2. 1
How tibbr helps you better leverage your
investments in Microsoft SharePoint
tibbr enhances the value of Microsoft SharePoint by connecting your
company’s content repositories with the relevant colleagues, groups, and
systems across your entire business. By tapping the power of its subject-
based architecture, tibbr delivers SharePoint documents to the right
people at the right time inside your social workspace.
tibbr features bi-directional integration with SharePoint, both inside tibbr’s
platform and within SharePoint itself. With fine-grained policy management
and tight security between the two platforms, tibbr allows you to connect
colleagues with the content they need in SharePoint.
Feature overview
• SharePoint stream. As your users work from inside tibbr, they can
easily browse for a SharePoint document and attach it to a message in
tibbr’s activity stream, where colleagues can have discussions around it
– all without leaving the tibbr platform.
3. 2
• Upload to SharePoint. tibbr’s powerful, bi-directional capabilities
allows users to upload documents to a SharePoint library without
leaving tibbr.
• Integrated search & discovery. While using tibbr, your people can
search for documents, sites and libraries in SharePoint. Similarly, they
can search for tibbr content from inside SharePoint.
• tibbr SharePoint Web Parts. tibbr can be embedded anywhere
inside SharePoint, as a SharePoint Web Part. tibbr Web Parts deliver
contextually relevant information that’s being shared inside tibbr
subjects – and their activity streams – to the appropriate My Site inside
SharePoint as users access pertinent documents.
4. 3
• Mobile. Because tibbr is now a native app on all the major mobile
platforms (iOS, Android and BlackBerry), your users can access their
SharePoint content from anywhere.
• SharePoint events. tibbr can pull relevant SharePoint events (i.e. when
a document is checked in and checked out) into its activity stream.
Unlike other social platforms, it’s not a static fire hose of SharePoint
activities. Instead, tibbr ties SharePoint events to its powerful subject-
based taxonomy, making it possible to deliver the right SharePoint
event-based updates to the people who need them.
Bringing it all together: How tibbr and
SharePoint work in tandem
Secure Web Parts
• tibbr provides pre-built – yet easily configurable – Web Parts that deliver
tibbr content paired with relevant sites in SharePoint.
• Easily pair a Web Part to a Subject in tibbr. For example, the HR
Policies MySite and document library in SharePoint would be tied to the
corresponding HR subject in tibbr. So when a user visits this MySite,
they have the context of their colleagues’ updates right at
their fingertips.
5. • Through fine-grained administration, security of both private and public
groups in tibbr is honored inside of SharePoint.
Identity and policy management
• tibbr’s social networking profiles synch with Microsoft Active Directory to
add rich contextual information like expertise, hobbies, colleagues and
subjects of interest.
• Seamless identity management ensures that people only access the
SharePoint content they have access to while in tibbr, and vice versa.
• tibbr’s subject-based architecture can be tied into SharePoint MySites,
allowing you to pair relevant content in SharePoint with the people who
need it most.
Standards support and system requirements
• Support for Microsoft SharePoint 2010.
• tibbr Web Parts for SharePoint are based on Web-based standards and
technologies, including AJAX, javascript and CSS 3.0.
• tibbr works on all modern Web Browsers, and available as native app
on mobile platforms, including iOS, Android and BlackBerry. For more
