More about Microsoft SharePoint 2023 End of Life

SharePoint Server is an information and content management system developed by Microsoft. It is used by businesses to store and share data, documents, and other information.

Unfortunately, Microsoft has announced the end of life (EOL) for SharePoint Server 2013 on April 13, 2021. This means that Microsoft will no longer provide support or security updates for the product.

If your business is still using SharePoint Server 2013, it is important to make plans to transition to an alternative solution. There are a few options to consider, such as migrating to SharePoint Online, upgrading to SharePoint 2016 or SharePoint 2019, or switching to an alternative product such as Google Drive or Dropbox.

It is important to remember that the transition process can be time-consuming and costly. It is important to plan ahead and budget for any additional costs or resources required for the transition.

It is also advisable to consider the pros and cons of each option before making a decision. This will ensure that you choose the best solution for your business.
