SharePoint has been a major player in the enterprise collaboration market over the last six years. From team sites to manage project documents, to intranets, portals, wikis, and blogs, there’s hardly an organization out there that isn’t using SharePoint in some capacity to enable collaboration between employees.

Microsoft’s recent acquisition of Yammer, a cloud-based social collaboration tool, introduces both great opportunity and great risk into the SharePoint equation, and organizations across all industries are wondering what their next move should be.

ASPE will discuss the Yammer acquisition and the risks and opportunities it presents to organizations, including:

• The relationship between the enterprise collaboration and social media domains, and how SharePoint does and doesn’t enable each
• The evolving coexistence between SharePoint (MOSS, 2010, SharePoint 15) and other enterprise software platforms
• The best way to determine what enterprise collaboration functionality your organization really needs
• What the available options are those who have SharePoint in place and those who don’t
