The only limitation respect Search Server Enterprise is the scalability.<BR/><BR/>So, I would recommend both products for a small business company with 20-30 users.Àlexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10077073064731942315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267421720470194645.post-84141800960461252962008-04-29T11:54:00.000-07:002008-04-29T11:54:00.000-07:00would either of the options you mentioned be viabl...would either of the options you mentioned be viable for a 20-30 employee company? the effort in the first place and the costs in the second.<BR/><BR/>Especially when you can get the same fuctionality, altho not completely customized, but customized enough from a small business perspective.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267421720470194645.post-38821038545168750782008-04-25T02:20:00.000-07:002008-04-25T02:20:00.000-07:00Yes,It is true.

WSS is included in W2K3 license and gives you a collaborative environment OOB. If you combine it with Search Server Express (free) you have the base for a perfect collaborative environment, and it could be extended through development using SharePoint Designer and Visual Studio, or directly with solutions provided by the community (codeplex, codeproject, ...).<BR/><BR/>About MOSS, it could be considered expensive if you do not leverage all of its functionality. What would be the price of a custom development with all of the functionalities of MOSS?Àlexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10077073064731942315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267421720470194645.post-8347756683077913592008-04-24T08:05:00.000-07:002008-04-24T08:05:00.000-07:00each of the above has drawbacks as follows:-Micros...each of the above has drawbacks as follows:-<BR/><BR/>Microsoft Lite & Microsoft Small Business - The main attraction of these applications is that they are free. But they lack comprehensive functionality as needed in a business context, namely - intranet/extranet publishing, integrated email, document management, calendars, contacts, task management, mobile access.<BR/><BR/>SharePoint Hosted - It doesnt provide instant deployment. The basic solution still requires some configuration an customization.<BR/><BR/>SharePoint Full - Expensive!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
