Sharing information improves collaboration but search capability needs enhancement
Searching information internally in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server could be better because when we get a lot of information, it is difficult to find. There are other things that could be better, though I don't know specifically what besides search. Search is the main problem, but it could be better if we used software used by other people. Sometimes we have customers who don't use it, and that creates problems.

"We use Huddle to store important team files, and with a dispersed team, we set permissions on files that are relevant to each team, helping us keep files up to date and streamline projects."
"Document management and records management features are the most valuable."
"The most valuable features for us are their document management list and hybrid forms. and We also use third party ad-dons to achieve workflows and other recent apps."
"It's a very robust product."
"The solution's most valuable aspects are its collaboration capabilities, its communications site and the innovation within the product itself."
"Microsoft Office SharePoint Server helps with return on investment as it saves a lot of time and helps clients improve their processes."
"The most valuable feature is the "Alert Me", which provides the ability to set an alert when content is either added or changed and that the alerts can be either real-time or aggregated for the day or the week."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the Communication Site."
"Ability to collaborate with others in one location."
 

Cons

"I think the navigation from project to project could be improved, but other than that, nothing I would add."
"Searching information internally in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server could be better because when we get a lot of information, it is difficult to find."
"The document management features of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server are not very good compared to OneDrive."
"The solution needs to enable better sharing capabilities between users and external users. Several users also have problems with linking their emails to their Microsoft account."
"The GUI is outdated."
"However, with time, they raise the price until it becomes somewhat expensive for us."
"The solution requires a lot of hardware capacity for high availability and performance."
"I think that it can be improved in terms of security, to manage roles and better performance."
"One of the reasons why we don't recommend the cloud version of SharePoint is the cost."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Pricing plans may be flexible depending on volume usage and your corporate relationship with Microsoft."
"It can be expensive for on-premises deployments, especially when you have to support SQL Server as your backend database. That's where the cost comes into play. SQL Server has its own licensing, which Microsoft keeps on changing. Therefore, it can become costly. In the earlier versions of SharePoint, version 2007 or 2010, they had an express version where the SQL Server licensing was free. It wasn't like a full-blown SharePoint. It was only a slimmed-down version. It used to be whatever your hardware costs. You would install the free software and work with it, but you were very limited in what you could do in SharePoint. If you wanted the SharePoint Enterprise Server with all the bells and whistles, then you had to pay more to get the SQL Server license based on the number of users or servers. The subscription model is different for cloud deployments. Licensing is per user and per month. The cost also depends on the storage required. If you have a lot of sites or documents, then you need to expand it based on your needs."
"One of the reasons why we don't recommend the cloud version of SharePoint is the cost. With the on premise version, you pay for the license once. For the cloud version, there is a recurring fee. It is very expensive. They expect everyone to pay $20 or $30 per user per month."
"There are some aggressive discounts offered by Microsoft for organizations that are not for profit, which we are, and it makes it quite attractive to consider."
