Overall Satisfaction with MS SharePoint / SQL
MS SharePoint/SQL is being across our organization as a intranet to connect our business units and the leaders with their employees. We use the message board to relay information, and department pages to allow employees access to information about their business unit.
- Relays information
- Stores important MS documents
- Enterprise organization for department executives
- Editing pages could be more user friendly.
- Attach departments to documents, like file sharing.
- Connect with LinkedIn and Twitter
Its integration with MS products is a plus. SharePoint does well as an information hub because it allows users access to an array of tools that can be used to manage documents, files, workbooks, etc... while allowing some control and security with the use of permissions and access. Because it is a Microsoft product the learning curve is relative small with new users.
Using MS SharePoint / SQL
100 - Anybody from IT to Human Resources to Business Intelligence uses SharePoint as a way to relay information and communicate with employees.
2 - Navigation of permissions and access is key so someone will have to know how that environment looks. Also, if editing of pages is to be left to one person or team they will have to know how to edit within SharePoint. Any functionality within SharePoint will need to involve some minor programming so a SQL expert would not hurt to have either.
