Product Information

Microsoft Groove Server 2010 provides the server-side functionality for Groove based features in SharePoint Workspace 2010. With Groove Server 2010, deployed in combination with SharePoint Workspace 2010, business teams can work together by sharing data, files and workspaces dynamically — anywhere, anytime, and with anyone — without compromising IT standards or security, or substantially increasing infrastructure costs.

Features

Extends SharePoint Workspace 2010

SharePoint Workspace 2010 enables sharing and synchronisation of both SharePoint Workspaces and Groove Workspaces via Groove Server. Workspaces can work within your organisation and across firewalls and network boundaries.

Easy to manage

Administrators can automatically synchronise user accounts with the existing Active Directory service and SharePoint Workspace users can manage their own workspaces by using their Active Directory account. Accounts can easily be disabled or deleted to temporarily or permanently remove a user's access to workspaces.

Comprehensive IT policies

Create and enforce your own unique security policies for each user and domain to ensure maximum security and compliance.

Groove Server Relay

Groove Server Relay helps team members keep their workspace up-to-date automatically where ever they are in the world by providing an efficent 'store and forward' service that keeps workspaces in sync.

And more

• Reporting tools provide an overview of the usage of SharePoint Workspace within your domain
• Easily share large files with 'fan out' technology that minimises network bandwidth usage
• New IPv6 support (along with continued support for IPv4).
