What is SharePoint
SharePoint is a tool that helps teams work together and manage documents more easily. It allows you to create websites, share information and collaborate with others, making it easier to get things done and stay connected.
With SharePoint, you can improve teamwork and simplify your work processes:
- Store and organise documents in a secure, centralised location
- Collaborate with your team in real-time on projects and tasks
- Create team sites to help share and organise resources
- Automate tasks to save time and improve efficiency
