Microsoft® SharePoint® Tips and Tricks

Microsoft SharePoint gives your organization a central place to share information, manage documents and work together more efficiently. Whether employees work in the office, remotely or in a hybrid environment, SharePoint helps teams stay connected, reduce email overload and keep important information easy to find.  

But many users only scratch the surface of what SharePoint can do. 

From document libraries and lists to pages, news and team sites, SharePoint helps people organize work, share updates and collaborate on projects without drowning in email. When used effectively, SharePoint improves productivity, simplifies business processes, and helps teams work more efficiently across Microsoft Teams, OneDrive and the broader Microsoft 365 ecosystem.  

Still, many users only use SharePoint as a storage bin; and miss the time-saving tools hiding in plain sight.

What is Microsoft SharePoint used for?  

Microsoft SharePoint is a cloud-based platform for document management, team collaboration and internal communications. Teams use it to manage document libraries, publish news and updates, track tasks with SharePoint lists and automate workflows with Power Automate. Built-in version history and permission controls give teams full visibility and control over their content. As part of Microsoft 365, SharePoint connects directly with Microsoft Teams and OneDrive. 

What's the difference between SharePoint and Teams? 

Microsoft Teams is designed for communication and collaboration through chat, meetings, and conversations. SharePoint provides the underlying document management, file storage, intranet, and content management capabilities that many Teams workspaces rely on. Together, they create a powerful collaboration environment. 

When should I use SharePoint instead of OneDrive? 

Use SharePoint for files that belong to a team, department or project that multiple people need to access and maintain. Use OneDrive for personal files and individual drafts. SharePoint document libraries support co-authoring, version history and granular permission controls — making them the right choice for shared resources like templates, policies and project files. A simple rule: if more than one person owns it, it belongs in SharePoint. 

How can SharePoint help reduce email overload? 

SharePoint allows teams to share links instead of attachments, collaborate on a single version of a document, publish updates through pages and news posts, and keep project information centralized so important details don't get buried in email threads. 

What will I learn in this SharePoint Tips and Tricks webinar? 

You'll learn practical ways to organize document libraries, use version history, set permissions and share controls, using SharePoint lists for task tracking and connecting SharePoint with Microsoft Teams and OneDrive. 

The focus is on tools and techniques you can apply the same day.
