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.

Integration of diverse AI functions and adaptable features provides efficient operational solutions
From a client's perspective, I encounter several challenges when implementing new systems, and in my last role, they faced significant issues with their previous software. After assessing their situation, it was clear that continuing on their current path would lead to excessive costs. Recognizing that Sharepoint 2016 Standard could fulfill their needs efficiently, I engaged my team, and after seven months, we had a fully operational system in place. As a project manager, I design what I need from AI within Sharepoint 2016 Standard, knowing I always get good results. While the technical details may not be my forte, I have a network of strong experts working alongside me, making sure our processes succeed according to the plans I put in place.
