"The speed in which you can take a CMS and make it a full-blown shopping cart with analytics tracking, SEO, user accounts, security, and ease of use through a robust framework of modules and plugins to enhance and promote-related content is about as turnkey as it gets with Joomla."
"Its configuration management ability is critical for document-based systems."
"It has an easy to distribute administration capability, and can also scale to meet a large number of future needs."
"Quantity and variety of partners with solution development ability on the platform."
"It allows for simultaneous users to be on it."
"It offers an easy way to store unstructured content (.pdf, .doc, .xls, images) and to tag them with metadata."
"The ability to take Excel files and make them dynamic SharePoint lists with instant reporting capabilities has been a major benefit."
"It's stable. It's very widely used by companies. Also, the knowledge of the product has improved over the years, and by other companies that support it or are Microsoft SharePoint partners. So if there are problems, there's always a user or company that knows the information or can help you; even with very uncommon problems."
"The ability to have version control and co-editing is vital to our workflows."
"I would like to see the same sorting and attributes available through the web browser on the JED (sorting by free or commercial license, sort by rating, popularity, etc.) within the back-end Joomla Web Installer when browsing extensions."
"I would like to see more back-end admin power pulled into the front-end, therefore the admins will not have to use the back-end as much, especially for the menu manager, user manager, etc. versus using third-party extensions to achieve this."
"The integration with Outlook could be improved."
"The product must provide more automation."
"It does not integrate despite being part of the Microsoft family."
"SharePoint sometimes cannot handle the amount of co-editing that we do."
"It is too heavy. MS should not have paid foreign coders dollars per each row of code. They wasted the stability and reliability in the end."
"SharePoint designer workflows can be buggy sometimes without any apparent reason."
"We would like more security features, like automating."
"Make it more intuitive."
