Benefits and Limitations of Microsoft SharePoint
SharePoint has been widely adopted for its document archive, workflow, and search features.
Its users benefit from a robust community for support and third-party applications. But it
also places limitations on
- speed of data transfer
- size of files
- number of files
- size of content repository
In addition, SharePoint offers limited options for the storage backend.
