Case Study
Ydesigns.com
Ydesigns develops and designs ecommerce web sites and is
also one of the leading developers of Yahoo! Stores.
Ydesigns works with their clients to continually help them
go to the next level with search engine optimization,
shopping search feeds and ecommerce consultation.
Ydesigns clients are located
throughout the world and we needed a secure way to
effectively communicate and collaborate with them online.
We also needed an efficient system to manage all of our
projects simultaneously. Here are some of objectives
Ydesigns accomplished with SharePoint:
-
Project Management System
- Secure Online
Client Workspaces
-
Ecommerce KnowledgeBase for Clients
- Client Surveys and
Polls
-
Task Roll up
Ydesigns uses SharePoint as
a project management system. As each new client comes aboard
a secure "sub-site" is created with just a few mouse clicks.
Each site already has the pertinent documents, tasks and
project outline. From there the site is used to post updates
and announcements, track progress and manage tasks. The
ability to "see" where the project is at all times has added
an increased level of comfort to our clients.
Ydesigns also adds value to
our customers by documenting our knowledge and "lessons
learned" in an online KnowledgeBase we call
ActiveKnowledge. There our clients can peruse a wealth of
information on ecommerce strategy, marketing, search engine
optimization, pay per click campaigns... anything and
everything related to online commerce. Like most things, if
it is successful, it can work for someone else and Ydesigns
believes in sharing the wealth.
Ydesigns
also benefits from SharePoint Surveys and Polls. Type in the
questions, click publish and invite people share their
opinion, it's that easy! We
have been able to quickly take the "pulse" of our clients
with SharePoint Surveys. |
