SharePoint Alerts Retirement: What Organizations Need to Do Now

By Rob Manfredi, President, Bamboo Solutions

Microsoft has announced the retirement of SharePoint Alerts, one of the most widely used notification features in SharePoint.

For nearly two decades, SharePoint Alerts allowed users to receive notifications when content changed in lists and document libraries. These alerts became essential for organizations managing documents, tasks, records, and compliance workflows.

With SharePoint Alerts being retired, organizations must now determine how they will continue notifying users when important content changes.

But when you dig deeper, the reality is very different.

Let’s break down the true cost of using Power Automate as a 1:1 replacement for SharePoint Alerts—and why that approach can quickly become expensive, complex, and unsustainable.
