Built-in integrations increase efficiency but cluster support requires improvement
On the ITM side, there are conflicts, particularly on the convergence side, where it does not support cluster environments. Multiple instances need to be set up and configured. In the cloud environment, improvements are ongoing. The fallback and benefit assessment of the product suggest a need for a rating of seven or eight.

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 product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The reliability of the system is significant, creating a lot of trust among our customers."
"It's a comprehensive solution for managing documents within our organization's management framework."
"It has improve our organization by speeding up document sharing."
"SharePoint acts as a version control system, allowing easy recovery of past document versions."
"Tech support tops off as excellent."
"SharePoint enabled the staff to share documents and work on a document simultaneously."
"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."
"The stability of SharePoint is high."
"Our staff found it simpler, as they did not have to work within a classification system."
"The workflow feature is valuable because it enables us to cascade responsibilities."
 

Cons

"The only issue my company has with the tool is the licensing part, which is expensive."
"Oracle Content Management poses complexities in initial implementation and configuration."
"On the ITM side, there are conflicts, particularly on the convergence side, where it does not support cluster environments."
"SharePoint is not always intuitive to use and can be overwhelming for non-tech-savvy users."
"Emails stored now do not display metadata in native format."
"We would like more security features, like automating."
"We do sell Hyland OnBase, which is probably a competitor to SharePoint and does a lot more. In our own organization, we haven't had a need for it, but certainly, for our customers, we are finding that to be a better fit. In terms of the technical reasons for that, I'm not involved much on that side, so I can't give specifics, but there is certainly room for them to improve or add on certain features that clearly are not available in SharePoint, but they are available in Hyland OnBase."
"The product must provide more automation."
"Too many versions being released in a short time period. Too much time being devoted to migration planning."
"Processing data from multiple site collections is not easy as they reside in different databases."
"SharePoint Online could improve the user interface and when modifying any of the user interfaces can be challenging. Additionally, there are challenges with the detail in the analytics user interface and the overall customization could improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's licensing part is expensive."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"For this type of solution, it is not wise to buy it without Software Assurance."
"The data classification and search elements are cheap."
"We have purchased add-ons to handle multiple site collections, form creation, and design."
"Any extended support from Microsoft is expensive."
"SharePoint is included with our Microsoft license."
"It is very expensive.​"
"The solution's pricing is relatively expensive because it's bundled with other products."

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…
