Investing in Microsoft 365 licenses (formerly known as Office 365) is the first step, but making the most out of them is a journey. The suite of applications offered by Microsoft 365 has the potential to revolutionise your business operations.
Microsoft 365 is a subscription-based cloud service that brings together the best of Microsoft's productivity apps and services. It offers a comprehensive suite of applications beyond the well-known Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. This includes SharePoint for collaborative work and data sharing, Teams for efficient communication, Planner for task management, Power BI for data analysis and visualisation, and more. Along with this, Microsoft 365 ensures robust security, compliance tools, and device management.
Every license your business purchases represents an investment. If you're only using the software for basic tasks like email and word processing, you're not realising the full value of that investment. For instance, if you have been using third-party software for project management, you could instead leverage Planner within Microsoft 365. This can streamline your operations and save you additional software costs.
Effective use of Microsoft 365 can significantly boost collaboration and productivity within your team. With tools like SharePoint and Teams, your staff can work together more seamlessly. One of our clients, a legal advisory, was able to eliminate long email threads and streamline their communication by using Teams, which boosted their productivity and response time.
In the digital age, data security and compliance are paramount. Microsoft 365 offers robust built-in security features that many businesses are not fully utilising. For example, we helped a financial consulting firm set up multi-factor authentication, data encryption, and manage user privileges to ensure their client data remained secure and compliant with regulations.
Microsoft 365 continuously rolls out updates, features and improvements. Utilising these will keep your team's skills current and improve their efficiency. When Planner introduced new task management features, we held a training session for our clients, ensuring they were familiar with the updates and could use them effectively.
One of the main reasons businesses choose Microsoft 365 is its scalability. As your business grows, your software needs change. Microsoft 365's scalable nature means it can grow with you, and we can guide you through the necessary adjustments. We supported a Perth-based startup that needed to expand their IT setup as they grew, making the transition seamless.
Transitioning to a new platform can be daunting. We handle the migration and implementation process to ensure it's as smooth and hassle-free as possible, allowing your business to experience minimal downtime. A medium-sized publishing company we worked with was able to smoothly transition to Microsoft 365 with our support.
