SharePoint Likes & Dislikes
The ability to share documents with a single link keeps everyone on the same page and cuts out the old hassle of email attachments. Having version history built in also brings peace of mind, since rolling back to a previous edit or fix is quick and simple.
You can store multiple documents in one place and it works easily with MS Teams, One Drive, and Outlook. The security and data protection is also great, making me feel like my documents will be safe.
Integration with Teams and Onedrive to provide a seamless but fruitful experience. Makes locating and integrating docs and text almost seamless. However, complex data sheets and data files are not as easy to work with and search.
Sometimes the interface feels a bit cluttered, and finding specific settings or features can take longer than expected. There are also occasional sync issues when uploading documents from multiple locations, which can be annoying. Lastly, setting up permissions for new folders and projects isn't always as intuitive as I'd like, but it gets easier once you're used to it.
It can be overwhelming for new users. I have had to help co-workers who have never used SharePoint before because they find it confusing and hard to navigate. It can sometimes be a bit clunky when teaching a new hire.
Complex data/files that contain lots of details are hard to categorise, scan and search. Dedicated Insight engines offer much more, but again it is down to cost versus benefit. Search is not as advanced as it could be and uner testing/evaluation we used another insight engine to assist/better provide search facilites an this worked much better. Not sure what we will be considering, maybe splitting complex and less complex and using the insight engine on the complex only data.

SharePoint Streamlines team collaboration with Easy Sharing and Robust Version Control
SharePoint has honestly made working with the team feel way easier. Now that everything lives in one spot, I don't have to dig through emails to find right document or wonder if I've got the latest version. Sending out files is as simple as dropping someone a link and the built in version history has saved us more than a few times when someone accidentally overwrites something. It's just a smoother and more hassle-free way to handle project docs and reports. Setting up the right permissions is straight forward too. I like that I can make certain folders editable just for the QA team while sharing reports as read only for everyone else. And having all our company guidelines and policies there means I never have to chase down HR for details. Overall, SharePoint just helps us stay organized and keeps things moving, so we can actually focus on the real work instead of tracking down files. - MANAGER OF IT SERVICES<50M USDReal EstateReview Source
Integration Within MS Platforms Effective, Limitations Evident Outside Microsoft Ecosystem
This works really well and integrates within our MS Platforms really well. Limitations are apparent when you go outside of the MS environment, such as Google. - SENIOR MANAGER, HUMAN RESOURCES50M-1B USDMiscellaneousReview Source

SharePoint Enhances File Collaboration, But Trash Bin Functionality Remains Challenging
MS Sharepoint presented huge improvements in past few years, today is the key tool in big organization helping teams to organize all kind of files and to share them across the company. It allows you to collaborate more, sharing files in a fast and simple way. Today Sharepoint is part of my daily routine, I can organize my personal files, project files and even edit them in the online version. This is integrated with all other microsoft tools. One key feature would be to get help from AI to organize the files in different folders, get suggestion on how to split them into more organized folders and AI to identify the duplicity of content, avoiding usage of capacity. - Finance Associate1B-10B USDReal EstateReview Source
Initial Hesitation Overcome as SharePoint Enhances Collaboration Despite Permission Issues
I learned about SharePoint about 2 years ago. Our company wanted us to stop using local drives and move all files to SharePoint. I was hesitant at first because who really wants to move thousands of files? However, I have truly grown to love SharePoint. We use it for everything. I use it for personal files. We have individual SharePoint libraries setup across the company to better organize ourselves but also to allow or limit access to different people all over the county. It really is quite an amazing tool
