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.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"This is a very complete and powerful solution."
"We can now share to team members by MS Teams and assign planners to follow and update statuses in a single platform."
"Tech support tops off as excellent."
"The most valuable features are the Integrations, web site, and search."
"The most valuable features of SharePoint Online are content management, document management, and approval processes. Additionally, there are a number of features that provide integration with multiple Office services and external services."
"It allows for simultaneous users to be on it."
"Ability to store files of any type."
"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."
"It has helped us with storing all the documents, which means that people are not going to intervene. There is a way of extracting knowledge within documentation and tracking it. There are knowledge assets for where documentation is stored, indexed and searchable through SharePoint."
 

Cons

"We would like to see more features for RPA and AI."
"Replication needs improvement."
"Workflow is something that can become more intelligent."
"It has worked very well for me. It seems like they've improved everything. I don't have any cons about it as such, but I don't think they have a talk-to-text, speech-to-text, or speech-to-type. That would be cool for accessibility."
"​Improve the user-friendliness."
"The initial setup was very complex."
"This solution would benefit from the implementation of enhanced online forms and template development capabilities."
"SharePoint Online could improve the user interface and when modifying any of the user interfaces can be challenging. Additionally, there are challenges with the detail in the analytics user interface and the overall customization could improve."
"The solution lacks collaboration features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is very expensive.​"
"It is pretty reasonable. It is $5 per month per user. We have 12 users now, so it is about $60 per month."
"They are about an eight in comparison to other similar products."
"We have purchased add-ons to handle multiple site collections, form creation, and design."
"The platform has medium pricing."
"As usual, Microsoft’s licensing structures don’t really seem to fit the needs of their products. This leads to always paying for a project you will never use fully or always be adding to."
"The pricing is competitive."
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."

Jive vs Sharepoint vs Drupal Commons
At Mediacurrent we often get requests to compare Drupal to other platforms used for intranet sites and social business platforms (like https://dev.twitter.com/ for example). This is often referred to as “Social Business Software”, which has grown in popularity in recent years. I decided to do a…
