Analyst ReportUnderstanding Copilot for SharePoint
- Copilot for SharePoint can reduce the effort of managing Web pages but does not offer enough value alone for its required M365 Copilot license.
- It allows SharePoint experts and non-technical users to use natural language prompts to create and manage Web pages.
- A M365 Copilot license is required to author Web pages with Copilot for SharePoint but not to read them.
Copilot for SharePoint provides tools for SharePoint Online that boost Web page creation and management, accelerating site setup and keeping Web content fresh. Primarily accelerating the creation of text-based content is not a sufficient reason on its own to purchase Microsoft 365 Copilot, so Copilot for SharePoint offers little transformative value for organizations. However, if organizations will be deploying Microsoft 365 Copilot for other drivers, Copilot for SharePoint can help users reduce the mundane tasks associated with Web content on SharePoint Online intranets without requiring deep SharePoint knowledge.
