Microsoft SharePoint Features and Benefits

1. Multi-purpose functionality built in

The greatest of all the SharePoint benefits is its flexibility. The collaborative platform serves as an intranet, which is simply a company’s internal website for information sharing, task scheduling, contacts, and much more.

Administrators can assign different permission levels depending on the users status. Beyond that, the software has functions for document sharing, file management, social networking, business information, and virtually everything else involved in the day-to-day operations of your business.

2. Centralized administration

Ease of management is one of the most significant SharePoint 2010 benefits. Administrators can quickly access operation features, including security settings, coll, back up sites and site data, perform restorations, and update privileges all on a single dashboard.

3. Customizable

You can keep the default online SharePoint features and benefits, or you can tailor them to your business needs.

Your team will have the ability to build custom elements in each of the Microsoft SharePoint features. You can similarly customize the entire application’s interface to reflect your branding and improve employees’ perceptive experience with the app through the drag and drop functions.

4. Document management and collaboration

Microsoft SharePoint 2013 makes it possible to organize your company’s information in an accessible manner. The central benefits of SharePoint include a streamlined flow of information and cloud storage that can be accessed by mobile devices.

Informed employees make better decisions, meet deadlines, understand the shared business strategy, and contribute better to it. File sharing on SharePoint is done by a simple click or touch of a button. Yes, mobility is one of the numerous benefits of SharePoint 2013.

5. Site consolidation

You can integrate all your sites (shared work environments) into one platform and slash down the costs of a siloed site administration. The consolidation of the internet and intranet sites makes it easily accessible and managed by internal teams.

6. Integration with your existing apps

Microsoft SharePoint offers a seamless integration with the rest of your business applications. The product will work seamlessly with your Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, and PowerPoint), MS Exchange Server, MS Unified Communications, ERP, CRM, and many other back-office systems and previous versions.

For SharePoint Online, compatibility is not limited to Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer; SharePoint also works well with all modern web browsers.

7. Enhanced security

SharePoint 2013 benefits include advanced security features that reduce the risk of outages and unauthorized access. These features include new workflow upgrades and authentication enhancements. As much as information access and shareability are optimized, your data integrity remains reliable. Other security configurations and access/editing privileges can be set at the document or item level.

The collaboration application similarly promises improved security for organizations that handle sensitive data. You can configure different settings for controlling shareability, storage, and auditing to help expedite compliance with your industry’s regulatory requirements on data security.

8. Ease of use and design assistance

You won’t need to hire a team of web developers to improve your website or create database management systems because the Microsoft SharePoint 2010 features and benefits include the ability to build solutions that better meet your business needs.

SharePoint Online and SharePoint Server have the application programming interfaces (APIS) for such jobs. Using SharePoint development features for app building is an excellent way to cut costs.
