New Whitepaper: Drive SharePoint Adoption in Notes Shops
If you’ve been trying to find a path to make your document collaboration and project management more efficient, you’ll want to read this whitepaper. It gives you details about integrating SharePoint with your email client to encourage SharePoint adoption for Lotus Notes users.
How can you drive user adoption of Microsoft SharePoint when your users are committed to using IBM Lotus Notes? Early adopters readily embraced SharePoint for document collaboration using a Web browser. However, most mainstream IT users today are less inclined to adopt team collaboration spaces, primarily because SharePoint is not easily accessible from users’ day-to-day work environment.
We’ve just published a whitepaper, which explores the opportunity to encourage SharePoint adoption for document collaboration and project management, without demanding a wholesale change in users’ behavior, by integrating SharePoint with your email client. The paper provides guidelines for Lotus Notes customers that want to measure the impact that email integration with SharePoint has on user adoption, and reviews the merits of two IT options for integrating SharePoint with Lotus Notes: migration and Lotus Notes-SharePoint coexistence
Enjoy!

The big question is WHY do you want to drive Sharepoint adoption when your users are committed to using Notes? Surely it makes more sense to push Quickr into that environment. Are there any advantages for the customer to select the Sharepoint product when one of the key business drivers is integration with the existing Lotus Notes infrastructure?
It Makes Sense When...
If you're a "true-blue" Lotus shop looking to promote collaborative workspaces, Quickr is an excellent option -- particularly if you don't already have hundreds or even thousands of SharePoint sites in your organization.
We designed our software for the thousands of Lotus shops whose tech-savvy IT users adopted Windows SharePoint Services (a "free" component of Windows Server 2003 and 2007), and whose IT departments are now deploying Office SharePoint Server to enforce governance policies and procedures in their collaboration sites, enhance data protection, etc. They don't want their collaboration strategy compromised by the epic IBM-Microsoft battle. They simply want to promote mainstream user adoption of the collaboration sites that power users are already using every day....
