How to Get the Most from Office 365
Duration: 90 minutes
Speaker: Melissa Esquibel
Webinar Description
Office 365 is the new Office. From the new “software as a service” model to the multiple ways you can work with your files and apps, Office 365 can be a bit of a shock to an organization. Whether you’ve already rolled out Office 365 or are just considering it for your organization, there is likely a lot of confusion around what exactly it is, how the change will affect all the hard work you’ve already done, and what these new things, such as Teams and Planner, are and do. This informative session will demystify what is and is not Office 365, how you can use the tools to revolutionize your work processes, what the impact might be coming from older versions of Office or G Suite, and more.
If you are in a position to influence the way Office 365 gets rolled out in your organization, you’ll be better equipped to communicate your requirements. If you’re already in Office 365, you’ll know how best to leverage all these great tools to make your life easier and your work processes faster.
