SharePoint Health Check
SharePoint health check helps identify current and potential issues in the SharePoint infrastructure, architecture, performance and security.
With 17-year experience in SharePoint, we use the proprietary Health Check methodology to help orgs assess their SharePoint deployment and fix issues.
What Is SharePoint Health Check?
Our 17-year SharePoint consulting and development practice allowed us to shape the proprietary SharePoint Health Check methodology. Its goal is to help organizations carry out thorough SharePoint performance monitoring and security audit. The methodology assesses the overall state of a SharePoint deployment and its particular components identifying flaws that affect a solution’s security, stability and performance. Our methodology covers but is not limited to:
SharePoint farm assessment
Custom applications assessment and code review
Load-time analysis
SharePoint security audit
Content analysis and assessment
User experience assessment
The Scope of SharePoint Health Check
SharePoint farm assessment
We carry out SharePoint farm assessment to reveal performance issues caused by the deployment’s improper architecture or incorrect setup.
Custom application assessment and custom code review
We provide a comprehensive analysis of the overall state of custom applications within your SharePoint solution.

When to Go for SharePoint Health Check?
Usually, enterprises face several common issues with their SharePoint environments. Any of these issues can be the right reason for carrying out SharePoint Health Check.
Poor performance
The increasing amount of SharePoint sites, custom solutions and content can make your solution sluggish, which affects users’ productivity. ScienceSoft is here to conduct SharePoint performance monitoring and help you identify the core cause of troubles.
Security issues
Misconfigured deployments, incorrectly set permissions and unpatched vulnerabilities are just a few problems that can undermine your solution security. In the course of an in-depth SharePoint security audit, ScienceSoft checks your SharePoint solution from different security angles to reveal both apparent and hidden security flaws and close them as soon as possible to avoid a major impact on your deployment.
Poor user adoption
Both performance and security issues lead to consequent adoption problems. In close cooperation with end users, business and technical representatives, ScienceSoft analyzes your current solution and elaborates on the feasible tactics to fine-tune or reconfigure it to meet your corporate goals as well as users’ needs and preferences.
High support costs
Finally, ongoing SharePoint issues require organizations to constantly spend extra money on supporting their solutions’ stability. By taking a proactive approach to solving the identified issues, you not only enhance the overall solution’s efficiency but also cut the cost of fixing problems by your system administrators or third-party service providers.
