Microsoft Ignite 2020 guide to SharePoint, OneDrive, Planner, Stream, Visio and Lists

‎Sep 14 2020 12:41 PM

“Change is the end result of all true learning.” – Leo Buscaglia.

 

[Update: we've adjusted this post, now after Ignite 2020, to reflect the on-demand nature of all the below content]

 

That statement is most true for change management. Microsoft Ignite 2020 was busy for attendees, speakers and community members interested in SharePoint, OneDrive, Yammer and Stream speakers; truly fired on all cylinders with sessions, attendance and questions throughout this year's conference – to give you that peek ahead with guidance and excitement.

 

We’re here to help – to push the end result in your favor. Some sessions were delivered via the Ignite website, while many live on the Microsoft 365 Adoption Center: Virtual Hub. This will both help IT pros, developers, and community champions prepare for the Ignite days and beyond (all links will go directly individual session pages to review each session on-demand).

Content and team collaboration with OneDrive, Microsoft Lists, Visio, and Planner

Microsoft 365 is designed to be a universal toolkit for teamwork – to give you the right tools for the right task, along with common services to help you seamlessly work across applications. OneDrive is the clear place to work across all files on web, desktop and mobile. SharePoint promotes the intelligent content service backbone that powers teamwork – to better collaborate on proposals, projects, and campaigns throughout your organization – and is integrated with Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Lists, Planner, Visio and much more.

 

These sessions put teamwork first:

 

There will also be two (2x) Ask the Experts opportunities focused on files, lists and tasks running in different time zones to ensure everyone has a chance to connect with our engineering and marketing teams for Q&A. Add them to your session calendar:

Project Cortex, knowledge discovery and content intelligence

Our world is rapidly transforming. The amount of data each of us must process is ever increasing. Project Cortex applies advanced AI to accelerate knowledge discovery and content management. Project Cortex automatically organizes content and expertise across your systems and teams, helping you to create topic pages that deliver just-in-time knowledge in the apps people use every day. And Project Cortex enables you to build no-code AI models that understand content, extract important information, and apply metadata to improve compliance, and accelerate content-centric business processes.

 

These sessions will find you before you find them:

Employee engagement and the intelligent intranet

Intranets remain a mission critical tool of digital transformation. They bring together multiple pieces of information, processes, and people to empower organizations to keep employees engaged and informed and to share knowledge and expertise. Modern SharePoint, along with Yammer and Microsoft Stream, is ready to power your entire intelligent intranet with more engaging, easier to create site and web content experiences that provide industry-leading time to value across mobile, web, and desktop.

 

These sessions will make you intelligent about the intelligent intranet:

IT pro administration, migration, and the developer platform

With growing digital data in your organizations, need for simplified governance of this corporate data and staying current in compliance are becoming critical for business’s success. With OneDrive, SharePoint and Microsoft 365, your data is in the most secure and compliant place. And we continue the journey to modernize the entire admin experience. The new admin and security centers offer much more control for migration, compliance, and overall management of your modern workspace.

 

And, devs, we got you covered, too: yo @Pernille-Eskebo/sharepoint --solution-name "hello-Ignite-2020." Dive into the latest SharePoint Framework innovation, Microsoft Graph power, and all the PnP goodness.

 

These sessions give you the control to manage and customize your Ignite IT needs to custom apps and APIs:
