SDE 1 at a educational organization with 501-1,000 employees
Centralized document governance has boosted collaboration and made knowledge sharing structured
SharePoint is a powerful platform, but there are a few areas where I think it could be improved, such as user experience. For new users, the interface and navigation can feel quite complex, specifically when working with multiple sites and document libraries. Another improvement would be search functionalities. While it is good sometimes, it does not always return the most relevant result unless a document is very well-structured and tagged. Also, initial setup and customizations can be time-consuming and may require technical expertise, specifically when configuring workflows or permissions. From a modern development perspective, tighter and more seamless integrations with tools including Power Automate and better support for custom backend integrations through APIs could make it more efficient. Overall, simplifying usability and enhancing search and integration capability would make SharePoint even stronger. One additional area I would appreciate improvement would be performance and responsiveness, especially when dealing with a large document library. Sometimes loading or navigating through large datasets can feel quite slow. Another aspect is permissions management. While it is very powerful, it can become complex to manage at scale, specifically when there are multiple levels of access across teams and projects. Improving developer experience would also be beneficial. Making customization, API integrations, and extensions more straightforward would help teams, especially backend developers, leverage SharePoint more efficiently.

Has saved time during website building and helps maintain a professional look
The mobile view needs to be fixed when reviewing on the desktop to show what it actually displays on the phone. There were a couple of small bugs which I think they fixed. Sometimes when dragging and dropping things into place, they would snap into place, and then after saving and checking the live page, it would not quite match what was showing in the website builder. I would have to go back in and move it to the right and then snap it back for it to work. Sometimes doing exactly the same thing when building requires one or two attempts to get it to reflect what you want to see on the live page.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It keeps our company organized and everything is in one place."
"The online editing capabilities, file sharing, auditing, information security, ease of solution management, and the easy user adaptation to the platform are the most valuable features."
"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."
"The ability to assign an attribute to a library artifact allows the site owner to create the appropriate views based on artifact attributes (category, owner, etc.)."
"For SharePoint, I believe the most valuable feature is the customization and allowing you to share and edit files and documents. Being able to share externally and the precise administration of the files in terms of giving permissions and controlling who has access to what is a very good feature."
"Co-editing of documents enables teams to work on the same document and the work gets done faster."
"SharePoint's collaborative features are valuable as they enable productivity by allowing multiple users to edit documents simultaneously."
"An additional thought I would share is that SharePoint is a very capable and reliable platform for organizations looking to improve their collaborations and document management."
"The return on investment with Wix is excellent because hosting a website costs around 4,000 to 5,000 Indian Rupees, equivalent to $50 a year, I have access to all tools and functionalities, and I can generate as much sales as I want through Wix."
"Basic features can be grasped in a couple of hours because it's CMS-based with all tools readily available."
"Wix has actually reduced my time in developing or delivering a website to the client, so I can have more clients in the pipeline."
"I found everything okay in Wix, and it's easy to create a website."
"I like the solution's responsiveness, usability, and user interface."
"The biggest advantages are that it is inexpensive and very easy to use, which means I can spend less time building the website and more time working."
 

Cons

"For the most part, the tool is useable, but there are many end users who still find it difficult overall."
"I would like to see improvements in the interface."
"The product could be improved in a lot of way. It is so frustrating to get things to work as advertised."
"Search can be improved a lot because we are always trying to compare it with Google Search."
"The limitations and boundaries must be extended."
"You still need a bit of expertise to add branding."
"Too many versions being released in a short time period. Too much time being devoted to migration planning."
"For new users, the interface and navigation can feel quite complex, specifically when working with multiple sites and document libraries."
"When it comes to drag and drop, it sometimes creates problems when the size is not compatible."
"Wix is quite slow. When I use Wix, it's a bit slower than Shopify."
"The Wix editor can sometimes be glitched or buggy and requires a significant amount of memory on my computer."
"Wix has drawbacks regarding website optimization and speed."
"There are a few bugs where what it says it will show on the phone versus the laptop does not always match."
"The solution’s scalability can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing model for SharePoint Online is based on per user, and it is monthly. The price of the solution overall is good."
"It is very expensive.​"
"For this type of solution, it is not wise to buy it without Software Assurance."
"SharePoint is included with our Microsoft license."
"It is pretty reasonable. It is $5 per month per user. We have 12 users now, so it is about $60 per month."
"The data classification and search elements are cheap."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"We have purchased add-ons to handle multiple site collections, form creation, and design."
"Wix is an affordable solution."
