PeoplePoint is a new and innovative add-on for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (SharePoint), allowing users to access colleague’s details more easily and efficiently. One click on the PeoplePoint icon, situated in the task bar’s notification area, and you have access to search the entire SharePoint user profile directory.

The simplicity of PeoplePoint is certain to save time for users and increase productivity and collaboration.

As we all strive for the paperless office, PeoplePoint removes the need for printed telephone lists, as it provides e-mail addresses, telephone numbers and job titles at the click of a button. Search results are displayed instantly on the desktop and the user is presented with key contact details for all matches, including picture thumbnails.

Organisations invest a lot of time and money into building collaborative portals and PeoplePoint will help to promote collaboration by providing links directly to users’ online profile with a ‘My Site’ area.

PeoplePoint allows you to use common search fields, such as name, surname, skills, responsibilities and department. This is a valuable tool for organisations that have offices spread over a number of locations and it is a quick and efficient way of locating the right person to speak to.

PeoplePoint is available as a perpetual Farm license. The number of users that may use it within your organisation is unlimited, with no additional per-user fee.
