What do you guys think about SharePoint 2010 including both Server and Foundation? I have been working with SharePoint Foundation 2010 and just can't believe how much you can do with it.

I have done lot of custom WebParts work which is nothing but ASP.NET controls and use SharePoint and AD to manage users permissions roles and share and distribute documents. In Resource management project it was a combination of SharePoint ASP.NET Crystal Reports Project Server etc. I have used Sites and related features. But now started using new features in VS 2010 including blogs forums comments on contents and so on.

That's interesting! I have seen it being used mainly for Intranets or External websites for companies (CMS functionality) and also in many places for document management. Some places had an intresting use of document properties. web parts (employee search etc) workflows (approval mainly) What features have you used - any new features? Curious to hear!

the capabilities are amazing and the scalability is mind-blowing! considering all the buzz i hope most organizations can avoid the 'sharepoint-for-everything' mentality and leverage the full power in appopriate solutions. friends what are you all using SharePoint for?
