Are you having problems with documents in SharePoint not syncing? We might have the simple answer.

The widespread adoption of cloud storage and services like Microsoft SharePoint and Google Drive has brought significant advantages to businesses and their employees. The ability to work from any location with an internet connection and to collaborate more effectively has demonstrably improved productivity and workflow flexibility. However, these benefits are entirely dependent on a stable internet connection.

Real-world problem encountered – SharePoint not syncing

We recently assisted a small team who were all collaborating on the same Excel documents within SharePoint. They were working from different locations, often at home, and at varying times, and were experiencing recurring issues with data loss. Our investigation revealed the cause: one team member’s home broadband connection (not a Beaming connection, we should clarify) was intermittently dropping and reconnecting. When their connection re-established, SharePoint would unfortunately synchronise to an older version of the document, overwriting more recent changes. This proved inefficient, frustrating and confusing for all team members – but fortunately it could be solved by using a better internet connection.

This scenario underscores a crucial point for UK SMEs: while high-quality business broadband offers incredible opportunities, an unstable connection can lead to significant operational challenges and potentially compromise your data integrity.
