SharePoint

SharePoint

SharePoint is a Microsoft product that helps departments, teams and other work groups share, manage, and store information. It can be used to create websites, intranets, and internal applications, and to implement business processes. SharePoint is also a collaboration tool that allows multiple people to work simultaneously on documents and share information with their team. It's similar to a hard drive in the cloud that can be shared.

Features

  • A SharePoint site provides a document library which serves as a centralized spot for storing documents and other files. Users don't have to keep copies on their individual computers.
  • Site members can create, edit, and save files in a document library collaboratively. Files can be edited in real-time by multiple users at once.
  • SharePoint sites can have different permission levels, so an administrator can control who has access to what. For example, some users may only be able to read files, while others can edit them.
  • SharePoint provides version control, which allows users to track changes made to documents and recover previous versions if necessary.
  • Files stored on SharePoint can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection. Files can also be synced to a computer for offine access using the OneDrive desktop application.
