"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The product has a valuable feature for quick verification of documents."
"This is a scalable solution that supports thousands of users."
"The integration's very good. You still have integration with lots of third party products, and it's very good."
"The scalability is enough for our use cases. It covers all our needs."
"We can now share to team members by MS Teams and assign planners to follow and update statuses in a single platform."
"It has made us faster and more efficient."
"Its functionality is enormous."
"OneDrive and SharePoint provide a secure, fully auditable way of storing information."
"I do like the collaboration around documents. The versioning history has proven useful in some instances as well."
"Quantity and variety of partners with solution development ability on the platform."
"SharePoint enabled the staff to share documents and work on a document simultaneously."
"Information is much more readily available."
"It would be interesting if they had graphical templates that allowed typical agile ceremonies to be documented better."
"The roadmap feature should be made easier to work with and modify. It's not really scalable."
"In the next release, I would like to have the ability to import pictures."
"The UI is good but bland. It could be updated a bit to make it more modern and interesting to look at."
"When we import the data in Confluence from Word or any other document, the formatting is not correct."
"I would like to see integration with Slack."
"The user interface is a little bit stale. The file attachments and how they work could be improved. There is also room for improvement when it comes to CDNs."
"An area for improvement in Atlassian Confluence is encouraging more vital interaction among the project members or users involved. 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."
"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 product does not perform 100% when used outside of a Microsoft based browser, Chrome, Firefox, etc."
"It is too heavy. MS should not have paid foreign coders dollars per each row of code. They wasted the stability and reliability in the end."
"We do sell Hyland OnBase, which is probably a competitor to SharePoint and does a lot more. In our own organization, we haven't had a need for it, but certainly, for our customers, we are finding that to be a better fit. In terms of the technical reasons for that, I'm not involved much on that side, so I can't give specifics, but there is certainly room for them to improve or add on certain features that clearly are not available in SharePoint, but they are available in Hyland OnBase."
"We'd like to be able to upload from MS Excel to deploy tasks and use drop-down lists to collect further information."
"The product must provide more automation."
"Integration needs to be more straightforward, particularly with Azure. SharePoint also needs a more comprehensive introductory course for users."
"During uptime under our network, it is hard to find info when content is hefty."
