communication with various third-parties, such as banks and state and local government agencies.

The End
► For 23% of respondents, all of their office staff actively access SharePoint. This is set to double in the next 12 months
► 12% are hosting more than 1,000 team sites, with 11% adding more than 25 team sites a month
► Collaboration is the most popular application, followed closely by document management and file-share replacement. Portals and intranets are the next most popular usage.
► A third of implementing organizations have no plans as to where, and where not, to use► SharePoint, suggesting a lack of management direction. 26% reported that the IT
department is driving the project with no input from information management professionals.
► Team site sprawl, with no policy on ownership and end-of-life, is an issue for a quarter of users.
► 58% of active users do have a policy on site ownership and responsibilities, but only 19% on end-of-life.
► Granularity of security and poor provision of records management were cited as technical shortcomings by 28% of users.

Organic Growth
► 43% have yet to bring SharePoint-stored content into their existing retention and long-term archive policies, including 11% who feel that their exposure in these areas is being increased by SharePoint. Only 28% of active users have a legal-discovery/legal-hold policy that extends to SharePoint.
► Only 22% of organizations provide their users with any guidance on corporate classification and use of content types and columns. Only 10% have a policy on dealing with emails and email attachments.
04/12/2023 25
► Rapid data growth without bounds► We found that most companies are adding less
than 25 sites per month, with just 11% of even the largest companies adding more than 25 per month, although they were the most likely to have no idea of the number being created.
04/12/2023 26
► Even if it starts out small, SharePoint is likely to turn into an enterprise project. Plan accordingly.
► Create a governance framework before rollout to manage team site ownership, classifications, templates, acceptable use, legal discovery, and email handling.
► Do not attempt to rollout all features at once. However, be aware that team sites will collect documents from day one, and that will have many implications for document and records management.
