"We use a part of the solution called Acquia. The personalization portion of this is the most valuable aspect fo the solution."
"It is good for big projects."
"Ability to store files of any type."
"It improved transparency around work products."
"SharePoint has an option where you can open files on the browser, whereby more than five people can make amendments to one Excel online file."
"The most valuable features are the collaboration and sharing."
"OneDrive and SharePoint provide a secure, fully auditable way of storing information."
"For SharePoint, I believe the most valuable feature is the customization and allowing you to share and edit files and documents. Being able to share externally and the precise administration of the files in terms of giving permissions and controlling who has access to what is a very good feature."
"The ability to quickly and easily create team sites has been great."
"The ability to have version control and co-editing is vital to our workflows."
"It is a little bit simplified."
"Digital experience features like target, segmentation, and campaign management have a long way to go."
"The user experience in designing layouts should be much easier or much more helpful."
"I think the support needs to improve, as well as the integration with tracking and analytics systems."
"Replication needs improvement."
"The support is the worst. It is bad when Microsoft support does not even know what to do and you have to tell them. Also, they take too long to solve a problem."
"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."
"There's a challenge with desktop applications synchronizing with online documents in real-time. If someone is working on a document in the desktop version of Excel, for example, and someone else is editing the same document online, the changes won't sync immediately. That's the only real challenge we've encountered."
"The product must provide more automation."
"The integration with Outlook could be improved."
"SharePoint’s scalability could be improved."
"It should have more user-friendly customization, as it still requires developers to get engaged and build sites."
