A: SharePoint is an online storage and information system that is a key component of Microsoft Office and is utilised by many of the online capable tools within the different Microsoft 365 (previously Office 365) plans.


It is primarily used as a secure place to store, organise, share and access information between a variety of devices, applications and users within the Microsoft 365 environment.


Sharepoint is the storage area behind much of the information that is created and accessed by Teams and tools like OneDrive actually sync files between Sharepoint and your local device or computer in a similar way to DropBox.


Sharepoint can also be used as an intranet (internal internet used and accessed only by your business), for shared storage of tables or lists of information and much more.


Generally, Teams is more usable system for modern businesses, providing an easy to use interface for many of the Sharepoint features) rather than accessing Sharepoint directly.
