I found this article by Joe Shepley at CMSWire interesting both in how applicable the resolutions are to many who aren’t using Sharepoint but instead use WebSphere Portal, Oracle WebCenter, Liferay, JBoss Enterprise Portal etc. I also like some of Joe Shepley’s more in depth discussion on where Sharepoint works compared to ECM or Social Software. It’s worth reading.
- Take the time to understand your true needs around core SharePoint capabilities, especially document management and collaboration
- Evaluate your current application landscape before thinking about making SharePoint 2010 your core ECM system
- Avoid thinking of coexistence between SharePoint and other applications as either/or
- Get everyone involved in charting your organization’s approach to SharePoint and its role in the larger content management ecosystem
- Use a pilot to refine your approach to SharePoint
- Create a Center of Excellence to act as an ongoing governance body as SharePoint and your other content management applications continue to evolve
