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.

"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
"This solution has improved our organization by providing a central repository for business data with control over sensitive data."

Cons

"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."

"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."
"The setup and the support could be improved when it comes to populating the reports from a mainframe environment."
"No good process to import emails from several users into a single comprehensive SP repository."
"The search functionality could be improved, especially when dealing with 'lift' lists, where there are performance issues."
"The initial setup was very complex."
"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."
"Integration needs to be more straightforward, particularly with Azure. SharePoint also needs a more comprehensive introductory course for users."
"​Improve the user-friendliness."
"The management of the product/back-end is complex."
