The award-winning Colligo Contributor™ Pro is client software that drives SharePoint® adoption by enabling users to easily access, capture, and tag SharePoint content from popular desktop applications. It delivers the ultimate SharePoint experience through three interfaces: (1) an Add-In for Microsoft® Outlook® for 2-way access, email drag-and-drop, and automatic metadata capture, (2) a Windows Explorer® extension for seamlessly linking folders on users' file systems with SharePoint document libraries, and (3) a standalone client for rich metadata management and instant SharePoint access, online and offline, for remote and mobile workers.

Client, Outlook, & Windows Explorer The Contributor Client looks and acts like the default SharePoint web interface, but offers the improved user experience of a full desktop application. With the Add-In for Outlook, users can easily move or copy emails and attachments between Outlook and SharePoint. The File Manager seamlessly integrates SharePoint with Windows Explorer and intelligently links any application that uses a standard Windows File Open/Save dialog to SharePoint. |

Email Management Users can easily save emails and attachments to SharePoint through Send & File, drag-and-drop, or Outlook rules. Entire Outlook folders can be copied to SharePoint. Email message fields are instantly captured and users can set content types and custom metadata. Emails are saved as .msg files with unique names.

Folder Drag-and-Drop Complete folder structures can be copied from the desktop or between SharePoint document libraries with a simple “drag-and-drop.” The folders are created in SharePoint, files uploaded, and metadata values set on each file imported.

Attachments Replaced by Links The Contributor Add-In allows users to instantly upload attachments to SharePoint, replacing them with links.

Synchronization & Version Resolution Users can select specific libraries, folders, or lists for sync. Cached content is kept up-to-date with any automatic background sync. When online, modifications to content can immediately trigger synchronization. Configuration options can be set by individual users or locked by IT.
