Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a very complete and powerful solution."
"SharePoint manages version control, which makes it easier to track and amend documentation accurately, maintaining document integrity and enabling quick recovery if necessary."
"The most valuable features are the collaboration and sharing."
"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."
"Helps with document collaboration and workflow."
"SharePoint's collaborative features are valuable as they enable productivity by allowing multiple users to edit documents simultaneously."
"The product provides flexibility in collaboration."
"It has an easy to distribute administration capability, and can also scale to meet a large number of future needs."
"SharePoint is easy to collaborate with."
 

Cons

"We would like to see more features for RPA and AI."
"SharePoint sometimes cannot handle the amount of co-editing that we do."
"Replication needs improvement."
"Search can be improved a lot because we are always trying to compare it with Google Search. Beyond that, it would be helpful to tag the documents."
"Make it more intuitive."
"The limitations and boundaries must be extended."
"There's room for improvement in the search functionality, although it has matured significantly over the years."
"We'd like to be able to upload from MS Excel to deploy tasks and use drop-down lists to collect further information."
"Microsoft support could be better, especially for enterprise troubleshooting. They require a lot of logs and often rely on online support, which does not meet customer expectations."
