Replacing Dropbox with Sharepoint. Looking for guidance.
Hello all -- I am admittedly not very familiar with Sharepoint - but from what I can see, it can pretty much do *anything*. That being said - in my organization we are exploring replacing our imp...
Unless something has changed, I thought that anyone that was a member of the group has "admin" permissions on the files in a group?

- You can absolutely mirror this dropbox structure to a SharePoint one where each dropbox folder could be a site and each site will be managed by a department since you are working with departments.... you can do the same with a Group and subsites, but I would not use a Group for each department since a Group itself is an independent information container
jcgonzalezmartin - I think I would rather not use a group -- simply because of all of the *extra* things that come along with the group (mailbox, calendar, notebook, etc). I would like to keep this as simple as possible.
With that being said - the thought would be to create a separate site for each of the top level shares mentioned above?
Everytime I login to my E3 portal and get to my SP admin page it just makes my head hurt because I feel like there should be more that I am missing. Any chance you could provide any technet or something other resource that could act as a primer for setting this up?
Thanks
