Excellent Book on SharePoint Services 3.0 |
|
I have to say that this is an excellent book that will quickly bring you up to speed on MS SharePoint Services 3.0. As a network administrator and IT consultant of more than 15 years - this book quickly helped me dive into the world of SharePoint and also provides the in-depth content to continually develop deeper knowledge of the inner workings and architecture of SharePoint. This book is also exceptional because if focuses entirely on SharePoint SERVICES and not on SharePoint SERVER. I am very impressed. |

Excellent Administrator's Guide |
|
Although the typos are numerous, this book is an excellent guide for SharePoint administrators. SharePoint users probably won't want to wade through all the technical details included in this book so it shouldn't be difficult to keep it on the administrator's desk. If you get just one book, get this one! |

More an Admin Book for WSS 3.0 |
I should have read all the reviews on this. I thought it was a developer book. But having said that, I thought this book is quite informative to developers as well. There are some very minor typo errors but, as another reviewer said, I like the style of the author in the way he presented and discussed the subjects. I also like the timing of the small (and what I call) a "diversion" section where he mentions other things that may be somewhat related to the topic he was currently discussing.
Overall, I'd recommend this book as a companion book if you are a developer. Very good admin reference! It is probably the best one at the moment. |

Best SharePoint book out there |
|
If you are looking for a book that will actually explain how to install a single server or farm, this is it. The author goes into great detail, including how to set the SQL server permissions. Every SharePoint administrator should have this book. It is more useful than even the Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Administrator's Companion. |

Definitely 5 Stars |
I come to this as a database developer with 25 years experience and with absolutely no knowledge of SharePoint. I rarely write a review. But on this book, I had to do so.
When I first started to administer and develop in SharePoint, I knew nothing about it. So I got 5 books. I still use one other book (the development book) for the heavy lifting but most of the time I use Mastering Windows SharePoint Services by Callahan.
I have several friends in other organizations that administer SharePoint. The ones who have training and knowledge love it. Those that do not, hate it. This is one way to get that information.
First, Callahan shows in detail how to install and secure SharePoint as he lists the underlying functions such as email, searching, and accounts.
Then, one command at a time he takes us through the process of all the services - lists, libraries, web parts, work spaces, and others.
Next, he demonstrates how granular the rights and privileges can be given. Specific users can see, access, use, or modify exactly what the site director decides while he monitors the activity.
Each step of every example is demonstrated throughout. Then the background information is discussed in depth.
Whether you are new to SharePoint or you are an administrator on it, this book will answer most of your questions.
