SharePoint2Go provides a secure and mobile-optimized way for enterprise users to access Microsoft SharePoint from any smartphone or tablet using their existing credentials. It addresses key challenges of mobilizing SharePoint like lack of mobile optimization, authentication and security, and supporting a BYOD strategy. SharePoint2Go renders SharePoint content and apps in an intuitive interface, allows offline access to documents, and provides enterprise features like centralized deployment, management and security controls. It offers an alternative to native mobile apps by providing similar functionality through a mobile-optimized web interface without requiring separate app development or support for each device platform.

review
Mobile technology landscape is constantly changingMobile email with Blackberry to smartphones with consumer-designed apps/app storesInfluence of consumer devices and functionality on user behaviour and expectations

This screenshot shows MS SharePoint 2010’s standard mobile UI – not engaging or intuitive
Authentication and security is the most important aspect to mobile working for many enterprise IT departments‘an employee with a mobile device is essentially the same as an external user’
Developing mobile versions of enterprise applications with feature-parity on all mobile platforms to support BYOD can be highly costly to developer and problematic for corporate IT to manage and control
SharePoint can grow within an organisation with multiple instances, sites and farmsCustomizations – UI, branding, WebParts. How are these translated for mobile users?
SharePoint2Go provides a re-rendered/rejuvinated mobile UI for SharePoint, as well as managing authentication, subscriptions, rendering and presentation.
SharePoint2Go is a remote proxy: users are able to take advantage of 15+ authentication options, including using trusted authentication providers, like Yahoo or Windows LiveID, as well as token-based authentication to sign in to SharePoint securely.
