RobElliott  My question is "what guidance would you offer in planning this relaunch?"

is it just, move the existing content, and reset all ?

or is there something special to do to unwind the existing sites.

 

thanks

    Amy_Sutryn well I think the first thing is to work out what your site(s) is for. Is it an intranet? Is it a document repository? Or a combination of both? Approach your business and find out what data/information/content they want on the SharePoint site. You need to work out WHY people will go to your site and make sure they can find the information they want.

      Hi Rob,

      yes, I understand about identifying what we need.

      that's not my question.

       

      I'm interested in knowing what steps to take or things to consider when I go to  unwind what we already started so that we can start over and configure the system correctly for what we need.

       

      hope that helps you help me!

      thanks

      Amy
