It feels odd to write a non-technical post but I read an interesting article about product development around the SharePoint ecosystem at Microsoft over the past 8 years and it is worth sharing. This is an interesting behind-the-scenes view. It seems to me that the focus lately has been on the end-user experience, the UI/UX, and the web content creator experience rather than the previous emphases on document management and process automation. (Content types, document sets anyone?) Anyway, draw your own conclusions.
If you’re keen to see the whole 23 year history of SharePoint in one nifty graphic, SharePoint Product Manager Mark Kashman put one up on recently on his Twitter/X account. Here it is:
Yes I know it’s too small to read. Right-click on it, then select “Open image in new tab”.
You’re welcome.
