We performed a comparison between Microsoft 365 Business and SharePoint based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Mobile Device Management (MDM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The two biggest value adds of the solution are having the ability to outsource the email and not having to manage the email server. It's just seamless. Having the most current versions all around and having things updating frequently by themselves ensures that everybody's got access to the same software."
"I'm satisfied with how they handle data, and the people there are very friendly."
"The product's most valuable features are quick integration and video calls."
"The best thing about the product is the ecosystem of it. As most of our users are using Windows and it's a product of Microsoft, we find we get amazing performance."
"In terms of user experience, it is very easy to use and flexible. It is more interactive as compared to the other tools that we have. Its features are more useful than other software solutions."
"The integration with all of the combinations of tools has been problem-free so far."
"Collaboration is one of the main features of Microsoft 365 Business."
"It provides a single place to manage all of your tasks. It is easier to collaborate within our team or outside of them."
"Helps with document collaboration and workflow."
"Removed the need of paper storage and people flow into the office."
"SharePoint has made things easier with the increased functionality for building the portals, microsites, and total integration with Microsoft categories."
"OneDrive and SharePoint provide a secure, fully auditable way of storing information."
"Combined reports and data with timeline tracking."
"Its configuration management ability is critical for document-based systems."
"Its functionality is enormous."
"It's stable. It's very widely used by companies. Also, the knowledge of the product has improved over the years, and by other companies that support it or are Microsoft SharePoint partners. So if there are problems, there's always a user or company that knows the information or can help you; even with very uncommon problems."
"The online and desktop versions should have the same user experience."
"The backup option should be included in Microsoft 365 Business."
"More integration with Cortana would be helpful."
"The price could be better."
"The security features and the engine they are using are not good enough. They are not able to protect you from phishing attacks, which is the biggest drawback of this solution. We have been getting phishing emails, and I have been chasing Microsoft every single day. In terms of configuration, all the controls that they have recommended are in place, but we are still getting a lot of phishing emails. I would like to see a feature that allows us to share a folder from an online archive, which is a sort of mailbox attached to the primary mailbox. Currently, you can share folders, contacts, and calendars only in the primary mailbox. You can't share any folder or other things from the online archive. The limit of the primary mailbox is 50 GB, whereas the online archive is unlimited, so it would be useful if we can share a folder from the online archive."
"In a future release, I would like to see what more Microsoft can do in terms of integration with other solutions."
"The technical support need to improve, I have had bad experiences."
"One of the only aspects that I do not like about Microsoft is that they release solutions into the market without testing them and rely on users to test them."
"Using SharePoint is difficult."
"The initial setup was very complex."
"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."
"You still need a bit of expertise to add branding."
"SharePoint’s scalability could be improved."
"There are some limitations on storage."
"The initial setup is complex and has room for improvement."
"Flexibility and extensibility, above everything, could be improved."
