I hear people from around the globe, complain about SharePoint that it doesn’t do this, or we thought it did that.

Digital Transformation | Paperless Office
Simplicity is an undervalued commodity of modern business, and as seen through efforts to purge paper processes, simplicity has the potential to add real value to many organizations. Efforts to drive out paper are an essential foundation to creating a more simplified, user-friendly, and changeable enterprise, but these efforts must be supported by business technology, process, and leadership, which advocate the same. Most importantly, our mindset needs to change. Simplicity is often synonymous with lesser value. Often complex functionality is what attracts senior management interest and investment dollars to the cause; complex solutions take space at the head of board meetings, while simple solutions often only find room at the kids' table.

Enterprise File Sync and Share (EFSS)
Let's take a look at the policy environment (or lack thereof) that surrounds how most organizations use sync and share technologies. File sync and share are on the rise, yet there is still a cultural challenge and user reluctance slowing organizations from moving in this direction. While there are proven technologies available, 29% of our respondents cite concerns over security and unauthorized access to their information as a big challenge in implementing a file sync and share solution. For 19%, the challenge they face is a lack of understanding the full benefits file sync and share can bring to their organization, and for 20%, it is the cultural challenge related to change management, combining a lack of management support (12%), and user reluctance (8%).
