Pros

“As an IT Professional managing infrastructure and productivity tools for a mid-sized company, SharePoint (as part of Microsoft 365) has become our central hub for document storage, team collaboration, intranets, and business processes.”
JB

Joe B.

IT Systems Specialist

“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.”
VT

Victoria T.

Self-Employed

“It has helped improve collaboration across teams and departments by ensuring information is stored in a single location and is easily accessible when needed. While there can be a learning curve when first using the platform and SharePoint becomes a very useful resource once you get used to using it more.”
JV

Jordan V.

Sales Specialist

Pros

“I figure that this system could save me time and facilitate several functions with my clients, just as they advertised using the testimony of the attorney.”
RR

Robert R.

CPA

“Overall, SmartVault provided me a simplified and secure way to store, transfer, and manage documents in a way that felt intuitive and convenient.”

Cons

“The learning curve can be pretty steep, especially when it comes to managing permissions and site structure. If it isn't set up properly from the start, the search function can get cluttered quickly, making it tricky to find specific files.”
CD

Callum D.

Social Media Marketer

“We also have frequent issues with users who upload a new profile photo to the directory taking several days to sync and eventually show up throughout Sharepoint.”
CW

Clyde W.

System Administrator

“There is a limited amount of page layouts which means it is not possible to make optimal use of the screen real estate and users need to scroll.”

Adam M.

Senior Technical Writer

Cons

“It didn't have the capability to communicate tasks or requests (back and forth) to the customer, like a portal could.”
TB

Tatsiana B.

Owner

“The cost is also a bit ridiculous because I only needed one license, but they make you buy two licenses.”

“They don't provide a user guide that you could use for a quick reference.”
