Kintivo News
Any business using SharePoint now has an option for collecting data from virtually anywhere and saving it to SharePoint.
Reston, VA — March 15, 2017 — The innovators of Kintivo Forms for SharePoint has done it again with a new edition that allows forms to be used virtually anywhere and still save form submissions directly to SharePoint, including SharePoint Online.
Kintivo’s latest SharePoint forms solution, “Kintivo Forms Anywhere for SharePoint” follows closely in the footsteps of its bigger brother “Kintivo Forms for SharePoint” product with a very distinctive difference: Forms can be used anywhere.
This new technology is being offered as a subscription and requires absolutely nothing to be installed on your SharePoint environment. Kintivo aims to help companies using SharePoint to integrate with any web platform.
What’s particularly interesting about this technology is the way it integrates a SharePoint List with virtually any website or platform.
Kintivo Forms Anywhere promises the following:
- Display forms anywhere and save data into SharePoint
- Professional looking and mobile friendly forms
- Intuitive form building experience
Business users are now free to integrate their external websites with their SharePoint investment.
Most companies have websites that are not based on the SharePoint platform. It makes sense to have the ability to save form submissions to SharePoint from external websites. Kintivo Forms Anywhere delivers this while keeping the form building and management experience elegant and straight-forward.
“We wanted companies using SharePoint to be able to use forms anywhere and post data to SharePoint, and we wanted it to generate handsome forms” said Sean Bordner, CEO of Kintivo.
Kintivo Forms Anywhere is available now as free 30 day subscription on Kintivo.com.
Kintivo Forms Anywhere works with SharePoint 2010, SharePoint 2013, SharePoint 2016, and SharePoint Online. Learn more about building SharePoint forms using Kintivo Forms Anywhere on Kintivo.com.

Introducing: 
Our brand is changing! After 4 years, we’ve evolved, offering more than just SharePoint® based products and solutions. And we’re thrilled to have you grow with us!
To make things easier for our customers we are consolidating into one brand: Kintivo [pronounced: kin (as in “next of kin”) tivo (as in “I can fast forward past commercials on my tivo”)].
Until recently, we only offered Microsoft SharePoint® based products and services, adding Office 365® and Azure® in just the last year. In the near future, we’re extending our brand to include even more options and benefits.
That’s why I’m writing you today. We’ve outgrown our name and our singular product offering.
We are retiring the “SharePoint®AMS” brand.
And our new brand, Kintivo® is taking its place.
TopSharePoint.com is a popular tech weblog that provides tutorials, news, reviews and analysis, covering topics related to SharePoint® technology.
TopSharePoint.com is a showcase gallery that features top quality, creative and unique SharePoint-based websites from around the world. They carefully select SharePoint® websites based on their usability, design, creativity and ability to incorporate modern techniques.
“With over 135 million licenses of SharePoint® sold worldwide no wonder why SharePoint® is the fastest-growing product in the history of Microsoft! On top of this amazing record, SharePoint® is listed by Forrester Research as the number 1 portal product. The new version of SharePoint® delivers not only great Intranet/Extranet platforms but also great platforms for building robust and reliable Internet facing websites.”
“Siri, call a person from our SharePoint ®List”
A new service synchronizes SharePoint® list data with smartphone contacts. The service does not require an app and utilizes native CardDAV standards to achieve interoperability across all major smartphone platforms including iPhone and Android devices.
We want our customers to leverage their native smartphone capabilities to quickly [and safely if they are driving] locate and communicate with others ”
While issuing voice commands to a smartphone is not new, contact lists have largely been specific to the smartphone owner. “Business contacts which happen to exist on a person’s smartphone often exist in a silo and are frequently out-of-sync with the actual contact information.”
Using this new service with your centralized SharePoint® list provides the ability to synchronize a specific list view with your smartphone. SharePoint® login information is stored on the subscribers’ device only.
Subscribers to the service can map fields between their SharePoint® list and contacts found on their smartphone; such as First and Last Name, Mobile Number, Work Number, Email, etc. Once setup is complete, the contacts simply appear on the smartphone and remain synchronized with the most current information from the SharePoint® list.
We’re constantly trying to help our customers manage their businesses more efficiently. Many of our customers already have one or more SharePoint® lists with contact information for customers, or project team members, vendors, members, or donors – basically it’s just contact information sitting in a SharePoint® list. This information is already kept up to date as part of their day-to-day business processes – why not make it highly usable in this mobile world ”

This week the powerful eCommerce engine by Kintivo® achieved online sales tax level certification from Avalara, Inc.(www.avalara.com), the global leader in online sales tax calculation and compliance automation.

This eliminates the tedious work and complexity of calculating taxes across multiple jurisdictions and helps businesses focus on their core offering.
