SharePoint is essentially collaboration tool. It is one of the fastest selling products by Microsoft. SharePoint is essentially an enterprise information portal which can be configured to manage Intranet, Extranet and portals. Microsoft SharePoint allows employees, teams and others to collaborate and implement business process seamlessly and efficiently.

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server is a powerful server based solution which facilitates collaboration and implementation of business processes within the organization. SharePoint provides a full set of features for managing content and provides access to critical data for organizations.

Though Microsoft SharePoint offers many advantages, here are the top six advantages of implementing SharePoint solutions for your organization.

1) Document management: in any organization, files and documents increase exponentially over a period of time. Managing and tracking documents is easy with SharePoint. It allows you to store files in one central location and facilitates sharing efficiently.

2) Sharing work files through email can be difficult and cumbersome. With SharePoint this becomes very easy as the files are stored in one location. Thus, enabling all team members to share and edit files.

3) Business Intelligence or BI as it popularly called all these years was concentrated in the the hands of a few in any organization. All the levels of an organization were not able to participate due many limitations. With the advent of SharePoint and addition of Performance Point, true sharing and collaboration among all levels within any organization has been made possible.

4) As Thomas Friedman said ‘The World Is Flat’. Nowadays, organizations are spread over different geographical locations across many time zones. Sharing and collaboration is needed within many departments, teams, vendors and customers. All this is not easily possible if we do not have a robust collaboration such as SharePoint. SharePoint solutions are really a boon in such situations where seamless and robust sharing and content management is needed along with flexibility and scalability.

5) There is a data & information overload. Everyday within any organization, even more data is created and consumed. Searching and retrieving data and relevant information can be a big waste of time and resources. With SharePoint, filing, searching and retrieving documents is a breeze. Reporting is made simple which assists a great deal in how business data is mined and presented to users.

6) Normally, creating and maintain sites is difficult, time consuming and expensive. SharePoint allows anyone to develop intranet sites for use within their organization. This eliminates the need to hire website development experts every time a site needs to be created. For example, discussion boards, survey sites and repositories can be easily created using SharePoint.

In this article we have just touched the tip of the iceberg. SharePoint is a one stop solution for sharing & collaboration needs of organizations of any size and industry.
