Well last Friday saw the final communities roll out the door.
What can I say, I’ll be sorry to see Plumtree go but it’s time to embrace the brave new world.
So what did we achieve?
- We built a custom tool that Migrate Projects from Plumtree to Sharepoint, mirroring security and audit history
- We built a custom web part that can query folders/views cross site collection and build a treeview from what it finds. This is our primary navigation, our site map and used as an Explorer style tool for looking at document libraries in other site collections
- We implemented a User Interface that was so close to our bespoke Plumtree one, no users could tell the difference at first sight
- We migrated 170 communities and over 400 projects in around 2 months using a migration team of 6 and 5 unbelievably adaptable business representatives
