Team sites are useful to:

Plan and coordinate events.
Track work progress and any issues.
Communication sites help you:
Build a knowledge management system.
Connect leadership with teams.
Share information and industry news.
After creating a SharePoint site, you can add elements like lists, document libraries and pages.
Lists help you track goals and issues. With a SharePoint list, you can:
Build an issue tracker.
Create an onboarding checklist.
Track work progress.
Manage your team’s assets and requests.
Check out this Scribe on how to use SharePoint lists.
A SharePoint library is a collection of files and folders within a SharePoint site. It helps you organize information and share documents with your team. You can easily upload files to your library or create new files.
One of the main advantages of a document library is sharing files across your organization.
You can also add Microsoft Forms to your SharePoint site. You can use these forms to collect your team’s suggestions and opinions or create surveys. Forms are also useful for adding quizzes to your training sites.
You can keep your SharePoint workspace clean by deleting outdated sites.
To delete a site, you need to be the site owner and admin (for communication sites). And when you delete a site, all the pages, lists and document libraries will also be deleted.
You can restore a deleted site and all associated objects if you have admin privilege. SharePoint will keep your deleted sites in the trash for 93 days before permanently deleting them.
Learning how to use SharePoint will help your team members work more efficiently.
SharePoint sites empower teams to share knowledge, keep track of projects and manage remote teams.
