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.

The gaps in the API are filled by our own R+D and the publish mechanism is very reliable.
The API is awful. We needed to develop a batch load tool in order to send automated events to Tibber API. The current API version is not well documented, i.e. the current version of the API in the software doesn't correspond to the web-documented API. We had to imagine parameters and names. We had difficulty making it all work, as the login/SSO mechanism was not properly explained so that we could perform external logins to the API and use their features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Integration with Office 365 and Active Directory, and access from all our company users as part of the Office 365 licenses, plus hassle free access from mobile devices to sites, forms, and lists, with powerful content search and preview."
"SharePoint has made things easier with the increased functionality for building the portals, microsites, and total integration with Microsoft categories."
"Ease of use, ease of setup, ease of administration, ease of configuration, ease of customization... what's not to like?"
"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."
"SharePoint is a great document management tool."
"The ability to have version control and co-editing is vital to our workflows."
"Tech support tops off as excellent."
"From my perspective, since I am a data professional and we have to keep a record of all the data as per our client's demand, SharePoint provides us a repository where we can keep all our data intact and updated."
"The gaps in the API are filled by our own R+D and the publish mechanism is very reliable."
"Typically the classical ROI is about seven months from full deployment, but there are a lot of benefits that we can't measure with this metric, like more dissemination of knowledge, fast internal expert finding, less internal emails, less waste of time, and better employee engagement."
 

Cons

"SharePoint has workflow built into the software however it is very simplistic."
"The management of the product/back-end is complex."
"The solution lacks collaboration features."
"The fact that it relies on the Internet and runs in a browser means it is bound to have performance issues."
"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 user interface should improve. It is still a bit clunky for the new user to navigate around."
"I would rate Microsoft support a six out of 10, which I feel is a fair rating."
"It would be nice if the platform made it easier to implement a complete document management process (digitalization, OCR, protocols, etc.) without the need to integrate software from different vendors."
"More customizable features, particularly in mobile app; better preview of document and images stored in other cloud services (like Google Drive, Dropbox and so on)."
"The API is awful."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They are about an eight in comparison to other similar products."
"SharePoint is included with our Microsoft license."
"Licensing can be by server or by seat."
"The pricing is competitive."
"The licensing model for SharePoint Online is based on per user, and it is monthly. The price of the solution overall is good."
"The solution's pricing is relatively expensive because it's bundled with other products."
"The replacement costs for it are cheaper if you use only SharePoint."
"It comes bundled with the Microsoft 365 pricing plans."
