can add graphic media elements such as video and images, as well as emoticons, to their threads. Simple and straightforward items, such as relative time stamps ("posted 1 hour and 30 minutes ago") are standard. Moderators and administrators now efficiently manage boards by group and subject, deliver key usage stats, and treat both abusive and particularly helpful posts appropriately.
With this innovative Discussion Board Feature, SharePoint becomes a rich Internet-forum experience for advanced enterprise-level discussion forums and in SharePoint-based internet web sites. Organizations can add the critical Discussion Board functions that end users, managers and moderators expect to their existing SharePoint platforms. Simply put, SharePoint now quickly and inexpensively becomes that familiar Discussion Board.
