The company deployed Microsoft
Office 2010 alongside Microsoft
SharePoint Server 2010 and
Microsoft Visio Premium 2010 in
its U.S. subsidiary. We were
excited about the ease of use of
the Office Fluent Ribbon interface,
and once we took a closer look at
all of the new application features,
we decided that it was the right
time to make the move to
Microsoft Office 2010, says

Through synchronization
between SharePoint Server 2010
and Excel 2010, Cushman &

and statistics; now, with the link
