    Productivity with Managed

    Office 365For businesses large and small, relying on a

    cloud-based collaboration and productivity suite such as Microsoft Office 365 is becoming the

    norm. If you are looking to enhance productivity in your organization using Office 365, here are ten things to look at, including the value that NaviSite

    can provide as your managed services provider.

    QuIck TIPs:

    1 Working mobile has changed. We dont only use our smartphones and tablets when we are out of the officewe use them all the time, constantly switching back and forth. Thats why, with Office 365, Microsoft is investing heavily in optimizing how its applications appear and perform on any device. Interfaces are more visual than ever. And searching, sharing and communicating have all been streamlined.

    cloud First, Mobile First

    2 A major change in Office 365and a real productivity-plusis the ability to launch features and capabilities for one application from inside another one. For example, you can send an Outlook email or launch a Skype call from directly within Word. Instead of opening and closing applications, you now might find yourself getting things done simply by highlighting a word or clicking on a link.

    synergy

    3 In a world where many people may never be in the same office, much less actually meet in person, the ability to collaborate is essential. With Office 365, multiple people can work on the same file at the same time, see each others edits and track different versions.

  • 6 As you use Office 365, its constantly learning about your needs and preferences. Outlook Clutter tries to learn how you like your emails handled. Office Delve recommends content relevant to your work. Instead of relying on you to customize your software settings, Office 365 is getting the smarts to do that all on its own.

    smarter Office Apps

    7 Among all the Office applications, none has attracted more derision over the years than PowerPoint. PowerPoint is still there in Office 365, but so is Sway, which Microsoft calls a digital storytelling app. Instead of individual slides, Sway is based around a storyline. And its relentlessly cloud focused: use Sway to import pictures from Facebook, YouTube, tweets and other content without having to leave the app.

    Tell a story

    8 Email attachments have always been a mixed blessing: while the transmission is instant, the attachment is out there forever, frozen in time. Not anymore. With Office 365, instead of attaching the actual document, you share a link. Keep working on the document and your recipients will always see the latest version. You can also set controls on security and further sharing.

    Reinventing the Email Attachment

    9 Ask people to rate their all-time, favorite Office app and Outlook Calendar often heads the list. And it gets better with Office 365, helping to ensure that everyone stays in sync whether they are at their desk or on the go, providing access to personal and organizational schedules.

    choosing Managed Office 365 from Navisite

    5 If your approach to project management involves a spreadsheet, email threads and lots of sticky notes you will want to look at Office 365 Planner. It offers a simple and highly visual way to organize your projects: create plans, organize and assign tasks, share files, chat and get updates on progress. Your plan can be just a list of tasks or a fully-blown out schedule with budgets, time estimates, completion dependencies and more.

    4 A focus on group and team productivitynot just personal productivityis one of the biggest differences that Office 365 has over previous versions of Microsoft solutions. Groups have access to conversations, shared files and a shared notebook. Files get associated with the group and not with specific people. You can also share with people who are not a part of your corporate organization.
