Bamboo Solutions Month's Highlights Product News and Updates

1 in 5 Companies Has Already Upgraded to SharePoint 2010 -
When Will You?

Take Bamboo's SurveyBamboo is currently conducting a major survey of customers and site visitors.  One of the most surprising data points we’ve seen is the rapid adoption of SharePoint 2010.  Over 1,300 individuals have responded to the survey so far.  19.18% report that their upgrade to SharePoint 2010 has either already occurred or is currently in progress.  Nearly 70% report that their upgrade to SharePoint 2010 will be complete within the next 12 months.

When is your organization planning to upgrade to SharePoint 2010?  There is still time for you to participate in our survey.  And remember that once you’ve completed the survey, you’re eligible to win an iPad, an iPod Nano and other great prizes.  We highly value your opinion, please make your voice heard today.

If you are among the early adopters, then you're probably excited to hear about the availability of our SharePoint-2010 products, such as Project Management Suite, over 31 products including Project Management Central (PM Central™). What other Bamboo products are SharePoint 2010-ready? Be sure to follow our product team blog posts on Bamboo Nation. You can see what's currently available and we'll continue to post our progress as we roll out more "2010-ready" products this fall.

How are we doing?

Many of the questions we asked in the survey were about the products and services Bamboo has to offer.  We’re proud to receive high marks on product quality, technical support, and product documentation.  We are also pretty excited to see that over 85% of you are satisfied with the frequency and content of the information we send to you, such as this newsletter.  Read Steve Gaitten’s post regarding early survey results on Bamboo Nation. 

It’s not too late to participate.  The survey only takes a few minutes to complete and the odds of winning a prize are certainly in your favor.

Cheers,

Team Bamboo
