What is the purpose of sharepoint?

Answer Posted / imran khan

It is Portal Collaboration Software
Office SharePoint Server 2007 provides a single integrated
platform to manage intranet, extranet, and Internet
applications across the enterprise.
Business users gain greater control over the storage,
security, distribution, and management of their electronic
content, with tools that are easy to use and tightly
integrated into familiar, everyday applications.
Organizations can accelerate shared business processes with
customers and partners across organizational boundaries
using InfoPath Forms Services–driven solutions.
Information workers can find information and people
efficiently and easily through the facilitated information-
sharing functionality and simplified content publishing. In
addition, access to back-end data is achieved easily
through a browser, and views into this data can be
personalized.
Administrators have powerful tools at their fingertips that
ease deployment, management, and system administration, so
they can spend more time on strategic tasks.
Developers have a rich platform to build a new class of
applications, called Office Business Applications, that
combine powerful developer functionality with the
flexibility and ease of deployment of Office SharePoint
Server 2007. Through the use of out-of-the-box application
services, developers can build richer applications with
less code
