In our recent webinar, we explored content experience, processing, governance, and tips for maximizing productivity and efficiency with SharePoint Premium. 

Here are some key highlights from the webinar: 

Introduction to Microsoft SharePoint Premium 

Microsoft SharePoint Premium is revolutionizing how organizations manage, process, and govern their content, especially at scale. This advanced platform leverages AI, including traditional machine learning, to ensure your unstructured content is clean, well-organized, and enriched with metadata. This foundational work is crucial for making the most of Microsoft Copilot features in order to receive valuable insights and answers from this AI assistant. SharePoint Premium offers more than just content management; it includes robust governance tools like SharePoint Advanced Management (SAM) and operates on a pay-as-you-go model, allowing flexibility based on the volume of content processed. 

Enhancing content experience

SharePoint Premium significantly boosts productivity with its comprehensive document solutions available in the Documents Hub. These tools facilitate seamless internal collaboration and efficient external sharing with partners or clients. The enhanced content experiences include upgraded file viewer capabilities and a dedicated app in Microsoft Teams for managing contracts, statements of work, orders, and invoices. This integrated approach ensures that documents are always ready for prime time and can be easily shared as needed.

Streamlining content processing

Organizations spend an astonishing $46 billion annually on content storage and management.

By 2025, it’s estimated that there will be over 1 billion terabytes of content, much of it unstructured and difficult to manage. SharePoint Premium addresses these challenges with its advanced content processing features.

Using Microsoft Syntex, a service for content processing, understanding, and compliance, SharePoint Premium automates the process of capturing, organizing, and classifying documents across SharePoint libraries, Microsoft Teams, OneDrive for Business, and Exchange. This intelligent document processing transforms raw business documents into valuable organizational knowledge, significantly enhancing productivity.

Ensuring content governance

Effective governance is essential for managing the ever-increasing volumes of content. SharePoint Premium tackles this by providing comprehensive governance tools to manage content access, lifecycle, and compliance.

SharePoint Advanced Management (SAM) offers detailed reporting and data access governance, helping you monitor sharing activities and sensitivity labels. SAM also introduces advanced capabilities for restricting access, surpassing traditional permissions and groups, and even allowing for conditional access policies through Entra ID. These features ensure that content is securely managed and appropriately shared.

Best practices and tips

To fully harness the power of SharePoint Premium, it’s important to implement best practices for content management and processing. Utilize machine learning (ML) models to automate document processing, extract valuable data, and generate rich metadata. This metadata enhances searchability and organization, making it easier to manage large volumes of documents.

In addition, content assembly features streamline the creation of bulk documents, such as contract renewals or customer communications, ensuring consistency and efficiency. These capabilities also allow for deriving actionable insights from document content, unlocking new opportunities for data-driven decision-making.
