How to Improve Your IT Services

Office 365 is one of the fastest growing businesses in Microsoft’s long history of providing innovative technology products and services that change lives and help organizations succeed. Every week Microsoft are making the product better and better. If your business has not moved your basic IT services, Microsoft Exchange eMail and Intranet SharePoint into Office 365, then you are missing out on a reliable, stable well supported service. The latest numbers clearly showed that people everywhere are choosing Office 365 to enhance their personal and professional productivity.

Office 365 revenue grew nearly 70 percent compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, the number of consumers who subscribe to Office 365 increased to 18.2 million, with 3 million of those people signing up during the first quarter alone.

Office 365 is not just about Word, Excel and PowerPoint, it has much more to offer companies. You can host your email fully in Office 365, the people who wrote Exchange surly must be the best people to run this product better than anyone else. Putting your email into Office 365 will ensure that the service has the latest updates. Office 365 even scan your email for viruses, malware and spam. Also users will have the new Skype for Business, formally Lync, as a reliable and controllable instant message and VoiP sevice.

One main reason why Microsoft Office 365 is so popular is that both business users and consumers always have the latest version of Office, so they can immediately take advantage of improvements such as the new History feature in Office 2016 for Windows. History lets users collaborate with confidence, providing an easier way for them to find and restore previous versions of their documents, and review the changes that they and their team have made over time.

Businesses and other organizations worldwide are using Office 365 to improve communication and collaboration, increase efficiency and boost productivity. Another platform within Office 365 is SharePoint. What is SharePoint you may be saying? I don’t understand it. SharePoint can be whatever you want it to be. It is a great open platform to build just about anything. Companies that use SharePoint find massive benefits with control of their documents and at the same time improve communication and collaboration around the organisation. It is possible to build small IT systems to improve some of your business processes. Again this platform is there for you, its takes minutes to get it up and running verses your local IT support having to build and install.

There is also no surprise to find a number of other companies developing products that will work with or within Office 365. Office 365 has its own store, which is a great starting point to find useful plugins.

With Office 365 matching now ahead of Google, Microsoft O365 has to be the best platform to resolve your Office licencing and strengthen your IT services.
