Out-of-the-box intranets vs SharePoint & Office 365
1 October 2018
A big flaw in these claims is that mostly they do not specify the SharePoint edition they are describing so it is harder to refute such claims.
To respond to this, ClearPeople have evaluated both SharePoint Online and Office 365 (using E3 licensing) against the same criteria as some well-known out-of-the-box intranet software providers describe.
Many of the out-of-the-box intranet products are more comparable to SharePoint Online than SharePoint On-Premises hence choosing this comparison.
