Rating: - Best book on the market for users?
I'm an IT manager and SharePoint user. I'm not a SharePoint administrator, designer, or developer. I bought this book to learn how to better utilize SharePoint and learn more about the different things you can do with SharePoint.
I found the book to have a wealth of information of the type I needed. Like a lot of technical books it is difficult to read cover to cover. It presents a lot of information, much of which is repetitive since each follow on option repeats many of the same steps. ... Read More

- Why bother?
I had hoped this book would be different than most other SharePoint books (indeed, the majority of computer books) whose production process seems to follow this technique: (1) paraphrase the online help in the program (2) add screen shots (3) repeat for several hundred pages (4) kill trees. It isn't. I have encountered several issues in MOSS, and since tech support has been severely cut back at my office, there is no one knowledgeable to help troubleshoot those cases where you think you've followed the ...

Rating: - Okay but wordy
There are several books available for SharePoint installers and admins and designers, but there really aren't many out there for end users. This is one of the few, and it does cover most of the important subjects. It has a few shortcomings:
+ The language is not very approachable. Long sentences, tedious writing, and a bit too formal.
+ It makes assumptions about user permissions. It often says, "You can do x, y, and z," but the truth is that the user has to have the right permissions in SharePoint ... Read More
Rating: - Overly verbose
I found this book to have an overly verbose and repetitive writing style, reading almost like an advertisement for SharePoint.I kept thinking to myself `get to the point'. If you enjoy reading for reading's sake you might enjoy this book. However, if you are looking for tips and tricks to becoming SharePoint wizard you'll find yourself bogged down in the long-winded passages and begging for more substance.

- Just what I was looking for
I've got a bookshelf full of generic, IT-oriented Sharepoint administration books.They cover everything under the sun with respect to designing, deploying, configuring, and administering Sharepoint... if you're a network engineer.But this is the first book I've seen that I could just hand to a customer or a manager to help them start using the product as it was intended.It's full of easy-to-follow instructions and even some good ideas for scenarios on building different workspaces.I've bought this book ...
