With the launch of SharePoint 2010 just around the corner, speculations are rife about how it will impact organizations. I came across a good blog entry on what SharePoint 2010 could mean for growing businesses. The entry talks about a recent Forrester report which concludes "Sharepoint 2010 may be overkill for some". Although SharePoint 2010 has bolstered its application development capabilities, web compatibility and social media features, it is still not suitable for companies which are looking for basic out of the box functionality. Moreover, no matter what the changes in the 2010 version of SharePoint, it remains a server based solution, designed for IT handlers, with the needs of enterprises in mind. It remains to be seen how SharePoint evolves its online version to suit the needs of SMBs. For now "SharePoint alternatives" seem like the best option for growing organizations.
