What is SharePoint and what is it for?<\/h2>\n

SharePoint: Document Manager and more<\/h3>\n

Microsoft SharePoint<\/strong> is known by many as Microsoft's tool for advanced document management and teamwork. It allows you to create private and secure internal and external websites where you can store, organise, edit and share information, from anywhere and on any device.
\nBut SharePoint<\/strong> goes beyond being a document management platform, it is an integral work tool, perfect for creating a corporate Intranet, thanks to its important advantages:<\/p>\n

– Simple and intuitive interface<\/strong> and adapted to all types of devices. SharePoint is easy to use and can be accessed from any fixed computer (PC and Mac) and mobile device (tablets and smartphones).<\/p>\n

– Personalisation<\/strong> with the company's image: SharePoint allows you to customise the design of the sites to match the company's corporate identity: logo, colours, fonts, styles...<\/p>\n

– Integration with all Microsoft applications<\/strong>. As it is within Office 365,<\/strong> integrates seamlessly with:<\/p>\n

o All the Office 365 package: Word, Excel, Access, Power Point...<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

o Azure, Microsoft's cloud<\/strong> and One Drive. We can synchronise in such a way that documents can be worked on locally, uploaded and synchronised.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

o Microsoft Teams<\/strong>The software for group chats, which enables real-time communication within SharePoint.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

o Microsoft Power BI,<\/strong> a business intelligence tool that allows in-depth analysis of business data to extract valuable information to help in decision-making.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

o PowerApps<\/strong>to create applications.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

o Microsoft Flow,<\/strong> to create customised workflows that improve and automate processes.<\/p>\n

– Collaborative platform<\/strong>SharePoint is a collaboration and communication platform, which allows effective teamwork, sharing all kinds of documents and tasks. It is a web-based service, it works through the browser. It allows you to create a corporate site, Intranet, for all members of the company to work, which can be organised in different ways. In addition, web applications can be created for the different departments of the company and external sites, extranets, for clients and\/or suppliers, who have to interact with the company through workflows or other collaboration mechanisms.<\/p>\n

– Version Control:<\/strong> SharePoint works with content libraries, which are repositories of information. In addition to storing documents (invoices, delivery notes, quotes, reports, presentations, etc.), it allows you to edit them online, with Office 365 applications: Word, Excel, Power Point, etc. The programme automatically saves the changes and the user's record. Users have different permissions: read-only, write (editing), etc. Thanks to the version history of each document, we can know who has modified it and when, and recover old versions. Sharepoint provides the added value of providing a history of data and metadata about the files we work with.<\/p>\n

– Alerts<\/strong>The alerts functionality is also very interesting. SharePoint allows us to create alerts when a document in the library is modified and so the programme alerts us when a user is modifying it.<\/p>\n

– Enterprise Search Engine<\/strong>SharePoint includes a very powerful search engine: Enterprise Search and all search results are organised by sites, files and contacts (users).<\/p>\n

– Document Upload:<\/strong> SharePoint can connect to a variety of data sources, allowing documents to be uploaded or uploaded in a variety of ways:<\/p>\n
