<p>This time last year I was working in an IT Strategy role and attending the SharePoint conference in Anaheim, while an Enterprise Architecture colleague from our ECM team was at the OpenText conference. We were both attending with an agenda: we were working for a steering committee attempting to make some strategic decisions on technology platforms.</p><p>Fast forward to the present and unfortunately, although I would have loved to go and learn about SharePoint 2013, I now work for the Intranet team and our strategic decision has been made to move away from SharePoint and to consolidate web technologies on an OpenText technology stack, basically the same stack used by our external .com web team.</p><p>With the decision made, I'd like to take a look at yet another alternative to SharePoint. The SharePoint Problem</p><p>The major issue with SharePoint is the multiple personality disorder displayed by both the platform itself, and the Microsoft marketing machine. Now don't get me wrong, I am not a "hater" even though my last two employers have been stuck in SharePoint 2007 and I would be quite happy never to work with that version ever again</p><p><a href="http://www.cmswire.com/cms/information-management/sharepoint-its-not-your-only-alternative-018447.php">Keep reading...</a></p>
