Point of View: More Potential SharePoint Pitfalls

Dan Holme's article "Potential SharePoint Pitfalls" outlines 6 potential SharePoint pitfalls that can threaten the success of a SharePoint implementation:

1. Not having a governance plan.
2. Using MOSS 2007 when WSS would have sufficed.
3. Underestimating how important end-user productivity is.
4. Sticking your head in the sand instead of dealing with political resistance.
5. Failing to consider your company's culture.
6. Not using all the features SharePoint offers. 

Do you agree with Dan's list?
What have you found to be a stumbling block to SharePoint success?

A few I would add:

- Know what SharePoint does and how it does it

- Look to solve the business problem and not implement something thinking that it will be used

- Security and site roles
