Hi Everyone
I’m currently setting up SharePoint for a company using SharePoint Online (E1) package of Office 365.
I seem to be getting a slow performance from SharePoint even with a fast internet connection within the office. I have tried using Chrome (Mac and Windows 7 Ultimate) and IE (Windows 7 Ultimate). I find pages are hanging and I need to refresh. One page took nearly 20 seconds to open.
I performed a demo the other day and was struggling, which was a bit embarrassing!
Anyone else had this problem with SharePoint Online?
Many thanks
Mark.
I dont wish to sound arrogant but I am perpetually surprised by the niaivity of the Microsoft community for supposing the Office 365 model could ever work with a Document Repository system like Sharepoint.
The problem is that the more popular these Cloud Data Server systems become, the faster they reach capacilty, and enter a Denial of Service (DOS) situation. Now I thought this would have been patently obvious to anyone with two brain cells to run together, but evidently not.
Yes Cloud Computing is good for some things, but not ALL things. Keep it light & breezy & and IF – AND ONLY IF – everyone else does the same, then it can work. So email, word processing, spreadsheets (etc) will work in the Cloud. But Sharepoint in the Cloud ? Oh please ….
It will only get worse. Sharepoint belongs on a local or locally hosted server. Beyond that expect huge latency due to logistical issues of all those people moving trying to move all that data over the wire to/from the same servers.
