SharePoint vs Workplace from Meta

• Microsoft SharePoint integrates well with Office 365. So long as the content is organized and users know what they are looking for, it can store a wealth of information.
• It's simple for administrators to add and remove users. It is possible to restrict access to specific pages of a website to particular individuals or groups.
• As long as the document structure is simple and keeps track of authors and last edited dates, it is simple to store documents in Microsoft's simple document structure.

• Bring groups of people together to share info, stories, updates, etc.
• The chat app is pretty decent.
• Workplace Live is a good large-group meeting broadcast platform.
• It's pretty intuitive to use for anyone who's used Facebook.
• It provides different levels of "security" for groups, allowing you to have open, closed, and "secret" groups.
• It's easy to paste images into your posts and comments, without having to necessarily go through the process of saving an image as a file, etc.
• It has search capabilities for finding old information.
• It's available for both desktop/laptop and mobile devices.
• It's secured to allow only those within the company to see company-related info (but it also has a few inter-company groups, which can be useful, too).
• Workplace Chat has the ability to set it to Do Not Disturb.
• You can set notifications, including email notifications, if you want to be alerted to new activity in your groups, etc.
• You can use Markdown to format your text

• It does take some work to get your setup to be as graphical as modern design tends to be.
• Overlapping calendars are great but they do take some time investment to create.
• Depending on how many project or teams you work with it can get a little overwhelming to have so many different groupings.

• It would be helpful if a review confirmation checkbox was able to be placed by files that needed to be read or reviewed. Along the same line, approve, review again, etc. would be helpful checkboxes to add by files, proposals.
• The layout is clean but suffers a bit from the center column width with two sidebars and a lot of empty space. It almost looks like a going out of business sale retail store where you notice the empty shelves. Workplace feels a bit bare at times. I think some good design modifications can help. Now on mobile, it is a great layout. I am addressing specifically the desktop browser login.
• An admin control dashboard would be really effective and even more so with more users on the platform.
