Enterprise Content Management (ECM) from Microsoft is a key component of an organization's infrastructure, that can help companies overcome these challenges. Built on a well-integrated platform, ECM from Microsoft easily extends content management to every information worker in an organization through integration with familiar tools like the Microsoft Office system.
This webinar will show you how SharePoint can:
  • Manage diverse content
  • Satisfy compliance and legal requirements
  • Efficiently manage multiple Web sites
  • Streamline business processes
With Capabilities including:
  • Document management
  • Records management
  • Web content management
  • Forms solutions

The Webcast will be held on Tuesday, November 25th from 1-2PM (Eastern US Time)

Event Information:
Business intelligence (BI) delivers on a simple promise: to improve business performance by driving better decision making throughout your organization. When you're confident that your insight into corporate data is sound, informed, and complete, you can trust that all your decisions will help you create competitive advantage and achieve corporate objectives.

But for BI to reach its potential, it must have the flexibility and functionality to extend from the individual through the team to the organization. BI must also be responsive to the different needs of people in your organization and take into account all the information- structured and unstructured, you use to make decisions.

Microsoft BI delivers a full range of familiar, tightly integrated BI capabilities that enable individuals, teams, and organizations to better achieve performance management. Microsoft BI tools include:

·         Microsoft Excel is the world's No. 1 personal BI productivity tool.

·         SharePoint Server offers team and organizational collaboration capabilities.

·         PerformancePoint Server provides performance management capabilities for the entire organization.

·         SQL Server is the foundation for Microsoft BI, providing the infrastructure to bring everything together through its integration, reporting, and analysis capabilities.

Microsoft BI was designed to drive productivity and business performance, in one solution, for the way you already work.

At this Event, I invite you to see how Microsoft/Gig Werks Business Intelligence solutions can have immediate impact on your productivity as well as your company’s bottom line by showing you how to effectively access, analyze, forecast, report on, and share the information you need to achieve corporate objectives and how this type of solution can deliver the type of value that drive high ROI for your organizations future and provide the competitive edge an organization needs to get ahead.
