Improving data accessibility and security through enhanced interface design
In my current role, we use Mobius to capture data. We are partnered with the government, and the Mobius app is used to ensure accurate data capture. We use it alongside Salesforce to document our clients' entire process as they go through programs, capturing details of their work journey Mobius…

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

"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
"Archiving is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"This solution has improved our organization by providing a central repository for business data with control over sensitive data."
"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
"It provides a single pane of glass for delivering content from multiple repositories. It is also highly recommended because of the ease of use when it comes to searching and retrieving from multiple repositories simultaneously."
"SharePoint has made things easier with the increased functionality for building the portals, microsites, and total integration with Microsoft categories."
"For a medium to large scale business, it is excellent."
"SharePoint has an option where you can open files on the browser, whereby more than five people can make amendments to one Excel online file."
"SharePoint is the ideal platform in the collaboration scenario where it is quite easy to set up document repositories with appropriate permissions with just a few mouse clicks."
"The ability to assign an attribute to a library artifact allows the site owner to create the appropriate views based on artifact attributes (category, owner, etc.)."
"SharePoint enabled the staff to share documents and work on a document simultaneously."
"OneDrive and SharePoint provide a secure, fully auditable way of storing information."
"It is very stable."
 

Cons

"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."
"The setup and the support could be improved when it comes to populating the reports from a mainframe environment."
"When the new version is available, the vendor should make it easier for upgrading this product."
"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."
"Sales and service need to be more consistent."
"The problem is IT departments that don't understand the solution start in the wrong direction, which can lead to reinstalls and other interruptions because of the initial configuration."
"For example, if you installed SharePoint on a virtual machine with dynamic memory, it could destroy the farm without any possibility of repairing it."
"​The support is the worst. It is bad when Microsoft support does not even know what to do and you have to tell them. Also, they take too long to solve a problem.​"
"Office 365 SharePoint is a powerful and great tool, as long as your libraries’ content is limited in terms of the number of files. For huge data uploads, limitation problems will start popping up."
"Due to the flexibility and power of the product, out of the box it can be daunting to use."
"Document management and the ability to easily integrate single sign-on (SSO) are areas for improvement in SharePoint."
"The introduction of AI and automation with Copilot could be a beneficial improvement."
"Stability, even after deployment three months ago, still seems to be an issue."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."
"For this type of solution, it is not wise to buy it without Software Assurance."
"The pricing works for us."
"The platform has medium pricing."
"We have purchased add-ons to handle multiple site collections, form creation, and design."
"It is very expensive.​"
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"The data classification and search elements are cheap."
"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."

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…
