The AIIM Blog
Keep your finger on the pulse of Intelligent Information Management with industry news, trends, and best practices.
The core conclusions of a recent AIIM study on SharePoint are that a) the platform is somewhat ubiquitous in just about any organization at scale, and it likely isn't going away and b) organizations are increasingly restless and uncertain figuring out where to go with it. So there's plenty of insight and data for lovers and haters alike.

I recently did an open-mic webinar with Quentin Christensen and Andrew SanAgustin from Microsoft to answer questions from users about SharePoint. The Q&A flowed beyond the scope of the webinar, so I asked Quentin and Andrew if they could respond to some of the outstanding questions in this post. Here are the questions and their answers -- as usual, no endorsement implied -- and the perspective is theirs, not mine. The point of the post is simply to provide a conduit for the questions and give Quentin and Andrew a chance to give their take.

Enterprise Content Management (ECM) | Sharepoint and Office 365
I recently received a review copy of a great new resource by two AIIM "veterans," Shad White and Chris Riley, called Enterprise Content Management with Microsoft SharePoint. If you are involved in a SharePoint implementation at your organization -- or if you are an SI in the SharePoint space -- you need this book.

In many organizations, existing SharePoint deployments are broad but not very deep when it comes to integration with core business processes, especially those that are transactional and complex. While most of those organizations have goals or formal plans to make additional investments in this direction, the entrance of SharePoint 2013 and Office365 into the mix have interrupted some of these plans. Companies now find themselves having to make even more complex and future-looking plans about moving to the cloud. People want to know -- what should you do next if you already have a SharePoint 2003, 2007, or 2010 on-premises deployment? What are leading companies doing today? What are the mistakes to avoid? What issues should you be considering? How do you convince your manager to move forward?

Electronic Records Management (ERM) | Enterprise Content Management (ECM) | Sharepoint and Office 365
The AIIM Community offers a space for members of our community to share the information management best practices they've learned from experience on the job. These blog articles provide valuable insights. I was looking through the most popular blog posts for July and thought I would share my top ten here. The rules for qualifying: If you had more than one post in the top 10, I only took the top one. I only counted posts that were done in 2012. So congratulations to all of the following bloggers (and thanks for being involved in AIIM). And the envelope, please....
