Benefits of automation using SharePoint

– Unstructured documents: The lack of structure makes it difficult for users to find what they need quickly and efficiently. Thus, SharePoint comes into play as it helps them organize their data in a way that makes sense for them.

– Legacy systems: Legacy systems often require manual intervention from employees who work on them, which is not only tiring but also inefficient. To avoid this problem, SharePoint comes into play as it allows users to create templates that automate common tasks such as creating new documents or updating existing ones automatically based on predefined conditions (e.g., date range).

Reasons for Automation

–  Data entry errors have enormous consequences. They can lead to critical downtime and affect revenue.

– There are some drawbacks to the current process for creating and sending out documents: time is wasted going through different processes to get a document drafted, approved, and delivered. Documents can take as long as a week or two to be ready—that’s just not fast enough for today’s businesses.

–  Failure to comply with organization guidelines on document generation is a serious matter. 

Advantages of Sharepoint include;

Fair Cost

 The cost of SharePoint for a small business is affordable. Though it may seem like a big expense at first, it’s really not—especially if you’re buying into features that will make your life easier in the long run.

Easy Integration

SharePoint can be used by both internal and external users to create content such as documents, presentations, spreadsheets, databases and many more. It has a built-in search engine which allows users to find documents easily through keywords or phrases. It also provides collaboration features that allow multiple users to collaborate on a document at once without any difficulty in accessing it. This means that SharePoint is suitable for small business owners who need a platform to manage their business processes efficiently without any cost associated with it.

Limited Training Needed

 When the software was released, most of the employees were familiar with it, so there was no need for training. This allowed the business to start seeing benefits much faster than if they had to spend time teaching everyone how to use the software.

Dynamic Application

 The tool can be used in a variety of ways by different enterprises, depending on their purpose. For example, medical health providers can use it to handle patient records, financial institutions can use it for processing loan agreements and legal service providers can generate contracts using the same tool.

The tool is also customizable. Enterprises can customize the use to suit their purpose.
