Staff had there own individual folders that tutor could access to find lesson plans > > **Cons**: Nothing to be honest, a minute things that I wasn’t able to set it up as my home page but that was most likely due to my computer. > > Really positive experience using SharePoint ----- ### "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. ----- ### "Great tool for office communication" — 5.0/5 > **Michael** | *29 June 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: SharePoint has been a great program for business allowing us to share large amounts of data to our teams out in the field and back at the office. It's fantastic for keeping all our heavy project files, blueprints, and everyday paperwork in one organized place. Everyone always knows where to find the latest versions of documents, which really helps our crews communicate and stay on the same page. > > **Cons**: It can feel a bit overwhelming when you first start using it, so it takes some time for new hires to get the hang of everything. Also, setting up who has access to which folders can be a bit of a headache to manage, and sometimes syncing really massive folders takes longer than you'd like. > > Overall, my experience has been really positive. It acts as our main hub for everything we do, keeping all our project information safe and easy to find. Even though it takes a little work to set up initially, it's honestly become an essential tool for keeping our day-to-day operations running smoothly and keeping everyone connected across different job sites. ----- ### "Good Features, but Not the Easiest to Use" — 3.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *10 July 2026* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most about Microsoft SharePoint was how easy it made it to store, organize, and share documents across a team. Having everything in one place with version history and permission controls helped keep files organized and reduced confusion. It also integrates well with other Microsoft 365 apps, which made collaboration more convenient for our team. > > **Cons**: What I liked least about Microsoft SharePoint was that it isn't very intuitive, especially for new users. Finding certain settings or managing permissions can be confusing, and customizing sites often requires more technical knowledge than expected. It also felt a little slow at times, especially when navigating larger document libraries. > > Overall, my experience with Microsoft SharePoint has been average. It does a good job of managing documents and supporting collaboration, especially if your organization already uses Microsoft 365. That said, the learning curve, occasional performance issues, and somewhat confusing interface kept it from being a tool I really enjoyed using. It's a solid platform with useful features, but I think there's room to make it more user-friendly. ----- Page: 1 / 220\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/1167/sharepoint?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/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
