MyDocs makes email easy on SharePoint
November 21, 2008: A new tool that makes it simple to place Outlook and Lotus Notes emails into SharePoint and share those files within a document library has been released by nSynergy.
myDocs is an enterprise email management tool based on SharePoint that enables users to store and search for all related documents, whether in spreadsheets, email, pdf or other formats.
Email management has become a high priority for all businesses, both large and small, with most written correspondence being delivered in email form. Businesses can use tools like SharePoint to manage most of their important business documents, but the inability to easily place emails into SharePoint and share those files within a document library is a problem that many SharePoint users have encountered.
With myDocs you can now use Outlook to drag and drop emails directly into specific folders that represent SharePoint document library folders. You can also view, open, create and access documents and emails directly within Outlook. With emails, documents and other files being accessible through Outlook, everyone in your workplace can use Outlook and SharePoint together to create a powerful yet simple document management tool.
myDocs leverages the familiarity of the Outlook interface and the powerful automated features of SharePoint. Metadata from emails such as Date Received, Date Sent, From and other fields are transferred automatically into a document library’s columns by simply dragging and dropping emails into Outlook folders. This makes it easier to filter and search for these emails and utilize the power of the SharePoint document library views.
myDocs allows you to easily save emails and email fields into SharePoint document libraries both online and offline and is fully compatible with SharePoint Portal Server 2003 & Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.
A server license is $US1800 while a client access license is $US49 and volume pricing is available.
