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 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."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"Information is much more readily available."
"Sharing information is very easy in SharePoint. We use multiple types of documents, like online Excel tools and online content editing, especially for group editing. This allows us to collaborate, even in distributed teams. Despite being geographically spread out, everyone can access the same files online, edit them, and see changes. We also use SharePoint to track all these changes, making our teamwork more collaborative overall. The tool fastens information sharing and collaboration."
"SharePoint acts as a version control system, allowing easy recovery of past document versions."
"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."
"It improved transparency around work products."
"It has made us faster and more efficient."
"Document flows, storage, and numbering take off the actions for checking and assigning the numbering and running around with approvals and pre-approvals."
"It has helped us with storing all the documents, which means that people are not going to intervene. There is a way of extracting knowledge within documentation and tracking it. There are knowledge assets for where documentation is stored, indexed and searchable through SharePoint."
 

Cons

"On the ITM side, there are conflicts, particularly on the convergence side, where it does not support cluster environments."
"Oracle Content Management poses complexities in initial implementation and configuration."
"The only issue my company has with the tool is the licensing part, which is expensive."
"The solution should improve its integration with other project management tools."
"Too many versions being released in a short time period. Too much time being devoted to migration planning."
"Emails stored now do not display metadata in native format."
"The introduction of AI and automation with Copilot could be a beneficial improvement."
"The initial setup process is not intuitive."
"The search functionality could be improved, especially when dealing with 'lift' lists, where there are performance issues."
"I would like a simpler, more cost-effective solution for connecting data sources with workflows and BI tools, or data mining tools."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's licensing part is expensive."
"For this type of solution, it is not wise to buy it without Software Assurance."
"They are about an eight in comparison to other similar products."
"The pricing is competitive."
"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 pricing works for us."
"The pricing is competitive."
"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…
