Built-in integrations increase efficiency but cluster support requires improvement
On the ITM side, there are conflicts, particularly on the convergence side, where it does not support cluster environments. Multiple instances need to be set up and configured. In the cloud environment, improvements are ongoing. The fallback and benefit assessment of the product suggest a need for a rating of seven or eight.

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

"The reliability of the system is significant, creating a lot of trust among our customers."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"It's a comprehensive solution for managing documents within our organization's management framework."
"There are competitors out there, but there's a lot that Oracle Cloud offers outside of giving you just a basic database or basic infrastructure-as-a-service that add a lot of value to it."
"The complete granularity of being able to apply permissions at collection, site, library, list, folder, and doc set levels give ultimate flexibility."
"Using the workflow as an example, it has helped to transform the conventional paperwork processes into digitized and faster processes."
"It helped us manage our documents and records effectively and at a reasonable cost."
"SharePoint enabled the staff to share documents and work on a document simultaneously."
"The workflow feature is valuable because it enables us to cascade responsibilities."
"Valuable features in this product are: Easy customization with MS .NET and related tools, stability, performance in a medium size environment (100-200 users), and full support by MS."
"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."
"No code and low code, scalable, and stable collaboration platform. Straightforward to set up. Its support system is good and offers fast issue resolution."
 

Cons

"On the ITM side, there are conflicts, particularly on the convergence side, where it does not support cluster environments."
"The only issue my company has with the tool is the licensing part, which is expensive."
"I would like to see faster turnaround for provisioning new services."
"Oracle Content Management poses complexities in initial implementation and configuration."
"The technical support level is practically nil."
"We had some small issues and called MS tech support, but they were only able to help us 60% of the time before we fixed it ourselves."
"It is not very intuitive to most users."
"There's room for improvement in the search functionality, although it has matured significantly over the years."
"Stability, even after deployment three months ago, still seems to be an issue."
"I would like a simpler, more cost-effective solution for connecting data sources with workflows and BI tools, or data mining tools."
"I would like it to be more compliant with global regulations. There are certain features which could be included that currently are not there, such as compliance and record management capabilities."
"​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.​"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's licensing part is expensive."
"We have purchased add-ons to handle multiple site collections, form creation, and design."
"They are about an eight in comparison to other similar products."
"The cost is expensive, but worthwhile."
"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."
"Any extended support from Microsoft is expensive."
"SharePoint is included with our Microsoft license."
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"It comes bundled with the Microsoft 365 pricing plans."

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…
