SharePoint Users Remain with Older Versions
October 9, 2014
Although SharePoint 2013 and Office 365 have been all the rage in the blogosphere, it turns out that a relatively large percentage of users remain with older versions of SharePoint. CMS Wire covers the phenomenon in their latest article, “SharePoint Users Stick with Older Versions, Eye Hybrid Cloud #SPTechCon.”
The article begins:
“When we caught up in Boston a year ago with SharePoint Technology Conference Chair David Rubinstein, SharePoint 2013, Office 365 capabilities and mobile were all the rage. Same conference, next year at the Boston Park Plaza hotel? The cloud. SharePoint Online. When’s the big move coming? The truth is, for most organizations — at least those among the 1,000 at the conference this week — they’re still flying in 2010 and even 2007 air space when it comes to SharePoint technology.”
Stephen E. Arnold devotes a lot of attention to SharePoint on his Web service, ArnoldIT.com. He reports that most users find SharePoint to be overwhelming and somewhat hard to navigate. It is no wonder that once an organization makes peace with its current implementation (no doubt costing considerable time and resources) they are less than eager to leave it behind for new features that may cause great headaches. His SharePoint feed provides a lot of tips, tricks, and news regarding SharePoint, and may be helpful for anyone considering making the upgrade leap.
