"The one way in which this solution could be improved is by offering better design and UI."

I was researching a tool that could be used for better interactions offline among users on a specific topic or discussion. That feature would make Atlassian Confluence better."
"Improve the user-friendliness."
"Processing data from multiple site collections is not easy as they reside in different databases."
"SharePoint’s scalability could be improved."
"We would like more security features, like automating."
"It should have more user-friendly customization, as it still requires developers to get engaged and build sites."
"Allow more functionalities for the on-premise version. Do not force the move of content to a non-private cloud."
"It has worked very well for me. It seems like they've improved everything. I don't have any cons about it as such, but I don't think they have a talk-to-text, speech-to-text, or speech-to-type. That would be cool for accessibility."
"The solution lacks collaboration features."
