Nintex Workflow 2010 builds on SharePoint 2010 platform improvements, such as the Fluent ribbon interface, reusable workflows, site workflows, content type workflows, InfoPath forms and the ability to export workflows to Visual Studio® 2010. Nintex Workflow 2010 can be easily extended and customized with User Defined Actions, which allows workflow segments to be packaged and shared within other workflows and custom workflow actions developed in Visual Studio.

The release announcement was made at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference which commenced in Washington DC in July 2010. The Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference was chosen as the announcement venue to acknowledge the role partners have had in the success and ongoing development of Nintex Workflow. A close relationship with Microsoft was fundamental in affording Nintex early access to Microsoft SharePoint 2010 and ensured Nintex was able to tightly integrate Nintex Workflow with SharePoint 2010.

“Nintex Workflow 2010 builds on the workflow capabilities in SharePoint 2010 and helps make simple or complex processes more efficient,” said Jared Spataro, director for SharePoint at Microsoft Corp.

Executive Summary

Enterprise Content Management (ECM) has become a key business priority for most organizations. The amount of business information created and shared is increasing in size and speed every day, government compliance requirements are becoming more stringent, and key business tasks require accurate and fast access to records, documents, and other information. Without content management, information becomes chaos – unmanaged, not searchable, and processes rely more on employee institutional memory than technology. Additionally, users waste time looking for or recreating documents and information, and businesses may pay penalties for documents and information that are accidentally lost or released publicly.

Most business executives recognize the need for a robust ECM solution, but most traditional ECM offerings only provide comprehensive, mission-critical content management designed for a small set of users (working with a team, department, or content type) and focus on security and compliance over usability and collaboration. Enterprise Content Management with Microsoft® SharePoint® Server 2010 delivers both a high quality solution that stimulates and delivers user participation, and the tools for highly secure, well-managed content.

SharePoint Server 2010 enables companies to democratize content management and improve organizations by providing content management to all employees and compliance across all documents. This leads to better, faster, and more secure processes that can be managed through a familiar environment, integrated into business collaboration infrastructure, and built on a trusted and extensible platform. With ECM in SharePoint Server, you can:

• Drive participation – Avoid chaos and end-user resistance
• Ensure Compliance – Avoid risk by controlling unmanaged content, including Social content
• Save Costs – Avoid high costs of point solutions, especially where not needed.

1. Large Lists and Libraries – Microsoft have made architecture and user experience investments so you have much larger document libraries with metadata driven navigation to help users go quickly to the content that is most important to them. Libraries will scale to tens of millions and archives to hundreds of millions of documents. This is a key investment for high-end document and records management but also helps organizations with lots of smaller sites. Microsoft have enhanced the workflow capabilities and tools in SharePoint Designer.
2. Enterprise Metadata – Microsoft are addressing the feedback to support content types and taxonomies across not only across sites but also server farms. Theyhave made applying this metadata easy (and valuable to users) in both the SharePoint and Office client user experience. The top-down taxonomy and bottoms-up social tagging (sometimes called folksonomy) combine to help improve search, navigation and people connections.
3. Document Sets – Microsoft are introducing a way to manage a collection of documents as a single object for workflow, metadata, etc. within SharePoint and Office so experience more closely models your work product (e.g. a proposal that may contain a presentation, budget, contract, etc.).
4. Web Publishing including Digital Asset Management – Microsoft have made a number of key improvements to make it easier to publish rich sites on the intranet or internet. They used the new browser ribbon and editor experience to speed site customization, content authoring and publishing tasks. Microsoft added digital asset management features like thumbnails, metadata and ratings for images as well as video streaming from SharePoint. Finally, they have improved content deployment robustness from authoring to production for larger scale sites.
5. Governance and Records Management – Compliance is an increasingly important requirement for organizations. Microsoft have enhanced the Records Managements features in 2010 building on the scalable storage and enterprise metadata support described above. They have improved the sophistication and flexibility of the governance tools. Just a few new features include location-based file plans, multi-stage dispositions, in-place records and e-discovery.
