Greetings SharePoint lovers! My name is Mike Ferrara, and I have the privilege of representing SharePoint Reviews with a new column called, OnPoint.

I know it sounds like a rehab center (you can find me in room 23 on the Twitter floor), but it was too catchy to pass up! But in all seriousness, this column will serve as your direct resource to what is happening at SharePointReviews.com. My goal is to provide you with relevant SharePoint news and happenings from the people in this community. There are a lot of people working hard to provide quality content, and we want you to know about it!

Without going any further, I want to thank Inna Gordin and Ilya Kats for their hard work and dedication to making this site what it is now. Without their vision and commitment, this site would not even be in existence. If you're new to the site, allow me to explain what it's all about, so you can truly appreciate what these two have done for the community.

SharePointReviews.com is the leading source on the internet for all SharePoint product reviews including: web parts, solution accelerators, tools and add-ins. Hundreds of decision-makers visit our site every day looking for the best products to enhance their SharePoint experience. Our network of SharePoint experts provide unbiased reviews that help in choosing the right solutions from the myriad of options available. The content we provide is completely independent and impartial. We strive for direct involvement from the developers themselves, but there is no exclusivity here. Whether the product is from a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner or a brand new upstart, it will get the same exposure on our site. So not only do potential buyers find the information that they need about SharePoint third-party products, but the community itself is wholly responsible for providing this information.

How can you get involved in this community?

1. Register for our site. It takes less than a minute, and you'll immediately have the ability to offer basic product reviews and participate in our forums.
2. Follow our twitter feed.
3. Email me with any ideas, suggestions or comments that you have.
4. Write an expert review of a SharePoint product. If you have experience with a particular product featured here, then please consider writing an in-depth "expert review" for it. Expert reviews are screened before being published, so please email me at the address above if you are interested.
