The 7 Structural Barriers of SharePoint
Microsoft SharePoint is a robust platform. It is most widely used as a collaboration application. However, it is also a very robust development platform. CorasWorks has built its comprehensive software suite on this platform to make it easier for organizations to build applications as part of an integrated environment like Breeze without the time and expense of extensive custom code development.
A major part of the custom development that is normally done without CorasWorks is to build applications that transcend the 7 core structural barriers of SharePoint. These barriers create walls that constrain your ability to design, build, and manage the applications that your organization needs. Since SharePoint often becomes a rather large hierarchical and horizontal environment, most organizations want to be able to work with information across these barriers. The more you want to do with SharePoint and the more integrated you want to make your environment – the greater these barriers will be.
The CorasWorks system solves the barrier issues by separating the UI components of Displays, Forms, and Actions from the data. The UI components are simply configured to connect to the data that you want. Thus, you are able to See, Contribute and Act on information from anywhere in your work environment.
For a detailed review of the 7 structural barriers and its impact on your ability to build business value with SharePoint see the 7 Barriers to SharePoint white paper.
Here we will walk you through each of the 7 barriers and provide you with specific examples of the barriers and how CorasWorks overcomes them. We’ll also provide you with direct links into the Breeze Demonstration Environment where you can experience it for yourself.
