Understand Purview’s critical shortcomings and limitations, with effective workaround strategies and methods. Learn how to deploy Purview safely to achieve genuine recordkeeping compliance. This course is not a hands-on product training experience. Nor is it a Webinar-like stream of “What Purview can do”. Instead, you’ll learn how to translate its language to real-world records management, what works well and not so well, what to avoid, practical workarounds for serious limitations, and how to achieve, then prove, genuine recordkeeping compliance. This course is designed and delivered by Bruce Miller, author, educator, independent consultant, leading expert in electronic recordkeeping, and author of “Managing Records in Microsoft SharePoint”. He has no stake in Purview sales or services, and calls it as he sees it. Bruce will navigate you through the complexities of Purview in simple, understandable recordkeeping terms you can relate to.
