When working collaboratively, there's nothing more important than your ability to quickly and easily share files. As its name suggests, [SharePoint](https://www.thefinalstep.co.uk/managed-it-services/it-migration/sharepoint-migration) allows users to share files with others whilst keeping those files in a central location. 

Conventional file sharing, by attaching files to email, normally means lots of versions of files in different locations - it's a headache to combine all the edits and comments. But multiple users working on a single, central file, make edits and comments much easier to track and manage. 

SharePoint also keeps a version history, so you can restore previous edits if needed. 

If you're interested in more file-sharing tips, you might find our[ tip on attaching files to teams meetings](https://www.thefinalstep.co.uk/bytesizebulletins/attach-a-file-to-a-teams-meeting) useful.
