Workshare Launches Software for Seamless Document and Email Management between Microsoft Outlook and SharePoint

Workshare Point enhances access to SharePoint 2010 with highly integrated Office interface

San Francisco, CA, January 31, 2011 - Workshare, a leading provider of document collaboration software and a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, today releases Workshare Point, software which enables users to retrieve and file content to Microsoft SharePoint without leaving Microsoft Office applications. The Workshare Point solution provides a tight integration between the Office products and SharePoint, so users may access SharePoint quickly and easily from within the familiar Office and Outlook navigation interfaces.

Workshare Point leverages the new content management and collaboration capabilities of Microsoft SharePoint 2010 to deliver an intuitive solution for managing documents and emails. With this solution, organizations can reduce end-user training and increase adoption of SharePoint by providing easier access to SharePoint repositories.

The Workshare software helps transform SharePoint into a central document management system with its easy email management and project content filing. This solution allows users to access, file and manage their documents and emails with the Office tools they are accustomed to while storing their documents on SharePoint. Also, Workshare Point's customizable interface enables the solution to become industry or department specific. For example, a legal team may choose to label their document library "Matter Files" for a legal-ready solution.

"The integration between SharePoint and Workshare Point means business professionals now can be much more efficient; essentially staying in Microsoft Office and working the way they are accustomed to," said Scott Smull, CEO of Workshare. "As a Microsoft Gold ISV partner and an active member of the Microsoft TAP program we work closely with the Microsoft team to create the most effective and intuitive solutions for our customers."
