## Plumsail Documents' origins: Enhancing SharePoint for users

For a long time, Microsoft has been the dominant player in workplace software. Their web-based sharing and collaboration tool, SharePoint, launched in 2001—seven whole years before Dropbox existed.

Founded in 2011, Plumsail is a software company specializing in tools and add-ons that work with Microsoft SharePoint. Their suite of apps focus on enhancing the SharePoint experience for larger companies, non-profits, and government institutions.
