SharePoint 2010 Content Overview

SharePoint 2010 Content: Manage Content Lifecycle From Creation to Disposition

With Enterprise Content Management (ECM) from Microsoft, your people can participate in the content management lifecycle, helping to govern information and promote compliance. As part of the 2010 release, SharePoint Content expertly balances user experience with policy and process, ensuring that everyone participates and all content is managed.

Increase Productivity and Information Value

With SharePoint 2010, content management is simple and intuitive, allowing employees to focus on higher value tasks. In addition, SharePoint 2010 provides co-authoring, metadata driven navigation, search refiners, and a rich social overlay to help people turn information into action.

Drive Compliance and Reduce Risk

SharePoint 2010 provides a single platform for managing content across the enterprise. By consistently applying metadata, retention schedules, record declarations, and legal holds, SharePoint 2010 can help to ensure that information is managed in accordance with policy and regulation. This can reduce the risk of incorrectly deleting relevant information or retaining information beyond its useful life.

Consolidate Systems and Simplify Integration

Reducing the need to purchase multiple ECM solutions, SharePoint 2010 delivers the management of documents, records, Web content, rich media, and document output in an integrated, extensible platform. In addition, SharePoint 2010 is built on an open platform that supports interoperability standards like XML, SOAP, RSS, REST, WebDAV, and WSRP, which significantly reduces the cost of maintaining a heterogeneous environment.
