Forrester Research last week published a report on SharePoint, Yammer, and Microsoft’s direction for the two.  I’ve always found the analysis put about by the likes of Forrester and Gartner to be far more important than the common buzz that gets tweeted and blogged around the internet because, bottom line, their material targets CIOs outright.  […]

The Perficient team was represented in force at Microsoft’s Worldwide Partner Conference (WPC) in Houston last week, where we were honored as Microsoft’s US Partner of the Year award winner.  In addition Perficient was thrilled to win three additional awards, validating our  Cloud expertise and commitment.  From the news release which can be read here […]

Today on Twitter @1PM Eastern, I’ll be part of the CMSWire expert panel engaging in a TweetJam on social business! In this discussion, titled “What’s Next for the Social Enterprise,” I’m joining a pretty distinguished set of panelists for an hour of yammering (ahem) around the future of social business tools and the enterprise social […]

We’ve read the posts, we’ve heard the presentations, we’ve seen the MTC sessions– but what exactly does Microsoft’s new strategy for Enterprise Social mean?  I’m going to try and break that down both for IT architects and the average consumer.  (See an annotated image version here for easy sharing.) Ever since Jared Spataro’s official update […]

We recently hosted a webinar on Office 365, where my colleague Rich Wood discussed what’s new and improved when it comes to the latest release of SharePoint Online. Rich, Director of Perficient’s National SharePoint Practice, gave attendees nine great reasons to love the new SharePoint Online. The tenth topic focused on Yammer, as Rich delved into SharePoint Online […]

As a veteran concertgoer, I’ve picked up some great tactics over the years for how best to enjoy live music.  How not to spill your drink on random strangers.  Where and how to scan the masses for old friends from days long past.  How to snake through the crowd before the show and find just […]

Yammer on Tour was in Chicago yesterday and I diligently took notes to share with you. Most of the event was, frankly, dedicated to why social is great, rather than what makes Yammer stand out. Value of social collaboration is a very interesting topic, but when you attend a Yammer event you want to learn […]

We recently hosted a webinar on SharePoint’s social business capabilities and Microsoft’s social roadmap, SharePoint as a Social Business Platform. Guest speaker Rob Koplowitz from Forrester, and Perficient’s own SharePoint Practice Director, Rich Wood, dug into SharePoint from a social perspective, and shared their thoughts on where Microsoft is headed in terms of social business. […]

I’m pretty fired up for my webinar tomorrow on Microsoft’s direction for enterprise social technology.  It’s always fun to talk about a company I love, a set of products that I’ve built my career on, and the pace of change in this exciting arena. We’ll talk Microsoft, SharePoint, Yammer, history, strategy, roadmaps, and maybe even […]

Microsoft’s direction for enterprise social is a little more clear this morning.  And I’ll be honest, the roadmap for organizations willing to move this workload to the cloud—in whole or in part—is pretty exciting.  Questions still remain around just how well this approach covers on-premise deployments, however, and I’d like to spend a little time […]
