Comment on Isn't OneDrive/Sharepiont the exact OPPOSITE of a shared drive?

  You don’t need to reimplement SharePoint, just to use different processes and tools.

  That said, if you are happy, that’s absolutely fine. I luckily don’t use it. It’s there, someone try to put there some document because “we paid millions for it” (I don’t know if they really did…), after a few frustrating loop of the crappy check in/check out broken system most people give up. I don’t even need to complain. It’s sufficient to wait a couple of weeks and someone else will, no one will find any benefit, and at the end it will completely dropped. Until someone remember how much we paid for it, and will try again.

  I call it “the cycle of corporate hype”

    You just keep handwaivng away costs. Using other tools costs money. Using SharePoint in you m365 subscription for all intent and purposes is free cause you sure as hell are paying for office.

      I don’t care of the cost, people who push it do. They waste money in a million of way in consultant and tools and servers and concepts and stuff I have no idea. I am sure some mckinsey, KPMG, accenture, ibm consultant knows why everything useless is so expensive. I usually don’t care. 9/10 of the money spent by my company is wasted, but somehow they manages to do profit. Which is fine. We have been doing cost cutting for few years now, still the amount of money wasted is crazy
