Managing user requests for new SharePoint 2007 sites just got a whole lot easier. Our new Site Provisioning Assistant for SharePoint 2007 is now available for public beta evaluation.
SPA provides you with centralized management for controlling how new SharePoint 2007 sites are requested and provisioned in your organization. Based on provisioning profiles that you define, users are presented with an easy-to-use interface for requesting a new site. Site requests can be associated with custom workflows that match your organization"s approval process. Upon succesful workflow completion, SPA automatically provisions the SharePoint site, and notifies the requesting user.
