We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
This solution has provided us with a collaborative workspace to allow everyone to work together and be on the same page. The software is friendly to use for mixing data and analyzing it. It's a very robust product. The most valuable feature is the "Alert Me", which provides the ability to set an alert when content is either added or changed and that the alerts can be either real-time or aggregated for the day or the week. The solution's most valuable features is its document management. It allows sharing with external users and integrates well with Office apps and Microsoft Flow. The most valuable features for us are their document management list and hybrid forms. and We also use third party ad-dons to achieve workflows and other recent apps. The level of stability is good. The solution's most valuable aspects are its collaboration capabilities, its communications site and the innovation within the product itself. | It's really easy to use the solution. The design of the solution is its most valuable feature. The integration with Teams is the biggest value for us. In fact, it has only become more valuable now that it has integration with Teams. Teams allows you to stream, so that's good. The most valuable feature of this solution is the communication events. Valuable features include the integration with Microsoft Office and the fact that it is in the cloud. Also, it's quite easy to use. |
Cons | |
I would like to see more Agile techniques and seamless integration with other applications. This solution is not very stable. It is useful to arrange data but it's not the best for big data. Sometimes we have issues with our reports as a result. The product could be improved by accommodating different technologies, particularly integration. The ability to preview files in different formats should be expanded to include formats such as embedded postscript (EPS), AutoCAD, and Adobe Acrobat PDF. The solution needs to enable better sharing capabilities between users and external users. Several users also have problems with linking their emails to their Microsoft account. I think these tools do a pretty good job. There is only one area of improvement. Maybe Microsoft can invest a little bit more into the ease at which integration can be done with other third party applications. The solution is like a CRM, so the initial setup is complex. It takes a few days to deploy the solution and the length of time depends on how large the company's topology is and what the client's demands are. The permission management features need improvement. | We tried to integrate into SharePoint, but it was not really efficient. Yammer should be able to integrate with Microsoft products, such as Outlook. The solution must be able to stream by itself, without integration, the same way that you are able to do it on Facebook Live, Instagram, etc. Streaming must be embedded into it. This solution would be improved if it was well integrated with other communication applications. I would like to see a fancier user interface. That is one of the weak points of Yammer. Users need to be in the Acting Directory to exploit the features. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
There are some aggressive discounts offered by Microsoft for organizations that are not for profit, which we are, and it makes it quite attractive to consider. One of the reasons why we don't recommend the cloud version of SharePoint is the cost. With the on premise version, you pay for the license once. For the cloud version, there is a recurring fee. It is very expensive. They expect everyone to pay $20 or $30 per user per month. | Information Not Available |
