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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a very complete and powerful solution."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to easily build intranet sites for communicating within teams, storing documentation, product information, pricing policies, updates on product infrastructure, and other related news."
"SharePoint's collaborative features are valuable as they enable productivity by allowing multiple users to edit documents simultaneously."
"It has made us faster and more efficient."
"For any organization with more than one person in it, if they are trying to organize things to let people in the company know what others are doing, then this solution is good for them."
"SharePoint is smooth and easy to use for editing, updating, and uploading files."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is file sharing or information sharing."
"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."
"SharePoint acts as a version control system, allowing easy recovery of past document versions."
 

Cons

"We would like to see more features for RPA and AI."
"It will fully use your system resources."
"The company also needs to make sure that their policies are dictating how information is stored and used, instead of letting SharePoint take control."
"More hints and make it more user-customizable."
"​Improve the user-friendliness."
"The initial setup is complex and has room for improvement."
"The search functionality could be improved, especially when dealing with 'lift' lists, where there are performance issues."
"Make it more intuitive."
"The management of the product/back-end is complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is pretty reasonable. It is $5 per month per user. We have 12 users now, so it is about $60 per month."
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"The data classification and search elements are cheap."
"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."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"The platform has medium pricing."
"We have purchased add-ons to handle multiple site collections, form creation, and design."
"SharePoint is included with our Microsoft license."

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…
