7. About Attini
Attini Software delivers a range of SharePoint
solutions designed for business, both on 2007 and
2010
We enhance SharePoint's 'out of the box'
functionality by improving the user experience and
its social capabilities.
Our enhancements are complementary to
SharePoint's core platform and fit within an
organisation's broader IT strategy
Several large enterprises have already enhanced
their SharePoint intranet with Attini solutions
8. Our Vision for Attini
Attini subscribes to the philosophy that SharePoint
can, and must, become more social to support
knowledge mgt and internal conversations
Innovation no longer occurs inside the Enterprise, it
happens on the outside, on the Consumer internet
Peoples expectations have grown dramatically,
companies need to provide internal alternatives to
Facebook, Youtube, Flickr and Wordpress,
otherwise information leakage will happen
SharePoint is Social, but not Social enough, can’t
keep up with innovation happening between the 3
year release cycles
9. Our Approach with Attini
SharePoint is a fantastic and rich platform
We compliment, we don’t reinvent, SharePoint
only needs to be a little bit better
We bring Internet innovation to SharePoint in a
targeted way, tuning it to the Enterprise
We aggregate information into portals to make it
more discoverable, to make the best bubble to
the top and to unify the suite

Microblogging has exploded thanks to our friend Twitter. So what is a microblog? It is a short, limited announcement, message or comment where the writer sends out information in short, sharp bursts. In the enterprise, sites like Twitter or Yammer can provide instant, effective, real time one-to-many messaging. Attini Talk provides a way to make Twitter part of your intranet site and aggregate all the microblogging going on within your business. Keep all tweets within the company and find out what everyone has to say.
