A modern office needs modern solutions

Like most of the business world, we are transitioning email and data storage to “the Cloud” with Microsoft 365.

Microsoft 365 (formerly Microsoft Office or Office 365) expands Microsoft’s already ubiquitous solutions and makes them easier to use, backup, and collaborate. Software like Word, Excel, Outlook, and Powerpoint you’d already be familiar with now work seamlessly together. Email, Contacts, Cloud storage, even online apps all accessible over an internet connection.

Here are 8 reasons why moving to Microsoft 365 can make sense: Benefits of Microsoft 365 for small business.

Features explained

Email – Business email is transitioning to Microsoft 365. Your business class email will be accessible and in-sync across your devices. Exchange features like calendaring and sharing are included.

Cloud Storage – In business this is the evolution of the “Shared Drive”, making your files not only accessible securely to those that need access to them but available to be worked on collaboratively and even when you are offline. Robust security controls mean you determine who has access to your cloud data.

Office Apps – The familiar Word, Powerpoint, Excel, and Outlook (and Access but only on PC). In the Business Basic option, these apps are only available online. In other subscriptions, you can install apps on up to 5 of your devices, per user account.

How are Microsoft 365 files backed up?

Microsoft 365 files are automatically backed up regularly to OneDrive. You’ll be granted 1 Terrabyte (1024 Gigabytes) of cloud storage to save these backups with Basic, Standard, and Enterprise licenses.

Exchange
Email activities and Exchange data (mail, contacts, and calendar) with unlimited retention

OneDrive for Business
Data saved for multiple revisions, edits and versions

SharePoint
Protection of SharePoint document libraries

Teams
Protection of Teams chats, conversations, and documents shared through Teams

Multi Factor Authentication (or MFA, or 2FA) is a simple idea that provides a tremendous improvement in security. By requiring something you know (username and password) AND something you have (mobile phone), security is increased by an order of magnitude. Click here to read more
