SharePoint home site

A SharePoint home site provides a customized landing experience that reflects the organization’s brand, voice, and priorities. A home site also serves as the gateway to other portals in your organization’s intranet. Your organization needs a home site not only to provide the best intranet experience for viewers but also to take advantage of features like SharePoint global navigation and the many ways to integrate your intranet with Microsoft Teams by using Viva Connections.

SharePoint permissions

Traditionally, SharePoint permissions have been managed through a set of permissions groups within a site (Owners, Members, Visitors, etc.). In SharePoint in Microsoft 365, this remains true for some types of sites, but additional options are available, and SharePoint is part of a much broader set of capabilities for secure collaboration with Microsoft 365.
