Improving data accessibility and security through enhanced interface design
In my current role, we use Mobius to capture data. We are partnered with the government, and the Mobius app is used to ensure accurate data capture. We use it alongside Salesforce to document our clients' entire process as they go through programs, capturing details of their work journey Mobius…

Streamlined collaboration through seamless integration and customization
I have been an administrator for SharePoint and have used it as an end-user for document storage. Predominantly, I've been involved in administration SharePoint helps a lot since we've moved from using it directly to using it as a backend for Teams, which makes collaboration easier. It supports…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution has improved our organization by providing a central repository for business data with control over sensitive data."
"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
"It provides a single pane of glass for delivering content from multiple repositories. It is also highly recommended because of the ease of use when it comes to searching and retrieving from multiple repositories simultaneously."
"We can arrange all our documents on one platform and see the document's changes and edits."
"SharePoint is already moving to cloud, if you are using SharePoint online, which is cloud-based technology, it is more accessible."
"The most valuable feature of SharePoint is its ease of use."
"The product provides flexibility in collaboration."
"The search feature is valuable."
"It has good integration with other MS products."
"OneDrive and SharePoint provide a secure, fully auditable way of storing information."
"No code and low code, scalable, and stable collaboration platform. Straightforward to set up. Its support system is good and offers fast issue resolution."
 

Cons

"Sales and service need to be more consistent."
"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."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."
"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."
"There's room for improvement in the search functionality, although it has matured significantly over the years."
"There's a challenge with desktop applications synchronizing with online documents in real-time. If someone is working on a document in the desktop version of Excel, for example, and someone else is editing the same document online, the changes won't sync immediately. That's the only real challenge we've encountered."
"The solution should be made more user-friendly for technical and business people."
"SharePoint’s scalability could be improved."
"The navigation is confusing."
"We'd like to be able to upload from MS Excel to deploy tasks and use drop-down lists to collect further information."
"It has worked very well for me. It seems like they've improved everything. I don't have any cons about it as such, but I don't think they have a talk-to-text, speech-to-text, or speech-to-type. That would be cool for accessibility."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."
"Licensing can be by server or by seat."
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"The data classification and search elements are cheap."
"The licensing model for SharePoint Online is based on per user, and it is monthly. The price of the solution overall is good."
"The platform has medium pricing."
"The pricing is competitive."
"For this type of solution, it is not wise to buy it without Software Assurance."
"Any extended support from Microsoft is expensive."

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…
