Key Findings
Adoption
- Adoption Issues and Forward Strategy 26% of respondents report that their SharePoint project has stalled, and 37% have struggled to meet their original expectations, a total of 63% with suboptimum installations. 37% are moving forward, but only 11% feel their project has been a success.
- A failure of senior management to endorse and enforce SharePoint was the biggest reason for lack of success, followed by inadequate user training and a general lack of planning. User resistance and a lack of investment and expertise are also quoted.
- 53% are still seeing an increase in active users. 23% have reached an adoption plateau, or are facing user adoption issues (15%). Only 3% have reducing numbers.
- The key lessons learned are don’t leave it to IT – form a SharePoint steering group. Be sure to understand the implications of metadata and taxonomy. 50% suggest building an IG policy first and then matching it to SharePoint.
- 25% are committed to building their ECM, RM and collaboration around SharePoint. For 22% it remains their ECM system of choice for the foreseeable future, and 28% will stick to it for the next few years – in total, 75% remain committed. Only 8% are looking elsewhere right now.
- At 42%, SharePoint 2010 is still the most popular live version. 22% are live on 2013. Regarding cloud, 6% are live on 365/Online, with 18% rolling out.
Cloud
- 43% are happy with Microsoft’s product roadmap, but 49% are concerned about loss of focus on the on-prem version. 20% feel SharePoint is under threat from more modern cloud systems. Lack of mobile support and difficult external access has frustrated 35%.
- For the future, 34% plan to move to SharePoint 365/Online for all (7%), most (10%), or some (17%) of their content. Of the remainder, 15% plan to use private cloud (11% as hybrid), 14% will stay on-prem, and 36% are undecided. This represents a near doubling of cloud intentions since our last survey in 2013.
Add On Products
- 15% use standard out-of-the-box SharePoint, and 39% have only limited customization. A third use in-house or externally developed customization, and 36% use third party add-on products.
- Workflow and BPM is the most popular add-on, followed by metadata and taxonomy management, collaboration tools, search enhancement and Outlook integration. Migration tools and system health monitoring are also popular.
- Only 7% currently have automated or assisted classification, but a further 28% plan to implement in the next 12 to 18 months. Along with data clean-up tools, and digital signatures, this is by far the biggest rate of increase across add-on products.
Integration
- Only 14% have SharePoint connected to other ECM/DM systems. 13% have connections to the CRM/Service Desk, and 12% to project management systems. Less than 10% have connections to ERP or Finance systems.
- 15% use SharePoint as their search and access portal across other repositories, but 44% are planning to go that way. Aligning governance, security and metadata is given as the biggest problem.
Information Governance
- For 23%, SharePoint can match their records management needs (with careful set up), 15% are using specialist customization, and 16% use 3rd party add-ons. 17% have a dedicated RM system but most (12%) are not connected to SP. 29% do not differentiate between records and other content.
- 48% still have work to do to align SharePoint with their IG policies, and 19% are not aligned at all. The biggest misalignments are with legal discovery, metadata and retention/disposition.
Spend
- Many of our respondents expect to spend more on SP Online/365 licenses, and on mobile deployment. A small number expect to increase spend on training and professional services – despite the good intentions expressed regarding re-energizing projects.
- A strong net demand is indicated across a wide range of third-party add-ons, including site governance and monitoring, records management, BPM, digital signatures, connectivity, cleanup and auto-classify.
