iServer SharePoint Connector - Synchronize Your EA Repository with Your Document Management System

iServer SharePoint Connector makes it possible to store and synchronize items within the Repository (documents and diagrams) with those in Microsoft SharePoint to ensure EA information adheres to your corporate document management policy

Organizations that use SharePoint as the primary document management system can continue doing so whilst synchronizing these with diagrams within iServer. In this case iServer is primarily used to as collaborative modeling environment (to create and edit Visio diagrams and MS Office documents) whereas SharePoint is used as a central document storage point.

Benefits of iServer SharePoint Connector

Most organizations use SharePoint either as their formal document management system or informally for team sharing.  By using the SharePoint Connector, you can use the Architecture repository to control and manage your Architecture deliverables, documents and building blocks, whilst retain compliance with your corporate document management policy and or normal working practices.  Any SharePoint users will have visibility of the models and documents developed and managed in iServer and will eliminate the need to maintain two versions of the documentation.
