FAQ

SharePoint Intranet FAQs

SharePoint and an intranet differ significantly in terms of functionality and user experience.

SharePoint, primarily a document management and collaboration platform, offers extensive intranet capabilities but often faces challenges with complexity and user accessibility. On the other hand, a modern intranet like Simpplr is designed to be an easy-to-manage intranet solution that simplifies communication, enhances employee engagement, and requires minimal IT involvement.

While SharePoint provides robust features for document sharing and team collaboration, it may be overwhelming for organizations seeking a straightforward, user-friendly platform. Simpplr addresses this by delivering a streamlined, intuitive experience, eliminating the typical intranet complexity associated with SharePoint. This distinction is crucial for companies looking to implement an effective modern intranet that employees will actively use and engage with.

Deploying a SharePoint intranet is not a straightforward task requiring significant customization and technical expertise, making it difficult to create an intuitive and user-friendly environment. Additionally, the platform’s intricate settings and configurations can lead to administrative headaches, overshadowing its potential benefits.

Unlike Simpplr’s modern intranet solution, which prioritizes simplicity and ease of management, SharePoint demands ongoing maintenance and a steep learning curve for seamless operation. These factors contribute to the complexity and highlight the need for a more accessible, easy-to-manage intranet that empowers employees and enhances productivity without overwhelming IT resources.

While it is best to replace SharePoint intranet with Simpplr because of all the disadvantages that SharePoint intranet presents, replacing an intranet is not easy for large organizations and enterprises where SharePoint holds a lot of historical documents and information.

Hence, Simpplr integrates well with SharePoint and other Microsoft products, allowing organizations to leverage SharePoint’s file management capabilities while using Simpplr as the primary intranet interface.

By integrating SharePoint with Simpplr, your organization can maintain SharePoint as your file management system while providing a unified and user-friendly interface through Simpplr for improved content accessibility and collaboration.

SharePoint’s intranet often involves significant building and customization costs, typically managed by internal IT teams, which can make it expensive and resource-intensive.

In contrast, Simpplr offers more predictable pricing based on the number of users and provides discounted rates for organizations with 500 or more employees. This makes Simpplr a cost-effective and flexible alternative, ideal for businesses looking to streamline their intranet solutions without incurring high development costs.
