A new age in application development - ClientPoint, CampaignPoint and ProjectPoint are the first in a range of business class solutions based on SharePoints native templating capabilities. These templates preview a new age of web based solutions that expand the boundaries of functionality, interconnectivity and extensibility of application design.

Building Powerful SharePoint Business Solutions.SharePoint is a fantastic Portal and Business solution platform, that’s why it’s one of the fastest growing solutions Microsoft has ever had. Like most Microsoft technology platforms one of its key strengths is its open architecture that allows sophisticated Microsoft ISV partners to enhance its features and capabilities. The team have brought together a family of ISV partners and solutions to create an off the shelf SharePoint enhancement platform called the SharePoint Platform Accelerator (SPA).

SharePoint Platform Accelerator - “Business ready SharePoint”
Timing is everything with business applications. Speed to market is essential for competitive advantage. Satisfying customer requests as quickly as possible is critical to retaining business. Being agile enough to meet a supply-chain partner's new integration requirements can make or break a deal. Today the IT solution layer you deploy can either kill or transform your business, and in this space SharePoint is fast becoming the solution of choice. Even in its standard form this is a powerful and flexible platform.

As early pioneers in enhancing SharePoint, we have considerable expertise and experience in SharePoint enhancement tools. We have used this expertise and sector contacts with leading Microsoft ISVs to develop a composite multi-vendor SharePoint Platform Accelerator Framework and a “lite” licensing model. The SharePoint Platform Accelerator Framework (SPA) platform balances productivity with flexibility and cost. It enables you to maneuver quickly as-required for your business applications. Powered by the Microsoft Server Solution Framework, SPA delivers high productivity tools to accelerate every aspect of development.

ClientPoint is the first of a new generation of enterprise class business solutions based on SharePoint. To be specific these templates need to be installed on an enhanced SharePoint WSS v3 platform which is created by upgrading the standard environment with the SharePoint Platform Accelerator (SPA). This provides advanced additional services and features that are deeply integrated with Microsoft WSS v3. Effectively the SPA provides all the capabilities needed to turn WSS v3 into a complete development and delivery platform for advanced business applications based on SharePoint without the need for coding.

These applications can be deployed internally or remotely hosted, allowing them to also address the growing SaaS market.
