Microsoft SharePoint vs. Mitratech PolicyHub

Very user friendly. If you're already using M365 products it offers great integration! If you're using Azure AD it offers SSO for IAM and integrates nicely with Azure AD Groups which can then be used for Access management. As our IT / Azure Administrator, I particularly like the "sharing link" options where you can send a link with an expiration date and not have to remember to remove the link / access after a project / business case scenario is over.

If you need a centralized location for policies and procedures, this system is great for the cost and effectiveness. While other systems had more bells and whistles, PolicyHub had everything one needs to maintain their P&Ps without costing a small fortune.

• There are far too many good features to choose from, and advanced features are noticeably absent.
• There is room for improvement in terms of integration with non-Microsoft products, as well as developer Story.
• It is challenging to provide easier access via file explorer while also granting outside users and guests access.

• Document retraction can be confusing. Document in the library will still show as published even though it has been retracted.
• Reporting is lacking in some areas. We have had issues meeting compliance requirements for document review status dates.

It's integral to our business. It's already included with most of the Office 365 licensing we buy, so the cost is effectively zero. It stores our files, it is the foundation for custom applications, and Microsoft only continues to enhance its functionality and its connections to other Microsoft tools. SharePoint just keeps getting better and better.

No usability issues reported. Individual teams also have allocated areas which replace legacy shared drives on local LANs. Access to Sharepoint resources is fully integrated with corporate Active Directory with additional two-factor authentication required for administrative users. Users have access to Microsoft Services Hub which allows you to create, manage, and track support requests while staying current on Microsoft technologies with access to select self-paced learning paths

Support for SharePoint is quite good. Microsoft provides good support. Microsoft offers

• Quick turnaround time for issues
• A range of support services
• Access to a network of resources
• Escalation of issues
• Ongoing development and commitment to produce enhancement

The majority of support is required for initial installation. Once complete and the system is operating we have had very few support issues.

The face to face training I received was on SharePoint Administration. It was rushed as there was a lot of information to cover and the application of the labs weren't that great either. I like to be able to relate what I am learning to what I am currently doing.

I like to learn at my own pace and online training allows for that. Additionally, you can skip through pieces of content that you already know or are already comfortable with. Microsoft actually offers great videos on their website for basic fundamental SharePoint Training. I have used these training videos in some of my own training sessions with end users.

Planning to the last detail would be advised. SharePoint is a very large application that takes a lot of finesse to get operational

There were a number of calls and fixes that had to take place. we have a number of patches in places and bugs that needed fixing. we identified issues as we went along and became the company trying to test the system with no real benefit to us.

The reasons for selecting MS SharePoint are: SharePoint provides ease of use and web design assistance and support SharePoint helps you schedule your content for publishing. enables users to share documents with external parties and offers a better internal structure of the content and better indexing and searching capabilities.

• Increased collaboration - MS Sharepoint has increased knowledge share and collaboration between departments. This saves time and energy because of its efficient and effective communication
• Increased document security - MS Sharepoint has increased our document security so we're safer knowing that our documents are security and access controlled appropriately. We are less prone to get in trouble by our customers due to the security provided by MS Sharepoint
• Negative Impact Compared to other software - Not sure if the MS Sharepoint's main functionalities could've been met with other tools we currently have

• It has enabled us to maintain a central database of P&P to ensure everyone is on the same page. We were completely paper/manual before so some things didn't get updated appropriately. This enables us to review and comply with requirements we have as a federally-qualified health center. It also makes it easier for us to pull policies when we need them.
