Use Cases and Deployment Scope

MS Sharepoint replaced our team's Google Drive/Drop Box. It became the web-based app to manage and host our collective work on our documents and to help us to work in collaboration. Since it is part of the Microsoft suite, it worked with other Office products for productivity, which as a team we all already used.

Pros and Cons

Collaboration
Team work
Document sharing
Hosting
Microsoft Office

Needs to be easier to find/install
Not marketed, like at all

Return on Investment

Reduce emails (documents are collaborated on in real-time online)
Increase productivity

Alternatives Considered

While a little pricy at $10 a month (the other plan isn't worth it), if your team can afford it, MS SharePoint is totally worth it. It is one of the best apps for what it does, beating DropBox and Google Drive in plugins, functionality, and third-party support. And SharePoint also is easy to learn, since it lives in the MS ecosystem.

Other Software Used

Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365 Business, Novi Survey, Blue Enterprise Surveys, ProProfs Survey Maker, NUVI, Hootsuite Free, Qualtrics, Acronis True Image, Blue Planet Emulation Cloud, CreditForce

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited: Teamwork, collaboration in the cloud, especially if you are already using Office apps. Perfect for Windows users, but still manageable with other platforms. Perfect for content creation (writing especially).

Less suited: MacOS or Linux would be better suited with other productivity teamwork apps (even if you have an Office 360 subscription).

Perfect document management system!
