SharePoint’s Market Share Penetration

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

A recent study by Michael Osterman, from Osterman Research, gives us some insight into SharePoint’s market share penetration.  Some of the highlights Michael shares with us include:

  • Among organizations who have deployed Microsoft Exchanged, more than one half already have deployed SharePoint and another 12% plan to deploy SharePoint this year.
  • Less than 20% use SharePoint as a mission critical application.  This number is expected to double this next year.
  • Most SharePoint deployments are not hosted.
  • 1/3 or organizations have collaboration policies in place, while the rest leave it up to departments and teams to decide.
