Collaboration has improved through simplified document access and controlled sharing
SharePoint is definitely used to keep a record of our files and data. The capability is quite good because it is time-saving. I have used it only four or five times, but it has been very helpful to keep all my information in a consolidated manner. The search feature is one of the most beneficial factors that we use to filter out the latest data or the latest file as per our convenience and use case. When you have a large repository, this feature is particularly valuable. Role-based access control has been helpful while developing the knowledge platform. The roles were defined clearly, which made it easy for the four or five of us to work simultaneously and collaborate on our project in a similar manner.

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."
"The ability to quickly and easily create team sites has been great."
"It helped us manage our documents and records effectively and at a reasonable cost."
"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."
"My advice is to not hesitate; just plunge in and implement SharePoint."
"SharePoint is better than Google Pages due to the maturity of the content I can create, the way I can store assets, and the way I can consume them."
"It allowed us to be more productive in terms of being more organized."
"Its configuration management ability is critical for document-based systems."
"Easy management of content and portal and the document repository features are a distinguishing point compared to a file server."
 

Cons

"We would like to see more features for RPA and AI."
"There are some limitations on storage."
"Microsoft support could be better, especially for enterprise troubleshooting. They require a lot of logs and often rely on online support, which does not meet customer expectations."
"Achieving our goals in a multi-vendor project was not an easy task because of the 2010 UI."
"Too many versions being released in a short time period. Too much time being devoted to migration planning."
"The user profile synchronization feature is cumbersome to configure and at least initially had some stability issues."
"Migrating SharePoint sites can be a cumbersome process and it usually results in the incomplete migration of SharePoint sites and data."
"Administration is still very complex."
"Well, for SharePoint Online, the add-on features which are free tend to expire within a month or earlier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"They are about an eight in comparison to other similar products."
"SharePoint is included with our Microsoft license."
"The licensing model for SharePoint Online is based on per user, and it is monthly. The price of the solution overall is good."
"The pricing is competitive."
"It is pretty reasonable. It is $5 per month per user. We have 12 users now, so it is about $60 per month."
"The pricing is competitive."
"The data classification and search elements are cheap."
"Licensing can be by server or by seat."

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…
