## Reviews

### "Fairly good" — 3.0/5

> **Nahid** | *4 July 2024* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, organizing files and keeping them private
> 
> **Cons**: I don't like the cost when requiring some added features or functions that are expensive for chronic use
> 
> In fact, I tried it during my work as a classroom teacher, and it was good for sharing files with other teachers in a channel for each class, then I stopped.Because I got better programs

-----

### "Sharepoint Is The Solution To Your Storage Needs" — 4.0/5

> **Zach** | *22 February 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SharePoint has allowed for consolidation of our files, photos/videos and documents in a singular software solution that is easily accessible being a Microsoft-based organization. Working in marketing we often deal with files that are quite large in size and need to be accessible by a large group of people. Sharepoint has solved this challenge for us and made file sharing very simple. &#10;&#10;Since we already work in a Microsoft ecosystem it was a natural extension to start using Sharepoint instead of other file management solutions. &#10;&#10;If you're already familiar with other MS software like Excel, Word, Outlook, etc. learning how to use Sharepoint will be very easy as the interface looks similar.
> 
> **Cons**: In some instances due to the way our security is set up through Sharepoint it can be difficult to share files/documents with individuals external to our organization. The permissions won't always allow for us to share externally, or outside users report difficulty in figuring out how to access the files we are sharing with them. I find that it is great for internal-access, but we do periodically run into issues when trying to get external users to use Sharepoint.
> 
> Overall Sharepoint has proved as a useful solution to our challenge of managing such a high quantity and size of documents, photos and videos. Being already familiar with other Microsoft software it was easy to adopt Sharepoint and there has been high uptake across our organization. Previously across our organization individuals used several different types of file sharing and storage tools so it has been great to consolidate them into a singular solution.

### "SharePoint in the Workplace" — 5.0/5

> **Samm** | *23 March 2026* | Insurance Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Having all shared documents in one location on cloud-based software has been instrumental in effective team work. Having the ability to create multiple folders and also manage them based on security and permissions has significantly decreased the number of emails with potentially confidential attachments. All users who understand and are comfortable with SharePoint love the ability to search for specific documents rather. Furthermore, having the ability to use it on a web based platform as well as having "folders" within Windows allows users to use the software in an individualized way. We have folders that are accessible to only 4 employees and some that are accessible to 20 employees and they both function well.
> 
> **Cons**: The largest issue with SharePoint is the learning curve. It can be quite difficult for new users to navigate, specifically those who are less tech savvy. The inability to customize the software based on user can at times be difficult to manage. While SharePoint is a Microsoft product, it can be confusing to employees that they potentially have two places to save documents (OneDrive and SharePoint). Unfortunately, larger libraries can be slower when searching and/or syncing.
> 
> Overall SharePoint is a beneficial program within the workplace for group file management. This program works for small groups as well as larger groups and can be controlled based on user permissions which allows the ability to set up multiple libraries. Unfortunately there can be a rather steep learning curve for new users and larger libraries do not perform to the same level as smaller ones.

### "Powerful Collaboration with a Steep Learning Curve" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *8 February 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Centralized collaboration, robust document management, tight Microsoft 365 integration, customizable workflows, strong permissions.
> 
> **Cons**: The interface often feels cluttered and unintuitive, setup and customization can be complex, performance can be slow at times, and end-user adoption usually requires significant training.
> 
> My overall experience with Microsoft SharePoint has been productive but challenging, offering strong collaboration and document management features while requiring time to learn and manage effectively.

-----

### "SharePoint review" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *13 March 2026* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Integrates with Microsoft 365 (Teams, Outlook, Word, Excel) and has good version control and collaboration once it’s working.  It provides a&#10;centralized document storage instead of multiple shared drives that is &#10;accessible remotely without our VPN.
> 
> **Cons**: Not easy to set up or maintain — permissions, structure, and governance get complicated quickly.  Does not behave like a normal network drive, which causes issues with systems that expect file‑server access. Our ERP software cannot see SharePoint files, which forces workarounds or duplicate storage&#10;Syncing via OneDrive is unreliable with large or complex folder structures&#10; and requires ongoing IT involvement to keep things running smoothly
> 
> SharePoint can work well if your organization is fully cloud‑based and has IT resources to manage it properly. If you rely on ERP systems or applications that expect a traditional file server, SharePoint is not a great fit without significant workarounds.
