Product Description

Get Control of Your SharePoint Colleagues

One of the downsides to SharePoint 2010's 'follow' style colleague connections is that users cannot control who is and is a colleague. In SharePoint 2010, you simply add Colleagues and you can start seeing their Activity Feeds, Profile and other information based on their security settings. The downside is that if your organization works with a lot of external staff (contractors, volunteers, etc.) you will want to protect your organization's and user's privacy by requiring that everyone 'Approve' who a colleague much like other Social Networking sites. SP Colleague Connect allows you to enable this capability in your SharePoint environment and provides the additional web parts you will need to review and approve colleague requests.

 

SP Colleague Connect Overview

SP Colleague Connect is an add-on for SharePoint 2010 that fully leverages the SharePoint 2010 Colleague capabilities while providing users the ability to approve who their colleagues are. When activated, SP Colleague Connect intercepts a typical Colleague request and places it in 'Pending' status and emails the user that they have a request waiting their action. The user then makes the determination of whether to 'Accept' or 'Ignore' the request. Once a request is accepted, the colleague connection is made in SharePoint and all colleague benefits are activated (i.e. Activity Feeds, Profile Access, etc.)

 

Who Uses SP Colleague Connect?

Organizations that require a greater level control of their profile data, in particular, organizations that provide SharePoint access to external (non-staff) users such as consultants, contractors, volunteers, etc. These organizations understand that the 'all or nothing' approach will not work for them.
