Secure collaboration has improved as I create and host protected web assets for my team
It is a little difficult to name the areas for improvements in SharePoint because I don't use it all that much. I know I can host pages on it and feel that the CMS platform, which helps create those pages, can be improved. The interface is not all that great, but other than that, there's not much to say because it's a pretty simple tool and I don't have high expectations for it to improve. The main issue bothering me today is the Content Management System, which is basically the interface through which I can create the landing page. The design and the way to incorporate things could be better because there are better content management platforms available right now. Even newer platforms like WordPress are better, so I think SharePoint can improve on that.

What needs improvement with SharePoint?
I don't know how SharePoint can be improved because it works effectively, so I can't think of any improvement. It exists in the background, similar to Windows, where you don't think about it, but i...
