About Microsoft SharePoint
SharePoint is Microsoft's content and collaboration platform for organizations. Teams use it to securely store, organize, and share files, build team sites and intranet portals, and manage documents and knowledge in one place. It works alongside the rest of Microsoft 365 — Teams, Word, Excel, and Copilot — so content stays connected to where people already work.
