Sharepoint

SharePoint was created by Microsoft in 2001 as a platform for document management and collaboration. It evolved from earlier Microsoft technologies, aiming to improve team productivity by providing tools for sharing information and managing content within organizations.

Strengths of SharePoint include robust document management, seamless integration with Microsoft Office, and strong collaboration features. Weaknesses include a steep learning curve and high implementation costs. Competitors of SharePoint are Google Workspace, Dropbox Business, and Box.

A SharePoint expert must have skills in SharePoint administration, site customization, workflow development, and integration with Microsoft Office. Proficiency in PowerShell scripting, knowledge of SharePoint Designer, and experience with SQL Server and Active Directory are also essential.
