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…

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

"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."
"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."
"The most valuable features of SharePoint include the ability to co-edit documents in the Office suite, particularly Excel and Word."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of SharePoint is its ease of use."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is file sharing or information sharing."
"Removed the need of paper storage and people flow into the office."
"The workflow feature is valuable because it enables us to cascade responsibilities."
"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."
"Its functionality is enormous."
 

Cons

"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."
"Sales and service need to be more consistent."
"The setup and the support could be improved when it comes to populating the reports from a mainframe environment."
"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."
"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."
"The management of the product/back-end is complex."
"It will fully use your system resources."
"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 could be improved in a lot of way. It is so frustrating to get things to work as advertised."
"I would like a simpler, more cost-effective solution for connecting data sources with workflows and BI tools, or data mining tools."
"The introduction of AI and automation with Copilot could be a beneficial improvement."
"The initial setup is complex and has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."
"It is pretty reasonable. It is $5 per month per user. We have 12 users now, so it is about $60 per month."
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"The pricing works for us."
"It is very expensive.​"
"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 data classification and search elements are cheap."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"The pricing is competitive."
