How can it help me and my business?

The Lightning Conductor can help three categories of users:

1. End Users – End Users will be able to find information more easily as it is rolled up and displayed along with conditional formatting, highlighting key data that is important to them or their role.
   
   
2. SharePoint Power Users – SharePoint Power Users can build the views of content that the end users require easily, and without the requirement of IT getting involved. Multiple columns, sorting and filtering, data formatting, and grouping etc can all be performed by any user with Design permissions.
   
   
3. Developers – With legacy rollup tools, XSLT views or Display Templates were required in order to display the columns that the users want to see. This requires writing code to the users requirements, and then of course maintenance of that code. The Lightning Conductor enables business users to flexibly build their own views within the need for coding.

The Lightning Conductor could potentially save your business vast amounts of wasted time and therefore money. According to Gartner Group surveys, business users waste up to 20% of their work time trying to find information. If the information cannot be found, it is often duplicated. 20% of your business users pay could equate to hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. The Lightning Conductor helps your users to find that content more easily. Therefore, if just 2% of the employees’ wasted time was saved, how would your company benefit?
