Webinar: SharePoint Extranet

Do you want to leverage SharePoint for your member's portal, customers, vendors, partners, or board of directors? Would you like to empower the business to manage this themselves, with appropriate governance and security? Do your end-users need a rich experience, including easy login, password reset, and possibly even self-registration?

Microsoft SharePoint delivers a secure platform that allows a tailored approach towards achieving business goals with an Extranet. A SharePoint Extranet can support the following objectives:

  • Build an online community
  • Allow interaction between organization and customers, partners, vendors, and volunteers
  • Reduce supply chain inefficiencies
  • Offer customer self-service strategies
  • Share business resources with partners

During this Webinar you'll learn how to leverage SharePoint for your external users. Key points will be:

  • Out of the box SharePoint experience
  • Federation using ADFS, Windows Live, or Facebook integration
  • Identity management using the Envision IT Extranet User Manager
  • Extending the authentication experience using Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway or Unified Access Gateway
