Just wondering if anyone else uses Sharepoint ?
My company are just moving from a self built intranet to Sharepoint for the whole function (not just EHS) and I am wondering if anyone has a good system that we could potentially benchmark?
Many thanks.

The company I recently started with use this Sharepoint system. I have never worked with any other system so I cant compare for you but I can tell you that I find it easy to use and I find it beneficial to me on the ground.

I use the free version of SharePoint. I don't like it at all. Like James however I don't have any previous experience to compare it with.

If you're moving from a defined site architecture on an Intranet to the very same architecture in SharePoint, then things should be relatively straightforward.
There is of course an opportunity to review that architecture before you make that transition. There's an opportunity to develop site collection points for external sharing too.

We have also changed over to a SharePoint based Intranet from the conventional one a few years ago.
SharePoint is a web application platform in the Microsoft Office server suite.
SharePoint combines various functions which are traditionally separate applications: intranet, extranet, content management, document management, personal cloud, enterprise social networking, enterprise search, business intelligence, workflow management, web content management, and an enterprise application store.[4

I use SharePoint.
I'd advise you not to just migrate your folder structure over to it though.
You'll not get the best out of it if you do.
I use it and it works very well for us. But as others have said I've not used anything else.
However experience with accident databases and online training portals has not been good, and I can't always get what I want without having to read the bloody manual every time I want to interogate them.
My view is I shouldn't need a manual if I know what the sytem should do - I live in hope...

We're using Sharepoint but only for some collaborative type work such as planning and intra-department stuff. We aren't using it for our intranet, and we certaibly won't be using it for our incident reporting. Don't know why we're using it in only this limited way, but we are and in that context it seems to work OK,
