How can your team work remotely?
Creating a modern workplace with Microsoft 365 will allow you to access:
- Outlook, Emails to stay up to date
- SharePoint is a place to save and access all of your work files from anywhere with an internet connection.
- Collaborate with your team in real-time on Microsoft Word documents, Excel and PowerPoint, even when you’re all in different locations!
- Teams to chat via instant messaging, share important files to team groups you have made (this could be different departments) and make phone and video calls and even share your screen with your team. If you’re not already using Teams but have a Microsoft 365 license you will be able to download the app onto your laptop and mobile and access all of its features for free.
A modern workplace is a digital and physical space that meets the needs of your business and users, meaning you can continue to work as you would in the office, anytime, any place. All you need is a secure internet connection.
If you don’t have an Microsoft 365 subscription, there is a free version of Teams available for up to 300 users. Alternatively, in response to the increased need for employees to work from home, Microsoft has released a free 6-month trial of Teams that lets an IT Admin roll out the application to users. However, if you already have Office 365 Business Premium or Enterprise E3, then it comes packed with even more features. If you’re interested in trialling a free Microsoft 365 license, get in touch!
