Administration and Deployment Features

BenefitDescription
ScalabilityWindows SharePoint Services scales from a single-computer deployment to server farm deployment with multiple front-end and back-end computers. New computers are easily added to a server farm and removed for upgrades.
Per-site backup and restoreEach SharePoint site can be individually backed up and restored for end-user support. This ability reduces the cost of restoring an entire database for a small subset of data.
Administrative object model and command-line utilitiesWith the .NET Framework-based object model and command-line access to administration functions, system administrators can create custom scripts to automate their most common functions.
Site quotasTo prevent disk space from running low, sites can be limited to a preset size. Automatic alerts can be sent to notify owners when a site approaches its quota.
Blocked file extensionsSite collection administrators can block users from uploading specified file types when adding attachments or files to document libraries.

 

 

 

Group Collaboration Features

BenefitDescription
Microsoft Office System integrationDeep integration with Microsoft Office System programs allows teams to collaborate using the familiar tools they use every day.
Document collaborationDocument workspace sites created using Microsoft Office Word take advantage of platform features by providing a document collaboration space.
Check-in and check-outDocuments can be reserved by individual users for updating purposes.
Document versionsDocument changes are tracked and assigned different version numbers for auditing and rollback.
Browser-based customizationChanges can be made in a Web browser by dragging Web Parts onto personal or public pages, and then customizing them. Themes can also be applied using a browser.
Presence integrationUsers can determine the online status of site members quickly by sending e-mail or an instant message, adding the member to a contact list, and viewing current free/busy status.
AlertsA user or site manager can add an alert to a list or list item so that they receive an e-mail notification when changes are made.
