The Muhimbi URL Shortener (MuSH) makes it easy to share long and complex web addresses via email, verbally over the phone and social media platforms such as Twitter by reducing the number of characters from hundreds to just a handful.


Shorten addresses directly from an item's context menu.


Although similar in functionality to publicly available services such as TinyURL and bit.ly, MuSH has specifically been designed with enterprises in mind by providing functionality such as:

  1. Tight integration with SharePoint.
     
  2. Compatible with all web based applications and intranets.
     
  3. Improved security by keeping all URLs within the boundaries of the company network.
     
  4. Generated URLs are case insensitive and ambiguous characters such as i, 1, I, l, 0, o and O are not used to make it easier to communicate the URLs verbally.
     

MuSH is a lightweight SharePoint Solution that runs on both WSS 3 and MOSS 2007. Download the free trial version and try it for yourself.

A flexible licensing model


Not all SharePoint environments are created equal. To keep our software affordable for small organisations with a single SharePoint Server, while still being able to provide support for larger organisations with dozens of SharePoint servers across multiple locations, the following license types are available.

  • Web Application Subscription: For use in all Site Collections in a single SharePoint Web Application.
  • Web Farm Subscription: For use in all Site Collections on a single SharePoint Farm.
  • Site Subscription: For use in all SharePoint Farms at a physical location.
  • OEM Subscription: For use in an unlimited number of physical locations.
  • OEM + Source code Subscription: For use in an unlimited number of physical locations and the right to access / modify the source code.

All licenses include 1 year of support during which all upgrades are free. The support contract can be renewed after this period expires. When the contract is not renewed you can continue to use any version that was released before the expiry of the subscription. The description in this section is just a summary, for full details see our Terms & Conditions as well as the Software License Agreement.
