Microsoft Office 365...Cloud Based Management

What is Office 365? I'll tell you....

It has the familiar programs; Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook...you know the ones. Some of the new features are  cloud based email, video conferencing, file sharing, secure administration, and the ability to edit documents remotely from anywhere.

Outlook on 365 gives you 25GB of storage space. When synced with you mobile device, you can remotely wipe your data if your phone is ever lost of stolen. Your emails will be filtered for spam, and free of advertising.

The instant messaging and conferencing features are great for business. You can view who's on line. Set up meetings with people on your contact list. There is PC to PC calling and you can set this up with audio and visual. This can potentially save travel costs by having remote online meetings that can include up to 250 participants. In the virtual meeting set up you're able to share desktops and presentations easily.

Anyone, anywhere can access the up to date version of a file. You can control who can see files and invite other's to have access. There's even an internal social network.

Need a website? You will have access to SharePoint Online. The hosting fees are included in your 365 plan. No designer needed.

On the go a lot? There's even an app for that.
