Here are some of the many benefits of using a hosted SharePoint solution:

• improved team productivity: Windows SharePoint Services help you to connect your people with the information and documents they actually need for their business to make informed decisions and to get the job done. Users can create workspace, coordinate work schedules, share documents, track tasks and receive important notifications and can plan their business days accordingly. Users on the move can take advantage of offline synchronisation capabilites.
  
  
• document management to ensure content integrety: with enhanced document management capabilities including the option to activate required document checkout before editing, the ability to view revisions to documents and restore to previous versions, and the control to set document- and item-level security, Windows SharePoint Services can help ensure the integrity of documents stored on team sites.
  
  
• greater control over business critical resources: SharePoint provides IT departments with advanced administrative controls for increasing the security of information resources as permissions can be set as deep down as the document or item level, and site managers, teams, and other work groups can initiate their own self-service workspaces and tasks within these preset parameters.
  
  
• robust storage capabilities: with SharePoint you can provide a more robust document storage environment with document storage, retrieval and version-control features that are built in to the team work spaces.
  
  
• a collaboration environment quickly and easily set-up with minimal training requirements for users: SharePoint enables IT departments to deploy a scalable collaborative environment with minimal administrative time and effort. Since SharePoint integrates with familiar productivity tools, including programs in the Microsoft Office system users can easily get up to speed and little training is required to introduce this collaboration platform in the day to day business operations.
