Featured Reviews

AnjneyBhardwaj - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Versatile, user-friendly, and allows websites to grow seamlessly with increasing traffic
In my 15 years of experience with WordPress, one improvement I would suggest is addressing the challenge of testing plugins. While there are thousands available, many free versions are not fully functional. Access to fully functional commercial plugins often requires purchasing with dollars, which can be challenging for users facing financial constraints or difficulties obtaining foreign currency. Simplifying the process of testing and providing feedback on commercial plugins could enhance the overall user experience in future releases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Document flows, storage, and numbering take off the actions for checking and assigning the numbering and running around with approvals and pre-approvals."
"Its functionality is enormous."
"Information is much more readily available."
"Quantity and variety of partners with solution development ability on the platform."
"This solution has helped us with the categorization, organization, management, discovery, and delivery of program and project related information."
"We can now share to team members by MS Teams and assign planners to follow and update statuses in a single platform."
"What I like about SharePoint is that they keep up with a lot of updates, and they bring out new features. I also like that the system is integrated with the Microsoft 365 suite of apps."
"We can arrange all our documents on one platform and see the document's changes and edits."
"The most valuable features of WordPress by AMIMOTO are its optimized performance, scalability, and stability."
 

Cons

"There's room for improvement in the search functionality, although it has matured significantly over the years."
"One issue is that when users mistakenly hide files or set permissions incorrectly, it can lead to files becoming inaccessible, requiring intervention from Microsoft support to resolve."
"Replication needs improvement."
"It would be nice if the editing and setting up of SharePoint were more user-friendly, so I do not have to have an expert to deal with it."
"The initial setup is complex and has room for improvement."
"We do sell Hyland OnBase, which is probably a competitor to SharePoint and does a lot more. In our own organization, we haven't had a need for it, but certainly, for our customers, we are finding that to be a better fit. In terms of the technical reasons for that, I'm not involved much on that side, so I can't give specifics, but there is certainly room for them to improve or add on certain features that clearly are not available in SharePoint, but they are available in Hyland OnBase."
"SharePoint is not always intuitive to use and can be overwhelming for non-tech-savvy users."
"It is not really better; we use the same solution as before with Google Drive and the Google App solution."
"One improvement I would suggest is addressing the challenge of testing plugins."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is expensive, but worthwhile."
"It comes bundled with the Microsoft 365 pricing plans."
"We have purchased add-ons to handle multiple site collections, form creation, and design."
"It is very expensive.​"
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"Any extended support from Microsoft is expensive."
"It is pretty reasonable. It is $5 per month per user. We have 12 users now, so it is about $60 per month."
"The product is reasonably priced."

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…
