The most valuable feature is the ability to create team spaces. Many users have requested a live-edit option for documents.
With many team members all around the world in different time zones, we found that working together in a structured space, rather than over email, was less chaotic. We also found that the information was better documented and organized in Igloo. To be specific: Many users have requested that Igloo implement a live-edit option for documents, such as Google Docs. This would improve the product because for now one has the option to reserve a document, edit it, and then upload an updated version meaning other team members have to wait for one person to be done before adding their contribution. If there were such a feature it would allow for more immediate direct collaboration between members of the community. However, Igloo keeps track of previous versions of the document so this feature is useful as well to see how collaboration progresses between team members.

Collaborative work benefits while user-friendliness challenges persist
The most valuable feature of SharePoint is its user interface, which is very easy to use. I do not have to be very technical to use it. Its rights management capabilities and ability to restrict access to certain people are also very useful. Furthermore, I can access SharePoint from any device, whether it is a phone or laptop, which is very convenient.

What needs improvement with SharePoint?
Not with SharePoint specifically, but overall with the software or tools from Microsoft, I think there are areas that need improvement. It's very difficult to understand the objective. There are so...
