## What the models said for it

- "Best "Zero Additional Cost" Option: Microsoft Copilot Studio + SharePoint" (Gemini 3.5 Flash, AI IT agents)
- "Makes sense when permissions, Teams, Entra ID, and formal document controls are already standardized on Microsoft" (Perplexity Sonar, IT documentation)
- "SharePoint may be the practical choice if your needs are mostly policies and Office files" (GPT-6 Luna, IT documentation)
- "use SharePoint instead if Microsoft 365 integration and governance are more important" (Perplexity Sonar, IT documentation)

## And against it

- "Heavy, complex, and overkill unless you're deeply embedded in Microsoft 365" (Kimi K2, IT documentation)
- "It is technically "cloud storage," not an MFT. It lacks the deep audit trails required for strict compliance frameworks" (Qwen 3.7 Flash, MFT)
- "SharePoint used as an unmanaged "IT wiki" | ... Microsoft warns about site sprawl and oversharing." (GPT-6 Luna, IT documentation)
- "SharePoint is notoriously difficult to maintain as an IT-specific knowledge base" (Gemini 3.5 Flash, IT documentation)
