“Partner sales grew over 300 percent from the first to the second quarter of

the Colligo Partner Program, Microsoft Partners are able to increase their
SharePoint business. Colligo partners differentiate their SharePoint offering
with premier desktop software that solves three business challenges: (1)
anywhere productivity with offline access for mobile workforces, (2) browser
latency with local caching of SharePoint content for an instant user experience,
and (3) Outlook integration to support email drag-and-drop and better content
management.”
“Our partnership with Colligo was a strategic decision,” said Tim Wallis, CEO of
Content and Code Ltd. in the United Kingdom. “Colligo for SharePoint fits
well with our business model and allows our customers to meet key requirements,
including the capability of working offline and great drag-and-drop
functionality. Colligo for SharePoint allows our customers to expand on an
existing MOSS platform and opens opportunities to branch out within the
organizations.”

Services Firm Drives Adoption of SharePoint for Email Management” highlights
one of Content and Code’s customer success stories. Geoff Carter, Head of ICT
Business, IT Services at

that it is driving adoption of SharePoint. It improves access by making
SharePoint libraries and lists available in an Outlook folder tree. More
importantly, users can easily drag-and-drop emails to document libraries,
improving centralization and management of content, while enhancing
collaboration across departments." The Learning Trust is a not-for-profit
