SharePoint Development Company in Perth Explains the Benefits of SharePoint for SMEs

PERTH, Australia - Oct. 27, 2017 - PRLog -- SharePoint development company DBS IT Australia has a reputation for providing tailored SharePoint solutions to businesses of all sizes. But as the company has revealed, SharePoint is particularly beneficial for SMEs and growing businesses.

It may be easy to assume that SharePoint is only for the big boys, with 80% of Fortune 500 companies using Microsoft SharePoint. But according to a spokesperson from DBS IT Australia, the benefits of SharePoint are not just accessible cost-wise, but the system delivers real value for teams both large and small.

"SharePoint was traditionally used as an Intranet by large companies. But it delivers much more than this, especially for businesses who use it as part of their Office 365 ecosystem. One of the biggest reasons to think about using SharePoint? Teams can collaborate like never before. Whether in the office or on-the-go, multiple employees can work on documents at the same time, while changes are seen in real-time," the spokesperson said.

These days, businesses can no longer afford to keep their data solely on desktops. Along with the threat of cyberattacks, data leaks, and system crashes, this makes it difficult to know who has the most up-to-date version of a document.

Instead, documents uploaded to SharePoint are kept in the cloud. That means team members can save and access their documents whenever they like, from any device. This is similar to OneDrive, however SharePoint allows employees to manage documents, files, and ideas through a range of tools, including wikis, workflows, calendars, task lists, document libraries, and more. They can also grant permissions at folder or project levels, improving security and keeping everyone continually updated.

"Businesses are now realising just how much time is wasted due to team members emailing back and forth each day. Employees get stuck managing their inboxes, and emails inevitably get lost. SharePoint allows you to create a portal so you can share emails within your business. That means that the most up-to-date versions of files and emails are always in one location, so everyone is on the same page and staff won't act on out-of-date information/data," the spokesperson said.

SMEs are faced with the dilemma of effectively managing their products. Business owners understand that poor project management leads to poor performance and disorganised work. SharePoint users can organise calendars that integrate with outlook, generate Gantt charts, and make to-do lists for tasks necessary for the completion of the project. Team members can easily amend, add, and review items.

For businesses hoping to move the needle in 2018, SharePoint is a no-brainer. But smart implementation is key. The value of SharePoint can be seen with improved productivity and communications, resulting in growth and sales. Not to mention, the workload and time savings and cost reductions you'll see- allowing you to get ahead of the competition.
