It’s Time to Get Your SharePoint Search House in Order

It seems like SharePoint Search rarely gets the love and attention it needs… You know why? Because who understands it all? You go to search for something.. it returns a ton of results that mean nothing… the users get frustrated and they stop using it!

You know who’s fault that is? If you are reading this, it just might be you?

Search is one of the least understood but most powerful features of SharePoint, and if you aren’t using it properly you probably know it by now.

Are you properly managing SharePoint Search in your organization? Do you even understand all the capabilities? Are you missing out on easy wins for your organization? If you aren’t handling search well, you are missing out on some massive ROI in SharePoint and Office 365.

Seriously, it’s time to get your house in order my friend… Luckily for you, we have the preeminent search expert in the world Agnes Molnar from SearchExplained.com presenting a full day SharePoint Search workshop with the brilliant Matthew McDermott in Branson, Missouri as part of the North American Collaboration Summit on March 16th. This is truly a great opportunity for you to finally wrap your head around SharePoint Search and get the most out of it…
