My Sites

My Site is your own personal site within your organization’s intranet.  My Sites are native to SharePoint Server and provide a place for you to save and share your own work.  My Sites also offer a way for you to find other people in your organization and see their work and vice versa. 

Eastridge has been working worked with My Sites since their introduction in 2007 and have helped organizations customize them to fit their needs.  Our customers particularly like the ability to quickly locate an employee with a particular skillset or experience.

Outlook Social Connector

Outlook Social Connector is an add-in that enables users to connect to and receive updates from their social network inside Outlook. When users view their emails, a name, picture, and title is available for the person they are contacting. Upcoming appointments can also be viewed with this new feature and users can request friends.  Outlook Social Connector currently supports Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace and Windows Live Messenger.

Eastridge understands the importance of social networks in today’s business landscape.  We can assist with Outlook Social Connector set up and provide custom connectors in the event you utilize other social mediums that are unsupported.​​​​
