Is SharePoint a reall CLM solution?
About 64% of our new clientele is coming either from SharePoint, Box or other similar cloud based "repository" solutions only because they eventually understand that they don't get what they wish for when it comes to managing their contracts and related documents. It is important to highlight this issue in order to try and prevent other legal counsels and IT managers to do the same mistake decision makers in other companies do when using SharePoint/Box or other "document applications" alternatives as their CLM solution.
Why did our customers who tried to use SP as their CLM system preferred to move to opensourceCM?
Here are some authentic testimonials and solid reasons that:
- Your users (especially non-technical users) will hate using it or will refuse to use it because it feels clunky and complicated.
- It is extremely hard to find relevant information.
- It wants to do everything and does nothing really well (except for document management, maybe).
- There are no reminders abilities to let you about meaningful event related to contracts
- SharePoint costs a lot - hardware, software, 3rd party solutions, consultants, maintenance, and support. Everything costs a bunch. ROI is incredible, but SP really demands heavy investments to be made.
- SharePoint is not simple. It means if the organization is not prepared, and your consultants are weak, you can forget about ROI.
- It takes huge amounts of resources from IT to set up and maintain.
- You will probably need to pay expensive SharePoint consultants to implement or maintain it.
- The release cycles are slow. Upgrades are painful.
