SharePoint consultancy
With nearly 20 years experience and a highly trained team of professional
developers and technicians, Core, located in the heart of the City of London
are ideally placed to provide enterprise-wide solutions for organisations of
all sizes. Our services cover full project management, from the initial
gathering of user requirements and application design right through to the
implementation and ongoing support of the systems that we create for you. We
have been developing bespoke products for our clients since the original
version of SharePoint services was introduced by Microsoft and so have an
intimate knowledge of the product and its capabilities, constantly updating our
techniques as new features have been introduced. We place great importance on
the continual training and certification of all our staff in order to maintain
the highest level of expertise across the board and thereby offer you the very
best service possible. As the base product has expanded, it now offers
functionality that can be utilised in all areas of your company, helping you to
take advantage of SharePoint solutions to organise and access information from
diverse sources within your organisation’s intranet. At the heart of our
company philosophy is a human-centred approach to computing which means that we
realise the importance of the staff that work with you on each project, as well
as the actual technology employed. In addition to our in-house development
capabilities, we are also able to troubleshoot problems that you may have with
existing systems that were built by other companies.
SharePoint development
As well as the ability to tailor services to suit individual clients’ needs
that the Server product offers, we have a talented team of developers who are
able to extend its capabilities and functionality in order to offer you a truly
customised end product that has been designed and built specifically for your
requirements. Compromise is not a word in our vocabulary. As with the many
other software application suites that have been produced by Microsoft over the
years, the tight integration of Microsoft SharePoint 2007 with other familiar
offerings from the company mean that lead time and development costs on bespoke
applications are reduced considerably compared to building an independent
system from the ground up. It also means that your staff will be able to
leverage their existing knowledge of products such as MS Office to make their
transition to the new system easier and faster than it would otherwise be.
Although each member of our team has a high level of technical knowledge in
their own area of expertise, any SharePoint designer that will be involved with
your project never loses sight of the end goal, which is to make the system as
simple to use and adopt as it possibly can be, whilst offering you all the
features you have specified. Performance on software that will be
simultaneously accessed by perhaps thousands of users, is a key aspect that
must of course be focused on during the development stages but usability is
always uppermost in our minds.
SharePoint Seminar
Working with the product day in and day out, we are of course well aware of the
possibilities that it offers to potential clients but we also understand that
not everybody is as familiar with it as we are. With this in mind, we offer a
series of free seminars held in London, which you may attend in order to learn
about the benefits that you could reap from employing a system based on this
software. During these seminars we have live customer demonstrations, showing
you how SharePoint workflow solutions can help your particular organisation to
streamline the various processes that you are engaged in and help different
departments to collaborate more easily. Many other aspects of the product are
explained and, being an interactive event, you will have the opportunity of
asking for an explanation of any part of the system that you do not fully
understand. The presentations are pitched at a level that will be useful both
to your own IT staff, as well as management attendees who wish to see how
SharePoint templates and other functionality offered can help their individual
departments, but may have less personal involvement in the actual running of
company IT systems. The main aim of each seminar is to make sure that everybody
goes away with a clear idea of how the product could enhance their company’s
efficiency and help them to get the most out of the information that they hold
by the use of features such as Enterprise Search
Dedicated support
Although we are confident that the systems we build are of the highest quality,
with any complex IT software such as Microsoft Office SharePoint 2007
solutions, there is a need for ongoing support after the initial implementation
and testing of the system. We offer a range of support options to all our
clients, with as little or as much involvement on our part as you desire.
During the adoption phase of your new system we place great emphasis on
knowledge transfer so that if you wish, your own internal IT staff may deal
with the day to day running and support after implementation has been
completed. SharePoint Office solutions may also be supported by our own team of
experts, who can either be based on your own premises or at the end of a
telephone line, to provide crisis management and help with any day to day
issues that you may have. If you would rather have nothing at all to do with
the running and maintenance of the system after installation then we can also
offer a service where all responsibility is outsourced to us, so that as your
MS SharePoint providers we take complete control of the administration of the
software and process all requests for upgrades and assistance that we receive
from you. This can leave you free to get on with your business, without having
to consider the workings of the system you are using. We also provide tailored
support to suit any organisation’s unique requirements.
Our Partners
In addition to the main focus of our company’s services, we are also able to
integrate various other advanced technologies into our solutions, being a
SharePoint consultant that has strong relations with a number of world class
software companies, as well as having achieved the highest level of
accreditation with Microsoft – Core is a Gold Certified partner, which means
that we have demonstrated outstanding capabilities in the development and
implementation of systems employing a wide variety of technologies from this
company. Our various other partnerships enable us to implement workflow
solutions that can span the globe and be used seamlessly by many different
devices. Data storage providers and security specialists who have also chosen
us as their SharePoint partners both reinforce our ability to offer complete
systems that cover all aspects of the enterprise, as well as allow us to supply
an unrivalled level of service in these areas. We have chosen to associate with
companies who we consider to be the best in their particular fields of
expertise and like to think that our partners in return, have done the same.
What it means to our clients is that, whether they are looking for a simple
SharePoint portal to help their departments communicate more effectively, or a
fully integrated, enterprise-wide system that covers all their business process
and document storage needs, they can be sure that if they choose to work with
us they will be receiving industry leading solutions that can grow with their
organisational demands over time.
A complete service
To summarise, as a company with many years experience in the development of
complex software solutions, we constantly strive to maintain the highest
standards of service that our clients have come to expect from the SharePoint
consultancy they have chosen to work with, and we believe that this is why we
have such a high client retention rate. We are ideally placed to offer a full
range of consulting services - whether you are looking for a company to
evaluate your current technical architecture and advise you on possible
improvements, or need a team to train your IT staff in the use of the
technologies that we specialise in, we are confident that you will be more than
satisfied with the results that we can provide. SharePoint development has
become increasingly popular as companies realise the cost savings and ease of
use that the systems based on this product can give them and, having worked
with the software since its inception, we do not believe that you will find
another company that can match our level of expertise or our commitment to
ensuring that you gain the most benefit possible when you decide to employ a
system based on this excellent platform. If you want to learn more about what
it can do for your organisation then please feel free to attend our next
SharePoint seminar or browse through the rest of our web site. We are also
happy to answer any questions you may have via email or telephone.
