It integrates perfectly with the Microsoft Office suite and offers lots of options for those types of file format when stored in Sharepoint Sites. > > **Cons**: Sharepoint is not for all scenarios, it can be a very powerful tool for collaboaration given that the right file type are used. Setting us security is also quite different for traditional NTFS security. ----- ### "Sharepoint - service with endless way of use" — 5.0/5 > **Yurii** | *March 28, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Microsoft Sharepoint is one of the most powerful apps in the whole MS Office suite. First of all - it allows collaboration between teams of any size. You can have 1 site member that just wants to keep their documents there, or you can have a site for thousands of people to upload any files or documents - Sharepoint allows you this. - Sharepoint is easy to start, hard to master kind of service. While creating a Teams Group or a small Sharepoint site could be pretty easy, building a whole intranet will require your organization a dedicated Sharepoint Administrator. -Sharepoint isn't cheap on the first glance. But if your organization uses other Microsoft services such as Business or Enterprise user licenses - you will save on storage prices. So I would prefer Sharepoint to any other similar service. - There are endless ways to use Sharepoint - team collaboration, project management and tracking. Easiness of use and administration (for simple tasks) can help you to manage tasks and files of your employees. -Not totally a pro or con - but PowerShell knowledge is a must for admins > > **Cons**: - Customer support from Microsoft is always hit or miss. Usually if you stuck with something looking elsewhere is easier than escalating to MS Support. - Interface could be tricky and non-intuitive. Sometimes even simple tasks can take a lot of time because of interface. - This is one of the most powerful Microsoft services available on a market so bugs are pretty inevitable. And given MS support sometimes doing some tasks is hard - If you have an on-prem environment - SharePoint is a cloud based service. You will have to migrate your files to a cloud first. > > Overall, even with all the cons, Sharepoint is one of a kind apps that allows your organization (small or enterprise) to collaborate and manage files/tasks/projects together. With almost endless ways to customize your sites you can do so many cool things with Sharepoint - from creating a Teams group where you keep your files and chat with colleagues to creating a whole Intranet web for your organization. ----- ### "Helps Centralize Information and Improve Productivity" — 4.0/5 > **Victoria** | *June 13, 2026* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: MS SharePoint has powerful document management capabilities. There is version control, file sharing, permission manager, and cloud storage which helps with collaboration in work. You can also create shared workspaces which keeps things organized and you can keep track of different projects. MS SharePoint can also support employee management process through internal communication sites and team portals. They have customer support available, can sometimes take long to respond but helpful for me in the end. > > **Cons**: The user interface can sometimes be a little complex and overwhelming, especially for new users. There is a lot of capability to customize things but that is also what makes it difficult to work with, you'll need to train on it or have some technical expertise to navigate it. > > MS SharePoint is a good tool to help organizations improve collaboration, streamline document management, help employee engagement and track projects. Although there is a learning curve to it and a complex interface, it provides a lot of customization to your business needs. If you already have other MS products, this is worth the money. ----- ### "Decent tool for team work." — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *July 31, 2026* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The best thing of SharePoint is it's document management handling. It helps in keeping files organized in folders in one place. It also works great in management of employees by providing them the access of documents or work related updates. Also it's feature of communication made my work easier as it makes easy to share updates or projects in no time. > > **Cons**: The user interface feels confusing at times, specially it might intimidate the new users. I personally found it difficult to locate some basic features. Also the customer service never stood up to my expectations while assisting with some complex issues . > > All in all my experience with SharePoint is neither bad nor very great. It's been an average tool for me specifically, but the thing to be appreciated here is that it definitely offers the features that are great to use for everyday work and that too at a very reasonable value of money. ----- ### "SharePoint in the Workplace" — 5.0/5 > **Samm** | *March 23, 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. ----- Page: 1 / 220\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/1167/sharepoint?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/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
