SharePoint ShortUrl is the SharePoint solution that improves SharePoint by allowing the creation and use of vanity and shortcut hyperlinks fully integrated within the SharePoint environment. Developed and supported by CIRRUS SOFT LTD, SharePoint ShortUrl is used and trusted by many of the top companies worldwide.
SharePoint ShortUrl makes emailing links, putting them into documents or even saying the links over the phone much simpler and less error prone.
ShortUrl allows the creation and use of vanity and shortcut hyperlinks. Too often and especially with large complex installations, the structure of a SharePoint site collection can lead to enormously long hyperlinks, which makes for ugly and error prone hyperlinks.
For example, compare the following hyperlink to a folder in a document library:
https://yoursite/clients/abc%20company/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.a spx?RootFolder=%2fclients%2fabc%20company%2fShared%20Documents%2fClient%20 Requirements&FolderCTID=&View=%7b80C7 6B49%2dFA92%2d490E%2dAFBF%2d8A07F9C73 CCE%7d
When you use ShortUrl, it can also be: https://yoursite/ShortUrl
This makes emailing the link, putting it into documents or even saying it over the phone much simpler and less error prone.
A shortened hyperlink can be created directly from the items context menu in a standard Document Library and if one has already been created, you can instantly copy the shorter hyperlink to the clipboard.
All the shortcuts are stored in a regular SharePoint List which allows all the standard functionality of audit trails, workflow, security permissions, item approval and so on, to naturally dovetail with this new functionality.
