At CollabDays Oslo, we had the pleasure of meeting Microsoft 365 Advisor Linda Berglund. Since then, Linda has explored our DeliverPoint solution—and quickly became a fan. We recently sat down to record her thoughts on what makes DeliverPoint stand out when it comes to SharePoint Online permissions management.
In this exclusive video interview, Linda explains why she recommends DeliverPoint to SharePoint Site Owners, administrators, and Microsoft 365 consultants.

Why Linda Berglund Recommends DeliverPoint
Here’s a breakdown of the key DeliverPoint features that impressed Linda and why they matter:
1. On-Demand Reporting for Sharing Links & Permissions
With DeliverPoint, Site Owners can generate real-time reports on exactly who has access to their SharePoint sites, libraries, folders, and files—including external users. This addresses one of the biggest security blind spots in SharePoint: oversharing.
“I love how easy it is for Site Owners to see who has access without needing help from IT,” Linda says.
2. Scheduled Permission Reports for Delegated Governance
From an administrator’s perspective, DeliverPoint allows you to schedule recurring permission audits and delegate them to Site Owners. This bridges the gap between IT and business users, empowering Site Owners to stay accountable for access control.
3. Permission SnapShots
DeliverPoint allows you to capture a snapshot of permissions at any given time. These snapshots can be:
- Compared with current permissions
- Used as a baseline
- Restored if needed (e.g. after accidental changes or sprawl)
This is a game-changer for governance and for preparing for Microsoft Copilot readiness, where access control is essential.
4. SPFx-Based – Data Stays Inside Your M365 Tenant
DeliverPoint is 100% built using the SharePoint Framework (SPFx) and hosted entirely within the customer’s Microsoft 365 tenant. That means:
- No external data transfers
- Fully aligned with your compliance and data residency requirements
Linda highlighted this as a critical differentiator when comparing DeliverPoint with other solutions.
5. Affordable Alternative to SharePoint Advanced Management (SAM)
DeliverPoint offers many of the capabilities you’d find in Microsoft’s SharePoint Advanced Management (SAM)—but at a significantly lower cost. Linda noted that for many of her clients, DeliverPoint is more accessible and better tailored to the needs of mid-sized organizations.
