Pros
"The most valuable feature is being able to export to Microsoft Project."

More Mindjet MindManager Pros →

"SharePoint has made things easier with the increased functionality for building the portals, microsites, and total integration with Microsoft categories.""Our staff found it simpler, as they did not have to work within a classification system.""Its configuration management ability is critical for document-based systems.""Document flows, storage, and numbering take off the actions for checking and assigning the numbering and running around with approvals and pre-approvals.""Tech support tops off as excellent.""It has good integration with other MS products.""The metadata services, the WCF service integration and the Voxel feature are three most valuable elements of this solution.""I do like the collaboration around documents. The versioning history has proven useful in some instances as well."

Cons
"Since I have been using such an old version, most of the improvements have already been made, but I would suggest moving forward with the times and creating a cloud-based solution for universal access."

More Mindjet MindManager Cons →

"We'd like to be able to upload from MS Excel to deploy tasks and use drop-down lists to collect further information.""Document management and the ability to easily integrate single sign-on (SSO) are areas for improvement in SharePoint.""We do sell Hyland OnBase, which is probably a competitor to SharePoint and does a lot more. In our own organization, we haven't had a need for it, but certainly, for our customers, we are finding that to be a better fit. In terms of the technical reasons for that, I'm not involved much on that side, so I can't give specifics, but there is certainly room for them to improve or add on certain features that clearly are not available in SharePoint, but they are available in Hyland OnBase.""No good process to import emails from several users into a single comprehensive SP repository.""The limitations and boundaries must be extended.""SharePoint designer workflows can be buggy sometimes without any apparent reason.""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 product must provide more automation."

    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 round-up of a couple of the more well known platforms and compare their products to Drupal. In this roundup we will be comparing Jive, Sharepoint and Drupal Commons. Drupal Commons is a popular distribution created by Acquia to compete with some of these other proprietary platforms. There are many other options out there, commercial and otherwise, to compare with Drupal but I want to focus on Jive and Sharepoint for a couple of reasons. I chose Jive because it is one of the leading competitors in this space in respect to market share. Next, I chose Sharepoint because I have some history with Sharepoint. This experience dates back to when I built www.adhe.edu with Sharepoint 2007 a few years ago. I subsequently wrote this blog entry about my experience shortly after joining Mediacurrent. This roundup will also act as a refresher for those who read my original “Drupal vs. Sharepoint” blog. Yammer, which was recently bought by Microsoft and is the tool we currently use for office communication will also get some mentions throughout this article. As I went through and tested each of these tools I used three main criteria in my evaluation Cost Ability to Customize Overall features… Read more →
