SharePoint intranet trends and predictions for 2025
In this episode of Fresh Perspectives, Jarbas Horst and David Bowman welcome the new year with predictions and insights for 2025.
They begin with Viva Engage, predicting its continued momentum owing to Microsoft’s consistent improvements and the tool’s ease of integration within organizations. When combined with SharePoint and Teams, Viva Engage creates a powerful platform for enterprise social networking, enhancing community building and content collaboration.
The conversation then shifts to the evolution of SharePoint into a modern web publishing tool. Jarbas and David highlight new features such as custom fonts, flexible layout sections, and AI-driven tools like Copilot that enhance content creation and presentation. Despite these advancements, they emphasize the importance of governance to maintain consistency in your intranet. They are optimistic about the role AI will play in 2025, particularly through Microsoft’s Copilot and specialized ‘agents’ that automate tasks and enhance efficiency, while stressing that human involvement remains essential for creating a cohesive user experience.
