SharePoint products and technologies have become a fast friend to many organizations for quick, intuitive, and flexible information collaboration since its second iteration in 2003. In SharePoint 2007 users will see it's biggest makeover while revisiting functions we haven't seen since 2001.

Many features clamored about, including security-trimmed interfaces, a unified look and feel, and better information recovery are just a few of the features in SharePoint 2007 that will make everyone sigh with relief. Other features such as approvals and content types have returned, while workflow, business data web parts and Excel services are introduced in a powerful and exciting way. Add to this a slew of new web parts, RSS feeds, blogs, wikis, publishing sites, document repositories, and a new world of powerful, intelligent and reusable functionality SharePoint 2007 will open up a greater world of possibilities for the well-planned and creative business professional.
