Top Reasons for SharePoint Failure
April 14, 2014
While SharePoint is one of the most widely adopted platforms in history, it is also one of the biggest risks. SharePoint implementations can fail, most often from lack of use. CMS Wire tackles the topic in their article, “4 Common Reasons SharePoint Projects Fail.”
The article begins:
“One of the first things I do is ask why employees aren’t using their current SharePoint implementation. You need to understand all the reasons why to take steps to mitigate that from happening again. I usually get a range of responses. This definitely isn’t an exhaustive list, but rather some of the most common explanations that I hear.”
The author then goes on to list the top four reasons: 1) lack of vision, 2) lack of time and resources, 3) lack of user buy-in, and 4) inadequate user training. And while there are many factors contributing to failure, the good news is that these are recoverable errors. Stephen E. Arnold gives a lot of attention to SharePoint on his Web service, ArnoldIT.com. He uses his longstanding expertise to share the latest SharePoint tips and tricks, including add-ons and third party solutions that can help organizations recover from some of the failures mentioned above.
