I have no experience of it myself, but I can tell you that when someone
was looking for a document sharing system recently up came the
suggestion:

"Install Sharepoint and suffer like the rest of us". :-)

My experience as both a Sharepoint developer and user for a few years is
that there are three possible reasons for that:

1. Insufficient training in effective use of it.

2. Users who refuse to learn.

3. Developers who don't really understand it.

#2 is the sort of person who taps 'x' a zillion times in 'vi' even after
being taught how to use 'dd' with a number in front of it.

#3 is the sort of person who uses the space bar and the return key to
format documents in Word or Pages.

Don't get me wrong, though--I'm not thrilled with the innards of
Sharepoint, which would make Rube Goldberg jealous.

Thanks for the clarification.
