Introduction
Microsoft SharePoint gives users a web based platform to create: intranet, portals, document and file management, collaboration, websites, business intelligence and much more. The process of using SharePoint within the Exchange, Teams and Microsoft 365 is seamless. SharePoint Sites provides a single infrastructure for all your business Web sites. Share documents with colleagues, manage projects with partners, and publish information to customers.
