Handshake Software, a provider of SharePoint-based products and services to the legal market, has announced support for Microsoft Office 365 and SharePoint Online with its portal and integration products.

The new capabilities are aimed at allowing law firms to take advantage of SharePoint Online as part of Office 365 to deliver pages for matters, clients, and departments through integration with firms’ on premise and cloud-based systems including Aderant, Elite, iManage, NetDocuments, InterAction and other applications.

Handshake clients will be able to quickly migrate from on-premise SharePoint Portals or extranets to cloud-based versions without having to recreate their existing Handshake Software-based web parts and pages.

“These new capabilities will meet an increased demand from law firms moving to the Office 365 platform,” stated Douglas Horton, CEO and president of Handshake Software. 

Handshake Software’s architecture allows firms to use their custom web parts, Handshake integrations and security, whether in the Cloud or on premise.  The Handshake Software/SharePoint Online capabilities are available immediately and several clients are currently in the implementation process.
