Difference between WSS and MOSS 2007?
- Thread starter qwertyjjj
- Start date
MOSS 2007 is the portal system, comparable to Sharepoint Portal Server 2003. It brings a wealth of built-in functionality and interoperability to a company's intranet over and above the functions of WSS.

Does this mean that WSS is not accesibble outside of an intranet system? I believe there is some sort of upgrade that you can add to WSS allowing outside access from, say, a company's clients or partners on different networks?
...or is Sharepoint built completely around domain logons, etc.?

Also, those spreadsheets say there is no Worklfow approval processing in WSS 3.0 whereas I am led to believe tat this is present in the WSS 3.0 version ?

I believe WSS is integarted better with Office 2007. What is the integartion like with Office 2003?

WSS can still be accessable outside of an intranet. MOSS just comes with more features. MOSS is built on top of WSS v3. Compared to integration with office 2007, office 2003 is a joke.

Thanks.
Say you start with WSS 3.0, do you know if it is an "easy" upgrade to MOSS keeping all files, etc. intact?
What are the large dfferences in integration between 2003 and 2007? For example, the basics in 2003 must allow to users to at least open and edit files directly from Sharepoint without having to open the Sharepoint web portal?

the upgrade shouldn't be too ugly if you don't customize anything and only use out of the box stuff.
Opening docs without navigating through sharepoint to find it? sure...you just have to bookmark the link to the file.
