Organizations use Microsoft SharePoint to create websites. You can use it as a secure place to store, organize, share, and access information from any device. All you need is a web browser, such as Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Chrome, or Firefox. SharePoint is a web-based platform that enables users to create, organize, share, and collaborate on various types of content, such as documents, lists, tasks, and calendars. It serves as a centralized hub, fostering collaboration and streamlining business processes within an organization.

It allows companies to automate business processes, track progress, and securely share information across departments (or even externally). Depending on the business, companies can use SharePoint as a document management system, collaboration software, intranet, or extranet.
