SharePoint Embedded (aka Repository Services) is now in Public Preview 

This blog is published hot in the heels of the public announcement of SharePoint Embedded going into Public Preview. During its early life through development and developer preview stages this was known as Syntex Repository as a Service (RaaS) and also Repository Services. SharePoint Embedded will offer a great foundation for ISVs to deliver extended extranet, DMS and CMS scenarios.

Atlas by ClearPeople is a Microsoft Content AI preferred partner and one of Microsoft’s launch partners with a SharePoint Embedded roadmap.

The transformation of Microsoft Syntex into SharePoint Premium represents an enhancement in Microsoft's content services platform. SharePoint Premium is positioned as an AI-powered content management and experiences platform designed to boost productivity and optimize content value.

Syntex will sunset as a brand and become part of SharePoint Premium, encapsulating its AI-powered content processing capabilities within the new premium offering. This rebranding was officially announced at Ignite on November 15, 2023.

Microsoft SharePoint has been a popular enterprise content management and collaboration platform for many organizations. However, with end of life support dates, you will need a SharePoint migration best practice guide.

In late 2020, Microsoft released SharePoint Syntex.

What is the difference between out-of-the-box intranets and SharePoint intranets? When choosing an intranet solution, organizations often find themselves weighing the pros and cons of out-of-the-box intranets versus SharePoint intranet. This blog aims to clarify the key differences between these two options, helping you make an informed decision for your business.

Looking for a new intranet and wondering whether to use SharePoint? If you’ve searched up ‘intranet sharepoint’ / 'sharepoint intranet' you’re not alone.

SharePoint isn’t just a default however, it’s also a solid option; just ask the 200,000-plus organizations and 190 million people who use SharePoint for their intranets, team sites and content management.

And to add to SharePoint’s appeal, Microsoft has added SharePoint Connections to its offerings.
