Find out what your peers are saying about Dropbox, Box, Microsoft and others in Content Collaboration Platforms."There are no more server and hardware operational costs and downtime, updates, etc. for all the workloads available. Newer features and updates are available immediately. Can be managed from a single web interface. Cloud-based, so same experience for all users, regardless of location."
"The integration with other applications is pretty good."
"We use it for documentation management, to collaborate with Microsoft Teams, web calls, web conference calls, chats, and as a documentation repository mainly. We have an Office pack suite to be able to write documentation, make spreadsheets, and create PowerPoints."
"The products are quite simple for the end-users to use, the up-time is very good, the product is practically maintenance-free, and the multi-layer security is excellent from the security standpoint."
"The most valuable feature is the integration between net and mobile devices."
"The way the ERP presents information for the user is very good."
"It is stable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the integration."
"A full-featured collaboration tool that is as easy to use as Facebook."
"The product was easy to use."
"The solution is used as a knowledge platform for sharing knowledge and information that everybody can easily access."
"Storage is the best thing about the solution."
"We have found that, with Teams, if you are including one more person who is not in the company ecosystem, supposedly I'm inviting them as a guest in the chat. However, when I do that, I can't share files."
"It needs improvements around its compatibility with non-Microsoft products."
"Normally, they have a way to work with specific developments, and I think they shouldn't allow the partners to make some changes they have made. When I have a client with a lot of changes, we have a problem with that because there aren't rules to develop inside the ERP, so you can do anything."
"In terms of improvement, it should have tutorials when you first have the opportunity to use it, to be able to really learn it."
"Office 365 could allow for smoother collaboration with other companies, which is the main reason we use it. The B2B connection is something we need, like global adverse lists between two tenants or multiple users. That's what we're missing at the moment."
"Office 365 could be easier to use at first. Tutorials are needed to know how to use the solution."
"In the next release, I would like to have a more intuitive tutorial."
"The one big problem with the solution is if you are presenting in Teams and someone puts their hand up, you don't get a notification. If you are running a meeting and just presenting you don't know that people have their hands up and want to ask a question."
"The product should allow users to assign tasks and automate processes."
"There needs to be a restriction on who can download content."
"The conferencing feature does not work well with multiple parties or locations."
"The implementation could be made easier."
