Overall Satisfaction

SharePoint is used globally throughout the organisation to help our users collaborate on projects effectively.

Pros

  • Business process automation
  • Document collaboration
  • Task Management
  • Office Integration

Cons

  • Rendering of information
  • Social
  • Discussions
  • Speed of project work on collaborative working
  • Expertise finding
  • managing documentation
There aren't that many tools that have the same integration with office as SharePoint does. For small businesses I have setup simple google docs working for people who want to be as lean as possible, and while this is fine, you do not have the same automation, or process side of things, which would then require other tools to try and fill in these gaps.
Again, nothing offers the same functionality for collaboration and document management on the market with such integration with the other Office package. Everyone uses MS Office, and we do heavily, so anything else to try and seamlessly bridge the gap between people, projects and documents across multiple teams and business units just doesn't exist in the same way.
If you are a small business or a start up, the outlay for SharePoint is quite a lot, so I might not recommend it, but for enterprise I think it is a really very good tool.
