SharePoint is a document management platform that is web based. SharePoint allows those using the platform the control who can access what information. It’s a highly flexible system mainly used to store documents and communicate important information through the business.

With SharePoint, those who have access can create an internal internet system, that functions like any other website. Different components can be created for specific departments or teams in the business. This allows for a secure space that users can access, share an edit different documents accordingly.  Other features include:

  • There’s a content management feature that helps to maintain organisation of libraries and important records.
