Twelve months on from the start of a global pandemic and companies are still trying to adapt to the way of working. The new modern workplace and management of customer expectations continues to be a widely talked about subject with many companies struggling to achieve a basic balance.
The Coronavirus pandemic has forced changes to business operations and the logistics of home working, online security and overall productivity are key concerns for many businesses. They have been forced to look for cloud-based solutions to allow for a more collaborative work environment for employees, whether they are working remotely or on-site.
With various tools out there to support remote working, it is often difficult to choose the best system to implement; however for many the key influence comes down to how different platforms integrate with each other to provide a seamless process for your company’s business operations.
Why are more companies moving to Microsoft?
Microsoft is reimagining the way people work and has been designed to help businesses achieve more. So whether this is through chat, calls, hosting online meetings and collaborating in real time, and whether working remotely or on-park, Microsoft provides one integrated solution with advanced security options, innovative office apps and intelligent cloud services.
Microsoft 365 is designed to help companies achieve more with innovative Office apps, intelligent cloud services, and world-class security.
Enhances communication
There are many ways to collaborate and communicate in Office 365. The suite comes with an impressive array of tools – Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, Yammer, Office Groups, Skype for Business, Office Video, OneDrive for Business. You name it – you can harness these tools to improve communication flows and cultivate a culture of collaboration in which employees are able to seamlessly share ideas and files between teams, departments, tools and devices.
Boost productivity
In a world of flexible, mobile workstyles, Microsoft 365 sets the stage for productivity by enabling employees to gain access to Microsoft applications and tools, on a range of mobile devices and smartphones from wherever they are. Whether you perform tasks during a coffee catch-up with a colleague or jumping on a conference call with a client – with Office 365, work becomes something you do at the point of need, not confined to an office you head to.
Streamlines IT Operations
Keeping an on-premises IT infrastructure up and running is a challenging proposition – with multiple layers of technical requirements, cross-product dependencies and many other moving parts, there is a lot that can go haywire. Upgrading one single element in the technical infrastructure of an organisation can unleash a whole wave of linked upgrades, or provoke a cascading set of unfortunate errors as incompatibilities between servers emerge. Migrating to Microsoft cloud applications allows your business to streamline your IT operations.
Where companies have previously struggled to adapt, from diverting calls, accessing files remotely, managing team members who are feeling isolated and unproductive and, the big one, worrying about security, Microsoft has provided a central platform that eliminates these and provides businesses with the reassurance that their operations can carry on as normal whether working on-park or remotely.
