Customer Success Manager at a tech company with 51-200 employees
Powerful data model building enables comprehensive document management for government sectors
The learning curve in Nuxeo is not easy, and it requires additional time. It's challenging to onboard new users or new developers. The resources on Hyland are good but lack exercises and use cases to apply by oneself during learning. There is not much practice to apply that knowledge directly on Nuxeo and get further details into the platform.

Centralized document governance has boosted collaboration and made knowledge sharing structured
SharePoint is a powerful platform, but there are a few areas where I think it could be improved, such as user experience. For new users, the interface and navigation can feel quite complex, specifically when working with multiple sites and document libraries. Another improvement would be search functionalities. While it is good sometimes, it does not always return the most relevant result unless a document is very well-structured and tagged. Also, initial setup and customizations can be time-consuming and may require technical expertise, specifically when configuring workflows or permissions. From a modern development perspective, tighter and more seamless integrations with tools including Power Automate and better support for custom backend integrations through APIs could make it more efficient. Overall, simplifying usability and enhancing search and integration capability would make SharePoint even stronger. One additional area I would appreciate improvement would be performance and responsiveness, especially when dealing with a large document library. Sometimes loading or navigating through large datasets can feel quite slow. Another aspect is permissions management. While it is very powerful, it can become complex to manage at scale, specifically when there are multiple levels of access across teams and projects. Improving developer experience would also be beneficial. Making customization, API integrations, and extensions more straightforward would help teams, especially backend developers, leverage SharePoint more efficiently.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Nuxeo is very powerful in terms of building up the data model and the context model."
"Nuxeo content management engine is powerful and can be adjusted to any need (user interface, document types, automations, workflows)."
"Combined reports and data with timeline tracking, better than looking into three systems to find the full picture."
"SharePoint manages version control, which makes it easier to track and amend documentation accurately, maintaining document integrity and enabling quick recovery if necessary."
"Its most valuable feature is the document library."
"SharePoint has streamlined many processes and provided additional organization for our company."
"SharePoint is already moving to cloud, if you are using SharePoint online, which is cloud-based technology, it is more accessible."
"MS Office 365 in combination with SharePoint, as a total collaboration tool, brings collaboration to another level."
"When properly implemented and users are adequately trained, SharePoint can take the place of network file shares for most types of use cases."
"It's providing a social collaboration experience to a culture of heavy email users."
 

Cons

"The learning curve in Nuxeo is not easy, and it requires additional time. It's challenging to onboard new users or new developers."
"Pricing is too high. Nuxeo Studio has a fixed price, no matter the number of active users is."
"You still need a bit of expertise to add branding."
"It is not really better; we use the same solution as before with Google Drive and the Google App solution."
"We'd like to be able to upload from MS Excel to deploy tasks and use drop-down lists to collect further information."
"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."
"The pricing and licensing is one of the most crucial parts of using Microsoft SharePoint."
"It should have more user-friendly customization, as it still requires developers to get engaged and build sites."
"Submitting document changes function needs to be improved."
"The solution lacks collaboration features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Any extended support from Microsoft is expensive."
"The platform has medium pricing."
"It comes bundled with the Microsoft 365 pricing plans."

"The cost is expensive, but worthwhile."
"The pricing works for us."
"For this type of solution, it is not wise to buy it without Software Assurance."
