Common Questions About This Finance Team Site
What is this finance team site built with?
The site is built entirely with standard SharePoint web parts – Banner, Countdown Timer, Editorial, News, People, Quick Links, and Text – combined with a custom theme and custom fonts for a polished, professional look. There is no custom code and no third-party tools anywhere on the site. This is the kind of clean, maintainable team site Greg Zelfond builds for finance and accounting departments.
What’s included on the finance team site?
The homepage features a countdown timer tracking financial deadlines, closing periods, and reporting milestones, a focus of the month section highlighting key priorities, a team members section with finance staff roles and contact details, quick links to ERP systems, accounting tools, and vendor portals, and a news section for financial updates and policy announcements. Because it is a private team site, everything is visible to finance personnel only.
Does this design use any custom code or third-party tools?
No. Everything you see is built with out-of-the-box SharePoint – no custom code, no third-party add-ons. That matters because out-of-the-box sites are stable, secure, and easy to maintain, and nothing breaks when Microsoft rolls out updates. Out-of-the-box is the only way Greg Zelfond builds, which keeps the site dependable for years without ongoing developer costs.
Can this design be customized for our finance team?
Absolutely. The colors, fonts, logo, and section layout are all tailored to your organization’s brand, and the content adapts to the way your finance team works. Greg adapts the quick links to the ERP, accounting, and reporting systems your team actually uses, points the countdown timer at your real closing and filing deadlines, and shapes the focus of the month around your reporting cycle.
What is the difference between this team site and a finance department landing page?
A department landing page is built for the whole organization – it is where employees go to find finance policies, forms, and contacts. This team site is the opposite: a private workspace just for the finance team itself, where staff collaborate on deadlines, priorities, and internal news away from the employee-facing intranet. Many organizations Greg works with end up with both, each serving a different audience.
Can Greg build this finance team site for our organization?
Yes – this is exactly the kind of work Greg Zelfond does. As an independent SharePoint consultant and Microsoft MVP, he designs and builds out-of-the-box team sites like this one for finance and accounting teams, tailored to your brand, your tools, and the way your team works.
