SHAREPOINT: 4 BENEFITS OF INTRANET IN MICROSOFT OFFICE 365

Are you looking for a modern intranet for your organization? Then Microsoft Sharepoint Online is your best choice. With SharePoint you work modern and securely in the cloud and you have access to your digital information provision anytime and anywhere. SharePoint was launched by Microsoft to provide organizations with a secure online workplace  , improve collaboration within organizations and get more out of office automation . SharePoint is part of Office 365. Are you curious about the benefits for your organization with SharePoint Design.

SHAREPOINT: WHAT IS IT AND WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH IT?

SharePoint is a cloud-based intranet environment that enables organizations to securely exchange and communicate digital information. With SharePoint you can exchange all possible file types, manage projects, agendas and to-dos, prepare business intelligence reports and communicate securely and clearly with colleagues.

SharePoint has many functionalities, which means that the possibilities cannot be summed up in one explanation. In that respect, SharePoint is comparable to a computer: you cannot explain in one sentence what it is and what you can do with it. And that doesn't matter: after all, one uses a computer to write texts, the other to watch Netflix and another to design illustrations. 

In short: the computer has endless possibilities, but the only thing that matters to the user is the specific application for which he uses the computer. The same goes for SharePoint: the way you use SharePoint determines what SharePoint means to you.

THE MOST IMPORTANT SOLUTIONS THAT SHAREPOINT OFFERS YOU...

• - Safe storage of digital files and information within an organization
• - Exchanging digital files and information with colleagues
• - Managing projects, to-do's and agenda management

SHAREPOINT AS STORAGE ENVIRONMENT

The information you store using SharePoint is divided into so-called libraries, also known as libraries . This does not only concern documents created in Microsoft Office, but all possible digital files. So also videos, photos and other files and documents.

SHAREPOINT AS A CENTRAL COMMUNICATION ENVIRONMENT

SharePoint Online isn't just a storage environment like OneDrive is. SharePoint is above all and above all a communication environment. This of course starts with the exchange of digital information, but SharePoint also makes it possible to communicate with members within an organization through forums, polls, agendas and to-dos.

In short: SharePoint is an internal collaboration platform where you can securely store, share and manage digital information, files and projects.

THE BENEFITS OF SHAREPOINT

FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION

Although SharePoint has limitless possibilities, you are not forced to use them all. For example, a significant portion of SharePoint users rely solely on the platform's storage and sharing capabilities. You can also choose what you prefer to use SharePoint for.

Would you like to know what SharePoint can do for you? Then ask yourself the following question:

What problems and challenges do I experience in the field of information and communication technology (ICT) and how could Sharepoint solve those problems?

Of course we at Aspect ICT are ready to answer that question together with you. We have years of experience with consultancy in the field of ICT and are happy to help you. 

ADVANTAGE 1. ONE DIGITAL INTRANET FOR YOUR ENTIRE ORGANIZATION

The power of SharePoint is that it offers a solution for organizational challenges in the ICT field. SharePoint aims to streamline and simplify digital collaboration within your company. This gives your organization one centralized digital platform that all your employees have access to.

ADVANTAGE 2. WORK FASTER AND MORE EFFICIENTLY WITH THE SHAREPOINT ALL-IN-ONE SOLUTION

SharePoint is an ideal platform to manage digital content within your organization. You may now have employees who store files in the cloud or on their hard drive, and then email them to colleagues when they want to share those files. That requires quite a bit of work: first save the file, then open the mail, then add the file as an attachment, then send the file.

Thanks to SharePoint, you make all those intermediate steps superfluous: your employees work online within the Office 365 environment, which also includes SharePoint. The result? A comprehensive online Document Management System (DMS) for your organization. Sharing, editing and managing is done with a click of the mouse. No more time-consuming e-mail traffic, no more lost files, no different versions of the same document. And you also have the freedom to choose who in your organization has access to which  libraries  or which file.

ADVANTAGE 3. WORK ANYWHERE, ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, SECURELY IN THE CLOUD

A big advantage of SharePoint is that it is located in the cloud. That's why SharePoint is accessible to anyone with login credentials anytime, anywhere. Regardless of where or when. Extremely useful when your employees are on the road, working from home or at another hub.

ADVANTAGE 4. OPTIMAL INSIGHT THANKS TO INTEGRATED BUSINESS ANALYSES

You may spend a lot of time preparing BI reports and business analytics. With SharePoint, that is a thing of the past, because SharePoint combines data from various sources and brings it together in one report. This is done through technical integration in Microsoft Office, but also in Microsoft Access and other systems that are built on SQL. In Jip and Janneke language: it is possible to link almost all data from other programs to SharePoint and to combine them into one clear report.
