Quoting IT: CMS Usability
Submitted by Bryan on December 7, 2008 - 5:43pm"The usability of a content management system is paramount. If authors and site owners can’t work out how to use the CMS, you’ve got nothing. The CMS can have all the functionality in the world, but usability trumps it all."

Quoting IT: SharePoint's Enterprise Role
Submitted by Bryan on October 1, 2008 - 5:21pm"Our prediction, though proved to be correct though in another sense, inasmuch as the push to sell SharePoint as a replacement to ECM systems has to a large degree stopped — a good thing for buyers, for in that direction lay serious disappointment.
The fact is that buyers typically do not replace systems, be they ECM or otherwise. The growth in the data mountain and the ever-changing demands to the business mean that IT adds to and attempts to enhance what is already there, rather than rip and replace."

Quoting IT: Social Networks at Work
Submitted by Bryan on March 30, 2008 - 9:31pm"It further does not take a great leap to see how business executives could greatly benefit from being able to measure and monitor their energy and materials use in real time and share that information via a closed social network within their own company."
