Is it for me?

In recent years, SharePoint has become an integral component of core Microsoft 365 services, including Groups and Teams. SharePoint, however, is still a powerful product in its own right. We see customers using SharePoint to address many common use cases. These use cases often involve collaboration around documents and list data, publishing content to a broad audience, managing specific organisational processes or providing formal document management capabilities.

For some organisations, the move to Microsoft Teams is not a clear-cut decision, often due to existing non-Microsoft meeting and messaging solutions. If you don’t deploy Teams, but still require a versatile collaboration platform, SharePoint is an obvious choice.

You may belong to an organisation which has no plans for Microsoft 365, but you’re interested in deploying SharePoint on-premises instead. Don’t worry, we can definitely help there too.

With so many complementary, and similar services available in Microsoft 365, it can also be difficult to see where SharePoint fits within your overall strategy, be it intranet, extranet, collaboration or document management. yoko:10’s SharePoint Planning engagement allows you to define:

• The SharePoint features and functionality relevant to you, and how these are commonly used.
• Use cases, supported by SharePoint, specific to your organisation and sector.
• Clear messaging, policy, and guidance about how SharePoint will be used.
• Security and governance requirements, ensuring SharePoint files and data are correctly managed and protected.
• A structured plan for deploying and managing SharePoint, and on-boarding employees.

Why yoko:10?
