About Microsoft 365

Microsoft 365 is a platform to allow you to purchase cloud-based monthly subscription licenses for all your business software applications, incorporating the latest versions of Outlook, SharePoint, Excel, PowerPoint and more.  Microsoft have an excellent suite of products based around the original Microsoft Office desktop software licenses, but 365 allows you to move your systems to the cloud whilst also reducing up-front costs through its subscription model.

Outlook 2016 via the Microsoft 365 subscription provides one of the key improvements over traditional desktop Office software licenses – as the system is supported and managed by Microsoft you can be reassured it will work faster and more reliably. It also benefits from a reduction in spam and many additional security options such as 2-factor authentication. With a subscription to Office 365 you will always have the most up-to-date version of the software.

Most customers opt for the bundled plans which add in OneDrive and Skype for business.  The flexibility of using the cloud allows you to save documents, spreadsheets, and presentations in OneDrive, online. This allows the ability to share them with others as well as access them remotely on the go.  Everything stored is automatically duplicated in the cloud so if a computer dies then you don’t lose your important data. Office 365 enables you to communicate with customers and remote workers more effectively with skype, and collaborate on files at the same time via OneDrive and SharePoint.

The premium plan adds the latest version of the desktop software which can be installed on 5 separate machines (PC or Mac) including your desktop, laptop and home pc, for example.

There is also the added flexibility, whether you’re working in your office or on the go, you can access files via mobile devices. You will benefit from always having the latest versions of the software, so you’ll never have to worry about updates.
