Covers only basic built-in functions This book is an overview of Groove for people that have never used it and need to learn how to use it out-of-the-box.
br /
br /I was hoping that this book would go into more detail on how to customize Groove using the Forms tool, but the book doesn't discuss the Form tool at all.
br /
br /So far I have been unable to find any books that describe how to use the Groove Platform API to truly customize Groove to an organization's specific needs.
"MSGroove" Springboard Groove
br /
br /What is it?
br / A Tool Box for Project Managers or Information Managers
br /How does it do it??
br / Groove is set up with 10 to 15 tools that will assist in the process of infomation transfer. Each tool is explained to the "T", about not only how, but when where the tool should be used.
br /Features glore.
br / The tools in MSGroove provide methods to track your meeting schedules, Meeteing Decisions, Meeting Notes and share the Project folders (Files), pictures, track issues, Alerts, project calendars, Integration of InfoPath forms, instant messages and the list goes on and on.
br / One important aspect is that the engineers realized you may need to use a specific tool over and over. Example is the calendar tool. You can create numerous calendars, for example, one calendar for each of your sub-contarctors, entering all the dates of expected work or information, then you can combine all the calendars into one complete calendar or combine any number of calendars together, somewhat like an overlay system adding one at a time to see if problems exist. Very Cool.
br / One small problem is that the sketch pad for doing your drawings needs to have an eraser for sketch errors
br / Groove can be a very powerful tool for any project PM or information manager. Combining this Program with "MS PROJECT" on the larger project side, provides complete project shareware anywhere.
br / Finally a ((secured workspace)) to share important information with your partners Employees in business. Not only can you share information, you can also allocate responsibilities and see the follow up, through the use of the Alert system. This program works on a server or on any stand alone PC to PC. If your looking for better ways to control project information, this is your baby and Rick, John Berry will take you through the information Step by Step.
br / My hat is off to the engineers of MS Groove.
br /Great Job Bill"M"
Very Helpful Book A great book for the beginner to more advanced "Groover". The screen shots are very helpful as is the commentary. The book is easy to read and follow. A must buy!
At last!! Groove has been around for about 7 years now and since it was bought by Microsoft in 2004 has enjoyed increasing popularity and usage. What was always missing was a resource that allowed "Joe/Jane user" to really understand how to get the best out of this intriguing application.
br /
br /Well, now you can quickly and easily make your self an expert or just a very competant user; thanks to this book. I have used Groove for a while and found some of the concepts a bit difficult to grasp. Groove is different and having an expert guide like this has helped me to open up a whole new world of possibilities and opportunites to use the tool to it's full extent.
br /
br /If you have Groove (or are thinking aboout it) this is a MUST have!
