Use Case: SharePoint Social Activity Analysis
A common SharePoint scenario: Your end users have begun to invest time and effort into using their My Sites and other social networking features inside SharePoint 2010, but as the administrator, you’re finding it very cumbersome to see just what kinds of activities your users are doing. Are their comments, notes, and statuses appropriate? What are they tagging? What documents have a high rating? Using SharePoint out of the box, you need to go through each and every user’s My Site and prune through the tabs of data. It’s not a very realistic task.
Using ControlPoint’s Social Activity Analysis, administrators can track all of the social activity across the entire farm and break out what each user has done into a single report. As shown in the screen shot below, the user “James Joyce” is expanded to quickly see the notes, comments, ratings, tags, and statuses that he has applied to documents across the farm.
This report can be automatically sent to your administrators, power users, department heads, and anyone else who needs insight into what users are saying about the content in SharePoint.
ControlPoint provides deep insight into what is happening inside SharePoint, and then allows you to take action on that information. Reports can be customized, automated, and archived for historical views on what is happening within your environment.
