MS Sharepoint has been a much needed tool for our company to move forward and enhances collaboration, communication, and creates a source of truth between our employees.

Pros

Sharepoint has made collaboration across our organization so much easier. We have also connected many software applications to sharepoint as a common file repository, and it's created less issues within our network shared drive. We find MS Sharepoint is cheaper than other solutions. When we have issues Microsfot customer support is quick and effective.

Cons

We've found integrations between different software platforms are difficult to set up. However, once they are set up we generally don't need much efforts to maintain going forward.

Overall, my experience has been fine. I would not say its a low point for MS office, but it is my least favorite piece of the suite to use.

Pros

SharePoint has been good for me. I use it daily at my current job where we do a lot of document sharing on the quality side. It is easy to use and tracks projects well.

Cons

Sometimes getting to a sharepoint is hard especially when it is one that has been shared with me. I try to make it as easy as possible for myself.

Using SharePoint is like being on a rollercoaster designed by a committee—sometimes thrilling, sometimes terrifying, and occasionally you’re just hanging there wondering why you ever got on. It’s powerful, confusing, occasionally frustrating, but somehow you can’t live without it… mostly because your files are trapped inside.

Pros

SharePoint: the ultimate game of “Where Did I Save That?” Great for document hide-and-seek, turning clicks into cardio, and giving meetings an existential purpose. Bonus points for making you feel like a detective every time you try to find a version of a file that actually exists.

Cons

SharePoint: because who doesn’t love a good treasure hunt just to open a document? Menus everywhere, clicks galore, and don’t even get me started on the “modern” interface that somehow makes everything more confusing. Also doubles as a test of patience and willpower—Excel files, beware.

I have been using Microsoft SharePoint since I began working here. It is essential to our workflow, and it has not let me down.

Pros

My business used Microsoft SharePoint for nearly everything. It is easy to use, manage, and find necessary links. It is great to have everyone have access to the same home page as well. The collaboration and document management that this product offers is unmatched.

Cons

I haven't come across anything bad about Microsoft SharePoint. Any issues that I did have were promptly addressed by the support team.

Overall, even with all the cons, Sharepoint is one of a kind apps that allows your organization (small or enterprise) to collaborate and manage files/tasks/projects together. With almost endless ways to customize your sites you can do so many cool things with Sharepoint - from creating a Teams group where you keep your files and chat with colleagues to creating a whole Intranet web for your organization.

Pros

Microsoft Sharepoint is one of the most powerful apps in the whole MS Office suite. First of all - it allows collaboration between teams of any size. You can have 1 site member that just wants to keep their documents there, or you can have a site for thousands of people to upload any files or documents - Sharepoint allows you this. - Sharepoint is easy to start, hard to master kind of service. While creating a Teams Group or a small Sharepoint site could be pretty easy, building a whole intranet will require your organization a dedicated Sharepoint Administrator. -Sharepoint isn't cheap on the first glance. But if your organization uses other Microsoft services such as Business or Enterprise user licenses - you will save on storage prices. So I would prefer Sharepoint to any other similar service. - There are endless ways to use Sharepoint - team collaboration, project management and tracking. Easiness of use and administration (for simple tasks) can help you to manage tasks and files of your employees. -Not totally a pro or con - but PowerShell knowledge is a must for admins

Cons

\- Customer support from Microsoft is always hit or miss. Usually if you stuck with something looking elsewhere is easier than escalating to MS Support. - Interface could be tricky and non-intuitive. Sometimes even simple tasks can take a lot of time because of interface. - This is one of the most powerful Microsoft services available on a market so bugs are pretty inevitable. And given MS support sometimes doing some tasks is hard - If you have an on-prem environment - SharePoint is a cloud based service. You will have to migrate your files to a cloud first.

Overall SharePoint is a beneficial program within the workplace for group file management. This program works for small groups as well as larger groups and can be controlled based on user permissions which allows the ability to set up multiple libraries. Unfortunately there can be a rather steep learning curve for new users and larger libraries do not perform to the same level as smaller ones.

Pros

Having all shared documents in one location on cloud-based software has been instrumental in effective team work. Having the ability to create multiple folders and also manage them based on security and permissions has significantly decreased the number of emails with potentially confidential attachments. All users who understand and are comfortable with SharePoint love the ability to search for specific documents rather. Furthermore, having the ability to use it on a web based platform as well as having "folders" within Windows allows users to use the software in an individualized way. We have folders that are accessible to only 4 employees and some that are accessible to 20 employees and they both function well.

Cons

The largest issue with SharePoint is the learning curve. It can be quite difficult for new users to navigate, specifically those who are less tech savvy. The inability to customize the software based on user can at times be difficult to manage. While SharePoint is a Microsoft product, it can be confusing to employees that they potentially have two places to save documents (OneDrive and SharePoint). Unfortunately, larger libraries can be slower when searching and/or syncing.

Pros

The Integration into the OneDrive App aswell as the customization Options when creating Sites. The Amount of Linking, Settings and Guest Settings you can turn are amazing. I've never had a more easier tool to manage than sharepoint.

Cons

Unfortunately, the Pricing of Sharepoint is not ideal for everyone. Most of the Storage Options come with O365 Business Standard or above Licenses, which are taking costs at an exponentionally growing userbase unreal. Alot of Pricing Options are not transparent which is a bummer sometimes.

We use SharePoint as the default platform for content sharing and department websites. It is a great way to share content and designate permission-based viewing.

Pros

SharePoint is a great platform for publicly sharing sites and information. I love the massive data limits where you can basically store content into perpetuity.

Cons

It does have some limitations with functionality, but overall is very easy to use to I can deal with minor drawback.

SharePoint has been an invaluable tool for my team at more than 3 different companies, all for a price that doesn't break the bank. It is essential for any company using Teams for communication.

Pros

SharePoint is the best collaboration tool that Microsoft makes. It is designed to integrate well with Azure networks. Though not easy to set up for layman, once it is set up everything is very easy to use. Managing employee controls is a breeze. Organizing and distributing documents to individualized team based on permissions is great with SharePoint. The best part by far though is the integration in the other Microsoft products like Teams and Outlook for scheduling meetings and collaboration.

Cons

Like most Microsoft products, there will be bugs that have to worked out after every update. Microsoft's customer support is notoriously lackluster in this regard. The open community is where you'll find better support.

Overall, great. I think SharePoint does things that no other product does well. It makes things very consolidated.

Pros

I like that SharePoint has the ability to customize folders, files, and pages in intuitive ways. I love that it integrates with MS Power Automate as well.

Cons

Sometimes I wish more was possible. I want to add a widget to the top of my document library to guide users, but instead I need to make a page. Additionally, I wish it was easier to use AI to find, sort, and summarize files across various libraries or specific to one library. Sometimes search is difficult and bogged down with irrelevant files.
