SharePoint Extranet Collaboration Manager 2010

SharePoint Extranet Collaboration Manager for SharePoint Server 2010 and SharePoint Foundation 2010 (WSS 4) is a SharePoint add-in that provides the easy SharePoint extranet collaboration and simplified SharePoint extranet administration that SharePoint 2010 is missing in the out-of-the-box product.
Built on the solid foundation of SharePoint Extranet Collaboration Manager for 2007, the SharePoint Extranet Collaboration Manager for 2010 features enhanced functionality and powerful new capabilities – all accessed from within SharePoint 2010 itself.
The comprehensive SharePoint extranet toolkit includes the following features:
  • The flexibility to empower delegated users to perform routine administrative tasks like sending invitations, adding accounts, unlocking accounts, managing passwords, granting access, removing access, and more.  Bottlenecks and wait times are eliminated.
  • New extranet users can register for site access themselves or you can send them invitations – approval of registrations can be automated.  IT “busywork” is reduced.
  • New security features – administrators can define security policies to govern site access and activity – at the site collection level, at the site level, or based on email domain.  You can make your extranet as secure as you want.
  • Total SharePoint integration – extranet management from within SharePoint itself eliminates learning obstacles and facilitates enthusiastic adoption.
  • With the remote extranet installation service package, the SharePoint solution teams, SharePoint extranet experts can have the vendor extranet up and running quickly, securely, and affordably in just a few hours.  We can start collaborating with our business partners right away!
