Our Synaptica product enhancement strategy is to continuously develop useful and innovative ways for our clients to use Synaptica for their taxonomy and metadata management needs. So it wasn't a surprise when our clients asked us to provide an 'out-of-the-box' integration point into SharePoint.

Microsoft SharePoint has over one-hundred million licenses in place and its adoption continues to grow globally. In 2007 an IDC survey of 300 companies found 61% were deploying SharePoint enterprise-wide, and that 28% of those using SharePoint in specific departments were expected to expand usage to the enterprise within the next 12 months. With the introduction of SharePoint 2010, this growth is expanding exponentially.

With that kind of adoption and penetration across so many industries, it is impossible to ignore the impact that SharePoint is having as a portal for information and document sharing, both internally and externally. As a result, Synaptica is proud to announce an integration with SharePoint that addresses some of the known pain points that users have when trying to successfully use taxonomies within SharePoint to tag, search and discover documents and other content.
