SharePoint for records management

"I needed to know more about the weaknesses of Sharepoint as a records management tool. This was covered very well. Even though the course tutor is a Sharepoint fan, his honesty on what it can't do was very much appreciated. "

"I wanted a thorough RM-focussed overview of SharePoint, illustrated with real-world examples, and that is what I got "
