Featured Reviews

AnjneyBhardwaj - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Market Research Analyst at IDC Corporate
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 access control is definitely a good feature. We also appreciate the improvements they've made to the online applications, where multiple users can work on the same documents simultaneously. Everything syncs automatically."
"A central repository for artifacts, and planning for corporate projects."
"It has improved our productivity to a great extent with its great collaboration features."
"From my perspective as a developer I would say that the most valuable features are the wide variety of data source connections, completeness of features, and strong query possibilities (customisation, SQL, MDX, macros)."
"When properly implemented and users are adequately trained, SharePoint can take the place of network file shares for most types of use cases."
"Feedback workflows ensure we don't miss someone when documents need reviewing and approval workflows make sure the right people are approving it, especially when there are new or temporary staff involved."
"This solution is extremely scalable."
"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."
"It works fine on lower networks as well."
 

Cons

"I would like to see the following: More freedom given to a power user Feature development on a site collection level without the need for farm-level rights"
"Ultimately SharePoint offers less than what you need for more than what you bargained."
"I have been facing some challenges when using SharePoint, as the workflows freeze at times, so there is a maintenance activity which needs to be done periodically."
"Better wiki offerings."
"The technical support level is practically nil."
"We would like more security features, like automating."
"The UI could be more flexible out of the box."
"Performance: The web page was sometimes not as fast as we'd like to see."
"They should reduce data consumption and improve network connection for video calls."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is very expensive.​"
"The pricing works for us."
"The cost is expensive, but worthwhile."
"The platform has medium pricing."
"SharePoint is included with our Microsoft license."
"The data classification and search elements are cheap."
"The pricing is competitive."
