Microsoft SharePoint is a digital platform that helps departments or groups organize, store, and share information or documents within said groups. It serves as a central hub where employees can collaborate on documents, manage projects, and access important files securely, making teamwork more efficient and streamlined. Every Team or Microsoft group that's created automatically comes with a SharePoint site for file management.
