Reasons Why You Should Shift To Microsoft Office 365

If you haven’t upgraded to Microsoft Office 365 for business yet, let us enumerate some valid reasons why you should. Here are some of the best you need to know before your Microsoft Office 365 migration.

Microsoft Office 365 corresponds well with the tools you already use

Office 365 works and jives very well with the programs you already know and use: Outlook, Word, Excel, OneNote, Publisher, and PowerPoint. These tools provide the same great features you rely on as well as powerful capabilities in Office 365. Another great factor is that with multiple subscription levels in Microsoft Office 365, you can view if others are editing the document you’re using, synchronize documents with your desktop, broadcast PowerPoint presentations, and check documents in and out of your online document library.  Great isn’t it?

Get access— anywhere and anytime

Microsoft Office 365 gives you web-enabled access to email, important documents, contacts, and calendar on almost any device. This includes PCs, Mac computers, iPhones, and Android phones. It gives you the wonderful chance to work where and when you want to, letting you respond to important requests right away, from almost any place. With the ability to access email and documents from your smartphone or tablet, you don’t need to hurry to the office or look for a WIFI hot spot. And if you’re on the road, traveling in a remote location without access to Microsoft Office, Office 365 helps you view and edit documents from the browsers on Mac and PC. Office 365 gives you the power to work when and where you want to.

Simple to learn and easy to use

Microsoft Office 365 is easy to use, and quite simple to learn. The great thing about Office 365 is that you don’t need to learn new software, install complicated systems, or learn new jargon for you to harness its power. In just a few minutes, you can create a trial account and see how easily your business can be “in the cloud” with amazing functions usually found only in larger businesses.

Keep your stuff safe and secure

Microsoft is famous for making safety a priority in its data centers. With Office 365, you can use the same systems used by Microsoft and other big businesses worldwide to help protect your email, documents, and networks. These systems scan your messages and documents for spam and malware 24/7. Microsoft will help safeguard your data and they are certified to meet multiple industry-standard certifications.

You don’t need to be an IT whiz to use it

Microsoft Office 365 administration is designed for organizations with limited to no IT staff. With this in mind, you can easily set up and use the features, helping you focus on your business rather than on learning menus and technical jargon. Also, it allows you to do administrative tasks using an intuitive, web-based portal that is accessible only to people you give access to. The online portal also provides step-by-step instructions on how to add users and set up your account so your staff can quickly start using it.

Talk about flexibility

With Microsoft Office 365, you get pricing options that give you flexibility for the tasks you need for your biz. Office 365 also offers great flexibility by allowing you to easily use the services that you need, cost-effectively adding value to your business.
