Modern workplace needs are changing, the office applications we all know and love need to evolve to cater to them. Businesses need to enable their teams to work anywhere, at any time, and give them secure access to essential apps and data.

Microsoft 365 for business provides all of Microsoft’s fundamental productivity apps in one package that can be accessed or altered 24/7. Purchased through a subscription-based model, Microsoft 365 is ideal for businesses with hybrid working environments needing a modern solution.

What is Microsoft 365 for business?

Microsoft 365 consists of cloud-based versions of Word, PowerPoint, Excel and more. It combines all these familiar apps into a single, scalable package that provides a cost-effective, secure, and collaborative solution for the modern working gripes of hybrid and remote workforces.

Instead of buying standalone software packages for everyone in your business, you can alter your packages in one subscription model in minutes to meet the demand of your business.

Why use Microsoft 365?

Still not ready to step away from traditional working? Here are five more benefits of integrating Microsoft 365 with your business:

Peace of mind with enterprise level security

Protect your business from spam, fishing, and security attacks with Microsoft 365. Enterprise level security features are standard with all Microsoft subscriptions.

Advanced apps like Enterprise Mobility and Security offer businesses superior protection against security threats. Recently, Microsoft fought off one of the largest DDoS attacks on record, highlighting the level of protection Microsoft provides businesses, especially in an environment where cybercrime rates are rapidly rising.

Never lose a file with Microsoft 365

Access files securely from anywhere and any device. After purchasing Microsoft 365 licences, you’ll receive 1TB of free cloud storage.

OneDrive’s cloud storage also means your team can access and share files from anywhere and any device. Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is now a viable option for employees needing to make quick changes or approve documents on the go.

Unite hybrid and remote workers

Facilitate communication, empower collaboration, and cater to your employees needs with cloud computing. With live editing, every document is the single source of truth, and centralised storage on SharePoint and OneDrive means employees can easily access, trust, and share documents.

SharePoint can be integrated with other Microsoft 365 apps to provide a seamless working experience for remote and office-based workers.

Support innovation with social capabilities

Microsoft 365’s suite of business communication apps is ideal for encouraging team collaboration.

With Microsoft Teams, users can set up different groups and discussion threads specific to departments or projects. Employees can link to project folders from SharePoint or OneDrive and share their Outlook calendar directly in the conversation.
