The integration with Microsoft 365 is seamless, Teams, Outlook, and OneDrive all work together smoothly, which reduces duplication and improves workflow efficiency. Its permission controls are robust, allowing administrators to manage access at a granular level. > > **Cons**: The initial setup can feel complex, especially for organisations without dedicated IT support. Customising sites, libraries, and permissions requires time and familiarity with the platform. Some users may find the interface less intuitive compared to modern collaboration tools, and occasional sync issues with OneDrive can disrupt workflows. > > Microsoft SharePoint has been a reliable platform for organising documents, managing permissions, and keeping team information in one place. Once everything is set up, it streamlines collaboration and reduces duplication, though the initial learning curve can be steep. ----- ### "EXCELLENT.." — 5.0/5 > **ELDHO** | *4 June 2026* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: t integrates natively with Word, Excel, Teams, and Outlook.: Users can build workflows using Power Automate without jumping to external apps > > **Cons**: Non-technical team members often find the navigation layout confusing and difficult to understand... > > a highly robust, deeply integrated enterprise platform that excels at document management and collaboration, but comes with a notable learning curve. ----- ### "Useful for org-wide intranets as well as team sharing" — 4.0/5 > **Amber** | *28 July 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Sharing documents easily among team members, creating intranet page easily and embedding different widgets and apps. > > **Cons**: Some aspects e.g. search function can be hit or miss and some permissions require liaising with our IT department. > > Our organisational intranet is hosted on SharePoint Modern, and I am the administrator. I enjoy the design capabilities and how easy it was to learn. I also enjoy sharing files with colleagues within my team in a small SharePoint site. ----- ### "The digital backbone for organized company documentation" — 4.0/5 > **Brendan** | *6 July 2026* | Computer Hardware | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: SharePoint is the best place to keep our organization’s 'source of truth.' It’s fantastic for structured document management storing company policies, HR forms, and project documentation in a way that is secure and easy for the whole team to navigate. The integration with Microsoft 365 is seamless, and having granular control over permissions and document versioning is essential for keeping our sensitive data organised and protected. > > **Cons**: The setup can be quite complex. Because it is so powerful and flexible, it’s very easy to end up with a cluttered, confusing site structure if you don't have someone on the team who is dedicated to maintaining it. The learning curve for setting up sites and managing permissions correctly is definitely steeper than just using a basic shared folder. > > S harePoint is an essential piece of infrastructure for us. It’s moved us away from scattered file servers to a modern, cloud-based intranet that scales as we grow. While it does require some investment of time and discipline to keep the architecture clean, the trade-off is a much more organised, secure, and professional way to manage our company's collective knowledge. ----- ### "Powerful Document Management and Collaboration Platform That Can Be Complex to Manage" — 5.0/5 > **Josh** | *1 July 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: SharePoint is good value if you’re already on Microsoft 365, gives you a central place to store, organise and share files without needing another system. It handles document management well with version control, permissions, structured libraries so everything stays in one place and easier to find once it’s set up right. It works well with Teams and OneDrive too, makes collaboration and sharing simple across users. Security is solid and having everything in one platform helps keep things controlled. It’s also flexible enough to build basic intranet pages or internal sites for communication. > > **Cons**: Value drops a bit if you need extra support or time spent managing it. Support can be slow unless you’ve got the right plan. Employee access and permissions are powerful but easy to overcomplicate, can end up confusing who has access to what. The interface isn’t the most intuitive, takes time to get used to and can feel cluttered, especially for new users. > > Overall it’s a solid platform once it’s set up properly, works best if you’re already using Microsoft 365. Great for keeping documents organised and improving collaboration, but if it’s not managed well it can get messy and frustrating fairly quickly. ----- Page: 1 / 219\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1167/sharepoint?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1167/sharepoint) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
