We are committed to making ShortPoint products competitive, value-adding, and easy to use. By listening to your feedback and feature requests, we can stay true to this commitment and address your needs as they arise.

As a top priority, we are implementing a new feature request channel where you can provide us with your insights, use cases, feature requirements, and more. It also offers transparency about what features we are currently working on, timely updates about your feature requests, and where product development is generally headed.

Watch out for more information about this cool platform coming your way soon.

 

Copy and Paste Your Way to a Gorgeous

Intranet Site

One of ShortPoint’s best features is the Copy and Paste functionality. It enables intranet designers to easily and quickly create engaging and beautiful SharePoint sites by copying design templates from our Demos library or existing pages and pasting them into a new page within a few clicks.

With the introduction of ShortPoint Page Builder Live Mode and the enhancements to Grid Mode in the current beta release, we’ve gone in and published video tutorials to walk you through the new features and similarities between the editing interfaces. We hope you find the tutorials useful as you transition to the new ShortPoint Page Builder version and make you ready to embrace the rest of the exciting features it offers that will surely elevate your SharePoint designing experience moving forward.

The Faces of ShortPoint

Meet Janelle, Our QA Specialist

At ShortPoint, we do not release a new update or product fix without our quality guardians testing and evaluating that our product works at its best, as it should. Today, let us get to know Janelle, our QA Specialist and a member of our powerhouse Quality Team who works out of Laguna in the Philippines.

Janelle enjoys meticulously testing new product features and releases. It provides her an avenue to continuously learn and improve her skills. But when asked about what she loves most about her job, she highlights the great colleagues she has at ShortPoint who are like family and that the company truly cares about its employees.

Janelle is a mother of two, Stefan and Seah, and a fur mom of their dog Sup (short for Supreme) who she considers as her third child. Her husband operates a local clothing store and the family also runs a small restaurant that serves delicious Filipino dishes. They love to travel to farms and beaches, stay in hotels, and create memories together. She is looking forward to having a repeat of their Bohol (a popular tourist destination in the Philippines) experience which was a very good mix of beach and forest they truly enjoyed. During her downtime, Janelle enjoys putting together scrapbooks. We look forward to seeing what memories she preserves in them.

See you in March!

More exciting news are planned for March. Stay tuned! And if you have any questions, suggestions or feedback, please send us a note. We love to hear from you.

See you next month, ShortPoint hero!
