…but we do believe that Microsoft has got a couple of things quite right with Sharepoint 2013…
…we love technology, but we also start to realize how critical Social Readiness will be for succesful adoption in organizations…
OUR SIMPLISTIC APPROACH
Built & test innovation community
sites in Sharepoint
2013
Tenant of 25 seats
Sign up for Office 365 Enterprise
Trial
WHAT THEY GOT ‘QUITE RIGHT’
Office integration Mobile Open App store
Social & Collaborative Cloud
Build your own site easily
All of this worked almost bug-free during our trial period. If we should bitch about a couple of things: tag cloud display was on/off, profile picture changes took long, some site views on iPhone and iPad were flawed…
WHO ARE OUR COMMUNITIES, WHAT DO THEY DO AND WHAT DO THEY NEED?

we were positively surprised how straightforward these sites could be created in SP13:- lots of plug&play and drag&drop…- App store as a great and open resource
Creating sites with appealing social, collaborative and plug-in features (iframes) can be learned quickly and can be performed by beginner and medium-skilled sharepoint editors.
APP STORE – OPEN & VARIED, PLUG & PLAY
EXAMPLES OF SITES WE BUILT
PERSONALIZED SITE PAGEACCESS YOUR COMMUNITIES, STAY UPDATED ON YOUR FOLLOWED TOPICS AND PEOPLE
Hi, and welcome to the new Idea Web! Down here you can read latest innovation news…
We found that i-frame embedding of short tutorial clips creates a great response with test users…
Tiles enable captivating overviews over idea categories and on-going discussion activity
Gamification through top-contributor performance bars
Widgets to corresponding innovation content on major social media
IDEA CATEGORY DISCUSSION BOARD
RSS-feeds from external blogs with category-related content
WELCOME AND CODE OF CONDUCT
GLOBAL ASSAY COMMUNITY SITE
Hi, and welcome to the GaCom site! Over here you can follow the newsfeed…
ANNOUNCING SEMINARS, NEWSLETTERS AND DISCUSSING TECHNOLOGY
INNOVATION OFFICE DEPARTMENT SITE
department newsfeed, instead of e-mails!
Document repository and collaboration: *one place, one version*
Idea discussion board…
I-frame linking to external content
MOBILE VERSIONS We tested iPhone and iPad
Worked almost flawlessly
Some site views were bugged and did not win a beauty contest – yet…
But OK, considering that we work in a free beta version
iPad: Oops, were did the i-frame go?
iPhone: screen section displayed is a bit small …
?
CONCLUSION All in all this was a great first experience!
We are especially intrigued about: the social & collaborative features the ease with which we can build our own social sites
It seems Sharepoint 2013 is (almost) ready for today’s enterprise organizations
The question is: are today’s organizations ready for Sharepoint 2013 and similar social platforms?
The key will be digital profficiency on the individual, functional and enterprise level – adoption will be the big challenge!
SITES, BLOGS AND COMMUNITIES WE FOUND USEFUL TO SHARE EXPERIENCES ON SHAREPOINT 2013
GO BUILD AND HAVE FUN!
