Happy 2016

Filed under: Non-work — frederique @ 12:17

I wish you all the best for 2016, both in your work and in your private life. So I am not just wishing you joy with Office 2016 and SharePoint 2016. I mean the real life year 2016 as well.

Happy new year

Talking about SharePoint 2016, it seems like the most interesting aspect of that new version of SharePoint is that it exists at all, on-premises. I am a business consultant and I focus on the features and value added for the end-users. And SharePoint 2016 was promoted as “the first product in history without new features for the user”… Nevertheless, the new SharePoint does help the users in an invisible way: it is more robust and closer to the version of SharePoint in Office 365. This makes the IT side easier, so that the IT guys have more time to concentrate on delivering business value, like hybrid search in SharePoint Online + On-Prem. We’ll have interesting work to do in 2016!
