OpenText and SharePoint are both systems for team collaboration, enterprise content management and document storage. They provide strong security options, permission control, integration capabilities with popular office tools like Microsoft Office and third-party applications.

But OpenText is primarily focused on enterprise information management for large organizations. It includes more advanced tools for archiving, compliance and governance capabilities, offers more extensive customization and integration options for complex enterprise workflows. OpenText is available in on-premises and in cloud environments.

SharePoint is primarily collaboration platform for teams, now offered as a part of the Microsoft 365 office suite. Of course, it seamlessly integrates with other Microsoft tools (Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, Power BI). SharePoint has more user-friendly interface but less customization options.
