While it’s always tempting to develop custom software, the sign of a seasoned developer is one who will look for out-of-the-box or third-party products before embarking on a development path. The same is true with SharePoint; it is always tempting to customize the layout and master pages, develop custom workflows, and even develop event handlers to change SharePoint’s behavior. But is it always necessary? Before ExpertAssist LLC will assist any customer with development, our first task is to ensure due diligence has been done and the customer is not reinventing the wheel, so to speak. SharePoint development is much more difficult than standard development. Even simple workflows in SharePoint Designer can take weeks to develop and even longer to validate and test. With that said, we do have certified SharePoint 2010/2013 developers on staff to assist with your custom development needs. In addition, we can provide insight on how our other clients have worked within the confines of SharePoint to deliver their custom solutions. Some examples of items ExpertAssist LLC has developed over the years:
Purchasing approvals with $115,000 return on investment (ROI)
Sales order approvals
NDA databases
Patent databases and business process automation
