Microsoft SharePoint Reviews & Product Details

It’s easier to use than Access, and it’s convenient and customizable. It makes it simple to find a list of items. You can create different lists and then narrow those lists down in a way that makes sense to you. It also makes it easier for older people who grew up using Access to find the information they’re looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most challenging part for me has been attempting to integrate an Excel workbook, as I can only import one tab at a time. Additionally, it is necessary for the fields in SharePoint to match those in Excel, which adds another layer of difficulty. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A single pane of glass for communication and collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Native SharePoint workflows used to be very useful and convenient. Now Microsoft has shifted to Power Automate and other Power Platform tools, which you have to pay for. We used to be able to do much more with the native SharePoint workflows without any additional cost, but now it’s essentially the same capability under a new name—Power Automate—and you’re expected to pay for it. It feels like Microsoft started charging for something that was previously native to SharePoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think Microsoft Sharepoint is easier to use than using the shared drives on the organizations computers. I find that being able to open share point via both program and browser gives you two options to access, in case something is faulty. I personally like that I can open share point in the web browser and find the interface easier and the performance is faster to use than using the microsoft apps.

I do not like that the Microsoft Sharepoint homepage is hard to navigate to. I also dont like how you have to be an owner in a group sharepoint in order to edit documents uploaded to a group sharepoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The SharePoint page development tool is very user-friendly, and there are templates for almost everything. You no longer need to be an expert to build pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SharePoint templates for internal communications still needs a few more options. It would be simpler to use brand templates, and AI integration would also help streamline the process and save time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s very easy to download files and share them across our organization. When I need to access something for training purposes, or to learn how to format specific communications or writing, anyone can highlight the relevant files and I can find them quickly. I can also share files for collaboration with team members who work in other locations or remotely, and I’m able to see their changes in real time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To be fair, I don’t like that I don’t have access to everything on SharePoint. Certain files and sections require specific permissions to view, and I sometimes can’t find the information I need because of that. It’s not really a SharePoint problem so much as a security/clearance issue. That said, I can see how this is a positive for organizations, since it helps limit who has access to what.

What I like best about Microsoft SharePoint is how it keeps everything organized and accessible in one place, documents, team updates, and workflows, so collaboration feels smooth instead of chaotic. It makes sharing and working on files with others really easy, especially within the Microsoft ecosystem, and helps ensure everyone is always on the same page without endless email threads.

What I don’t like about Microsoft SharePoint is that it can feel a bit complex and unintuitive, especially for new users, navigation isn’t always straightforward, and finding files can sometimes be frustrating. It can make you feel restrictive if you’re used to simpler or more flexible tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a comprehensive collaboration platform that excels as a "single source of truth" through the seamless integration within the M365 ecosystem, particularly Power BI data sources and Teams-based file sharing. It allows for efficient version control as well as advanced permission settings that allow many individuals to edit documents simultaneously without compromising the integrity of the information. It saves me time every day, making it effortless to manage master files and share updates with the team instantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The issue with the OneDrive sync utility is its reliability when dealing with large SharePoint document files. During the synchronisation process, I often encounter sync issues, such as "red X" errors, duplicate files, and conflicts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Microsoft SharePoint is how it centralises document management and collaboration in one secure platform. It makes sharing files and working on documents with multiple team members seamless, while maintaining version control and access permissions. The integration with Microsoft 365 apps, like Teams and Outlook, is very convenient and helps streamline workflows. I also appreciate its flexibility — it can be customised to support different teams, projects, and business processes, making it a powerful tool for both collaboration and knowledge management.

One drawback of Microsoft SharePoint is that it can feel complex and unintuitive for new users, especially when navigating document libraries or setting up sites. Customisation is powerful but often requires significant time or technical knowledge, which can be a barrier for smaller teams without dedicated support. Search functionality can also be inconsistent at times, making it harder to quickly find the right files. Overall, while it’s very capable, there can be a learning curve and some setup effort to get the most out of the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SharePoint has become my day-to-day place to store and organize files for my IT inventory and database. I feel secure keeping my working files on SharePoint, although there’s still room for improvement. Overall, it does the job it was designed for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The “Share” feature in SharePoint is my biggest issue. Sharing information between users inside or outside your organization can be tedious. I also dislike that, even though it’s an excellent repository for your files, it still has a rough learning curve if you want to get the best out of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Microsoft SharePoint is its ability to centralize documents, team collections, and business content in a single platform. It makes it easy to store, organize, share, and manage files securely across teams, while maintaining version control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside of Microsoft SharePoint is that it can have a steep learning curve, especially for new users and administrators. Setting up and managing permissions, site structure, and customizations can become complex, particularly in large organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
