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…

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."
"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."
"SharePoint has made things easier with the increased functionality for building the portals, microsites, and total integration with Microsoft categories."
"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."
"SharePoint is smooth and easy to use for editing, updating, and uploading files."
"The most valuable features are the collaboration and sharing."
"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."
"Tech support tops off as excellent."
"SharePoint manages version control, which makes it easier to track and amend documentation accurately, maintaining document integrity and enabling quick recovery if necessary."
"There is not just one valuable feature; it is all of them working together."
 

Cons

"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."
"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"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."
"Sales and service need to be more consistent."
"The company also needs to make sure that their policies are dictating how information is stored and used, instead of letting SharePoint take control."
"The integration with Outlook could be improved."
"We'd like to be able to upload from MS Excel to deploy tasks and use drop-down lists to collect further information."
"Search can be improved a lot because we are always trying to compare it with Google Search. Beyond that, it would be helpful to tag the documents."
"Document management and the ability to easily integrate single sign-on (SSO) are areas for improvement in SharePoint."
"Needs improvement on the user interface."
"The workflow engine cannot support the business needs."
"There are some limitations on storage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."

"The solution's pricing is relatively expensive because it's bundled with other products."
"Licensing can be by server or by seat."
"The cost is expensive, but worthwhile."
"It is very expensive.​"
