SharePoint's new Content Management Assessment (CMA) tool is like having a health check-up for your digital workspace. Imagine your office as a busy library. Over time, books get misplaced, borrowed without proper records, or simply forgotten on the shelves. The CMA acts like a librarian who not only organizes the books but also provides a report on which books are popular, which ones need to be returned, and how to make the library more efficient.
This tool helps those managing SharePoint sites to quickly understand the condition of their sites. It looks at how well the sites are organized, who has access to what, and whether the sites are ready for new features like Copilot, which is a tool designed to assist with tasks. Instead of spending hours manually checking each part of the site, the CMA automatically gathers this information and presents it in a straightforward dashboard. This dashboard is like a report card, showing you what’s working well and what needs attention, with suggestions on how to improve.
The CMA makes it easier to navigate through various reports, similar to how a GPS helps you find your way through a city. It provides clear instructions and recommendations, making it simpler to manage and improve your SharePoint environment. This tool is accessed through the SharePoint Admin Center, where you can start a free assessment, review the results, and see tailored advice on what to do next. By using this tool, you can ensure your SharePoint sites are well-organized, secure, and ready for future enhancements.
