Pros and cons
What SharePoint does especially well — and the limits to anticipate.
Pros
- Structured file sharing
- Integration with office suites
- More robust access control than a simple link
Cons
- Frequent overlap with other cloud spaces
- Costs tied to licenses or storage
- Governance needed to avoid sprawl
SharePoint: when it makes sense.
Keep SharePoint if it is the official file system, not one more storage space.
Keep if
The tool is already a system of record in the organization. Several teams depend on synchronized data
Challenge if
Occasional use or curiosity only. The process is still manageable with a lighter tool
