Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It offers a robust ecosystem of third-party integrations that can extend its functionality and enhance its value. It has improved its user interface and ease of use over the years, making it easier to create, share, and access content across sites and devices. It provides a high level of security and compliance features such as version control, retention policies, records management, legal holds, electronic discovery, and auditing. It supports multiple document libraries, lists, calendars, wikis, blogs, forums, surveys, and other types of content that can be customized and organized according to the needs of each team or project. It enables real-time collaboration and co-authoring of documents with internal or external users, as well as commenting and voting capabilities. It allows users to create workflows and automate business processes using Power Automate or other tools. It has a powerful search engine that can help users find relevant content on sites and documents, as well as customizable search capabilities for advanced users.
  • Microsoft SharePoint has the strategic ways of making the sharing of information straightforward and simplistic. Microsoft SharePoint delivers suitable ways of scanning the authorized information users. It integrates with numerous systems that deals with information.
  • Microsoft SharePoint is a strong and reliable storage and sharing solution, where organization and other business needs are well determined. More so, Microsoft SharePoint has the compatibility with different social programs. The security of the stored files is high and systematic.
  • This tool is great and is one that I currently utilize for collaboration with one of the nonprofits we serve.
  • MS SharePoint is a great tool for project team collaboration. You can easily create a project team home page to store and share relevant documents, announcements, progress reports, and team information like contact list and organization charts.

Cons

  • It can be expensive and complex to implement, configure, customize, and manage, especially for large or distributed organizations. May require experts or consultants to ensure proper use and adoption. You may have some errors or crashes while creating or editing SharePoint pages or documents, such as the inability to change the number of columns or insert images. It does not have a desktop or app version that can be used offline or separate from the browser. It would be helpful to have a separate option with more features that align with Microsoft Office. It can be difficult to keep things organized within SharePoint, especially when there are multiple sites or libraries with similar or overlapping content. It would be helpful to have more options for filtering, tagging, or grouping sites or content.
  • Microsoft SharePoint has the value for every communications transaction, and useful mechanisms are well outlined to suit the business use. Further, Microsoft SharePoint is a resourceful platform in making changes.
  • Microsoft SharePoint offers efficient access sharing procedures, and there is proper follow u in all business needs. However, Microsoft SharePoint is pricey, and there is a challenge in new subscriber having the tool.
  • It is challenging to collaborate with external individuals.
  • Ironically, like most Microsoft tools, MS SharePoint keeps gaining functionality which is great, but then sometimes the basic things get more complicated because there are so many options. An example is that sometimes functionality that I use most often get buried into a "menu" or "layer" or something moves to another location unexpectedly...especially since as a SaaS solution the change can happen overnight.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The main Pro is by far the way I can search and proactively get knowledge and training in my browser tab, without even leaving my tool where I'm working in. I didn't come across any tool that does that.

Cons

  • In our company we already had a lot of training material, It's not starting over, but it takes some time. But the ROI is already higher.
