Microsoft SharePoint is a web-based collaborative platform that allows you to store, manage and share your documents from any device. “Over 190 million users across 200,000 organizations are using SharePoint.”
Why not join them?
SharePoint features
Here are just some of the features SharePoint has to offer:
Document Sharing
Give your business a single place to store all its documents – a place where your team can easily find and edit files, collaborate and see who’s working on what.
Integration with Office apps
Documents stored in SharePoint can be edited in place, without having to download and re-upload. Word, Excel etc can all be opened straight from the browser and saved seamlessly when you’ve finished editing. Even if you’re on a mobile device, and even if you lose internet connection – SharePoint will synch up once you’re online again.
Built-in apps
SharePoint has 16 pages full of exciting built-in apps for its users. Why use multiple external apps for your daily operations when SharePoint has it all in one place?
Create secure Intranets
Organise your business information along with your documents in a well-structured internal web site for your employees, or an extranet site accessible to your business partners. Lock down security permissions to sub-sites or individual pages, so your documents and information are restricted to the users who need them.
Share contracts to be signed
If you’re still emailing contracts back and forth for others to sign, SharePoint can offer a much simpler and quicker solution – Adobe Sign is a feature within SharePoint Online that allows you to send documents from your library to be signed electronically by the receiver right away.
Top Business Benefits of SharePoint
1. Increased productivity through workflow automation
SharePoint administrators can use Microsoft Flow and PowerApps to create automated workflows between apps and services, such as getting push notifications when selected files are updated or when emails from a particular sender have arrived.
SharePoint gives employees the ability to access and modify documents from any device, at any time, and the ability to collaborate with ease. Offering a simple structured way of finding any document that can be read/edited on any device will ensure productivity increases.
2. Enable better-informed decisions
With the use of integrated business intelligence capabilities, such as dashboards, Web Parts, App Parts, and Power BI. Interactive reports are created to offer live business information for smart decision making.
3. More manageable security on a single platform
Hosting company data in a single, integrated platform reduces the vulnerability to holes, leaks or attacks across multiple applications. IT teams can focus SharePoint’s security strategy to protect the environment against security threats. Internal policies and access permissions of each site, library and list can be easily managed under the Admin Centre.
