SharePoint Content Management Integration

The SkyDox file sharing and collaboration platform allows users to quickly and simply share and collaborate on files in a secure environment. The platform harnesses social business and cloud technology to deliver a feature-rich collaborative experience.

SkyDox has a unique approach to helping organizations leverage investments in Microsoft SharePoint, which according to some analysts represents 65% of all ECM deployments worldwide. SkyDox offers bi-directional integration between SharePoint 2007 or 2010 document libraries as well as SharePoint web-parts. SkyDox extends the collaborative capabilities of SharePoint with instant file viewing, file sharing and IM-style commenting with distributed teams working inside or outside of the corporate firewall.

SkyDox drives team productivity both for SharePoint-authorized users as well as external collaborators by:

• Allowing users to view and exchange content specific comments on over 200 types of files without having to download the file or leave SharePoint
• Adding a range of social business tools to any SharePoint workspace, including presence indicators, activity streams, and IM-style commenting
• Providing file, folder, and user-level tracking and audit trails, including views and comments tracking
• Enabling users to share files with individuals
• Enabling users to share documents without removing them from SharePoint
• Allowing users to set permissions for viewing, downloading, commenting, and printing documents managed within SharePoint
• Delivering two-way integration that synchronizes current document and asset repository to a SkyDox online, negating the requirement to upload large amounts of data into the cloud 
• Providing the flexibility to build custom workflow required for document routing as part of a bespoke development client

SkyDox tools address challenges that can make SharePoint adoption more efficient and successful by:

• Improving document review and feedback procedures
• Expanding document collaboration teams to include authenticated external contributors
• Extending secure access to files stored within SharePoint to any mobile device
• Maintaining unified audit trials of all communications and changes to a file throughout its life-cycle
• Adding file-based conference calling and online meetings to any file SharePoint workspace
• Reducing the instances when less-secure, un-integrated file-sharing tools are used
• Eliminating the need to remove files from SharePoint in order to share or collaborate on them through email
• Reducing network overheads by bringing users to a single version of a file
