Looking Forward to SharePoint Predictions For the year 2014

SharePoint enables organizations to work in a more efficient manner by allowing users to share information in a safe and uncomplicated manner. This .NET platform allows developers to create applications, besides take leverage of its offered amazing features such as document management capabilities, workflow engine and security system. So, to use this grand platform in a better way, SharePoint developers need to have a good understanding of all the beneficial features that come with it. 

In regards to SharePoint predictions for the coming year, there are a number of points that need mention. Most significantly, their should be an upward trend in customers using SharePoint with increasing emphasis on its reduced customization in the coming year. Microsoft considers customization not that crucial as the process neither make the processes better nor optimizes user experience. This may prove to be a good move as branding & customization bring a number of major challenges in case of migration projects. One of the main reasons behind SharePoint's customization in the past though is the urge in developers to learn the platform and try new things. 
 

SharePoint development may have opened windows of vast opportunities for the developers but it is also pretty true that their have been few issues related to it. Firms have witnessed challenges related with search server, RAM etc. This calls for an essential performance optimization for SharePoint to enable it run faster and more reliably. This is what ideally almost every IT firm would be looking forward to.

Content and information hold paramount importance for every firm but considering the current scenario it can be said that many organizations are unaware of the content under their belt. It can be said that in coming year, new SharePoint will treat information confidentiality with high priority. Stress will be more on minimizing the outflow of confidential information by offering improvised rights management functionality along with better encryption.
