Colligo Networks announced Colligo Contributor 4.0, the new version of the software suite that lends offline access and desktop interface to MS Sharepoint. The 4.0 release expands the suite's capabilities with a pair of tools
that touch the core of SharePoint's capabilities: a new file manager
and an uploader for Outlook. The new
software is an extension to Windows Explorer that allows users to
integrate files within their systems with SharePoint document
libraries, essentially making any document on the desktop accessible
from the platform at will. Uploader for Outlook takes the files you'd
normally just attach in Outlook, and moves them to SharePoint for you to
link to, rather than weigh down your Exchange server. Other features incorporated in to 4.0
include an enhanced SDK, one-click attachments, and drag-and-drop
control of folders.
