Session Overview: Extranets in SharePoint and Office 365 - IT Pro

SharePoint is a powerful tool for collaboration. This works well for users in your organization, but how do you extend it beyond the firewall? Approving and managing users, getting them their credentials, and dealing with forgotten passwords are some of the things that will frustrate both the business and IT. External sharing in Office 365 works well for light Extranets, but what if you want stronger governance and branding control. Learn about the different options, including how to delegate this to the business, and provide a seamless single sign on experience for your external users, either on premise or in the cloud.
