The user experience of SharePoint is so bad that MS should consider pursuing a patent for "a method for shitposting deterrence."
You'll need to qualify that critique, because the SharePoint installs I've consulted on have ended up with quite a high acceptance and use rate and have seen employees self-elect (without forcing them) to stop using email and shared drives for file collaboration). It's possible your experience with SharePoint was more an issue with who configured it. Or that you're thinking of SP2007?

SharePoint is really good for shared files. But that is what it was created for. It is called Microsoft Office SharePoint. If you turn on Publishing Pages you can make is work as in intranet portal.

Exactly this. I want to clarify- I'm not a sharepoint hater. It just has some uglies that prevent people from easily posting stupid things. If you are going to post something stupid, you have to be MOTIVATED to do so on sharepoint.
