 Q: How do I know if Popcorn is right for our organization?
A: If your organization:
• Uses Microsoft Office
• Has redundant and out-of-date files on individual and company systems
• Relies heavily on email or shared drives for document management
• Has trouble locating files and information
• Has stale data from across departments and systems not providing you with business intelligence
• Is forced to make decisions based on stale information
• Requires regular backing up of business data
• Is afflicted by manual and paper-based forms
• Setting up new employees is a time-consuming headache for your IT team
• Struggles to manage information as staff come and go
• Loses productivity because employees are tied to their desks (and hence, are not in the field) because that’s where their data is
• Needs to communicate more effectively within the company
• Needs to track and communicate with clients more effectively
• Wants to make the most of its SharePoint implementation
…Then Popcorn is right for you.

Q: How does Popcorn solution work?
A: Amazingly. We start by finding out what your high-level business needs are, and then provide you with a time estimate and price. Next, we help guide you through discovering your business requirements. We design, build, and test the solutions. Finally, we deploy the solution to you and train your end- or power-users on how to use, maintain, and grow their new solution. At each step, we confirm with you that you’re getting exactly what you want.
Q: Is training required after Popcorn has ‘popped’ in our office?
A: Yes. Training of end users enjoying Popcorn solutions is a key deliverable with every bag of Popcorn Technology that we install.
Q: How long does it take to install Popcorn in our office?
A: Depending on the size of your solution, Popcorn will typically deliver within a matter of one to three weeks. If projects are larger, Popcorn breaks them down into bite-sized pieces so that you can quickly evaluate and benefit from the solution and decide if you want to continue without being locked down.
Q: Does Popcorn replace the IT department in a company?
A: No. In fact, Popcorn will enhance the efforts of the IT department and help empower them with the ability to constantly improve your business rather than simply providing support.
Q: What impact will Popcorn have on the IT Department?
A: Better delivery of information, happier staff, more time to do the IT tasks they need to do to keep the machines running, and a focus on identifying business problems with SharePoint-centric solutions to improve ROI, efficiency, and productivity.
Q: Will the IT Department have to maintain anything?
A: They will only have to maintain their existing infrastructure and architecture at the time of implementation.
Q: Can Popcorn work with non-Microsoft legacy or proprietary systems?
A: Yes. Popcorn deploys SharePoint as a layer that will blanket the existing data stores for most OEM vendors.
Q: What if I have more questions?
A: Good! We invite you to ask questions. Please contact us about anything you'd like to know.
