Principal Data Scientist at Tata Consultancy
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.
Ravi Raushan Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Software Engineer at ValueMomentum
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

"There are competitors out there, but there's a lot that Oracle Cloud offers outside of giving you just a basic database or basic infrastructure-as-a-service that add a lot of value to it."
"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."
"An additional thought I would share is that SharePoint is a very capable and reliable platform for organizations looking to improve their collaborations and document management."
"This solution has helped us with the categorization, organization, management, discovery, and delivery of program and project related information."
"SharePoint Search improved document searchability from different sources like file systems and Office 365."
"The ability to have version control and co-editing is vital to our workflows."
"It is very stable."
"The initial configuration was straightforward and the online support documentation is well written and easy to follow."
"What I like about SharePoint is that they keep up with a lot of updates, and they bring out new features."
"The latest versions of SharePoint are highly useful for configuring pages for managing and conveying large amounts of information, while giving users the ability to pinpoint the specific things they need with speed and accuracy."
 

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."
"I would like to see faster turnaround for provisioning new services."
"We did have stability issues in the old versions and there were too many hotfixes, in the 2013 version."
"Document libraries and document management could be improved."
"I would love to see a more robust workflow."
"The search functionality could be improved, especially when dealing with 'lift' lists, where there are performance issues."
"In Brazil and India, I thought technical support was really poor."
"Synchronization of files in OneDrive can take some time which can ‘annoy’ some users."
"I’ve personally experienced some difficulties in creating new pages, as this tool isn’t a web designer’s dream."
"Despite these changes, we still can't seem to get our version of SharePoint to return meaningful results, even when searching an exact document title."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's licensing part is expensive."
"It is very expensive.​"
"It comes bundled with the Microsoft 365 pricing plans."
"The pricing is competitive."
"It is pretty reasonable. It is $5 per month per user. We have 12 users now, so it is about $60 per month."
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"For this type of solution, it is not wise to buy it without Software Assurance."
"The licensing model for SharePoint Online is based on per user, and it is monthly. The price of the solution overall is good."
"Any extended support from Microsoft is expensive."
