Work dynamically with others and share information from any location.

Because Office Groove 2007 is desktop software, you can share information and work with others within and across organizations from any location, even when you are not connected to the corporate network.

Share information with team members in real time.

Team members can simultaneously update files and team discussions shared in Office Groove 2007 workspaces. Also, Office OneNote 2007 helps people in different locations to work together in real time by providing a live sharing session. In the live session, multiple people can view and edit the same page of notes, as well as tasks, research, and brainstorming ideas, all at the same time.

Maximize value and accessibility of all information.

With Office OneNote 2007, you can consolidate disparate pieces of information, including handwritten notes, audio and video recordings, formatted documents, and still images, in one place. When saved to Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, this previously unstructured content becomes available to all as part of an official project record. You can easily access content using the advanced search capabilities in Office OneNote 2007 and Office SharePoint Server 2007, avoiding expensive duplication of work.

Work together to share and store information easily.

Together, Office Groove 2007, Office OneNote 2007, and Office SharePoint Server 2007 provide a comprehensive environment in which teams and organizations can work together and share information. Office Groove 2007 and Office OneNote 2007 provide a rich set of team collaboration tools for dynamic work. And Office SharePoint Server 2007 provides longer-term storage and access tools for workflow, completed documents, and other project records.

Automatically synchronize with team members.

There's no need to download information from Office Groove 2007 workspaces or Office OneNote 2007 notebooks before going offline, or to upload changes when reconnecting. Offline work is automatically synchronized among all team members when an Internet connection is obtained. You can continuously access and work with the most relevant project data, whether online or offline.

Keep up-to-date with notification of project changes.

In Office Groove 2007, you can monitor team member activity and changes to documents, gaining greater visibility of the most recent project information. Auditory and text alerts notify you of specific changes, eliminating the need to check for updates.

Improve efficiency of e-mail storage and bandwidth.

Office Groove 2007 and Office OneNote 2007 both help reduce e-mail storage needs by moving collaboration activities out of e-mail, eliminating the need to e-mail documents and helping your e-mail account to stay within its storage capacity. Also, Office Groove 2007 handles data synchronization efficiently. Only changes to files are sent, reducing bandwidth use and speeding up your exchange of information with team members.

Increase security of shared information.

When you use Office Groove 2007, you get advanced security protection with strong encryption, even on disconnected laptops and during data synchronization on wired and wireless networks. This security helps you keep intellectual property under your control.

Work with other Microsoft Office system software.

Office Enterprise 2007 integrates with other Microsoft Office system software, including Office SharePoint Server 2007, Microsoft Office Communicator 2007, and Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007. This integration enables you to work smoothly among these programs. For example, a team can use Office Communicator 2007 and Office OneNote 2007 together to add video and instant messaging content and capabilities to an Office OneNote 2007 live sharing session. Content created in Office Groove 2007 and Office OneNote 2007 can also be stored as a long-term project record in Office SharePoint Server 2007.
