Webinar: Extranets in SharePoint 2010 and 2013

View Presentation

As more organizations recognize that an Extranet is a vital part of their web strategy, business partners are finding ways to dramatically improve on Extranet performance, functionality and user experience.

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

In this webinar, Envision IT will demonstrate the latest technology enhancements and customizations for Extranet Portals that ensure organizations achieve their goals. Discover how our clients are using SharePoint to transform their businesses, lower costs and maximize growth potential in a variety of scenarios:

• As an Internet website members-only area developed for non-profit organizations (www.bgccan.com)
• As a series of health care portals (www.problemgambling.ca)
• As a platform for retail websites to enable tenants to post promotions and job offerings (www.torontoeatoncentre.com)
• As a Volunteer Information Portal for charitable events (Heart and Stroke Foundation)

As part of the session, we will discuss the various ways to extend SharePoint outside your organization. We will compare and contrast the following technical solutions, and outline where each is appropriate:

• Envision IT Extranet User Manager
• Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway
• Microsoft Forefront Unified Access Gateway
