Managed Microsoft 365:
The basis for the Modern Workplace
Microsoft 365 is Microsoft’s comprehensive Software as a Service (SaaS) solution for creating an efficient modern working environment. It includes everything from the dependable Windows OS to the Office 365 communication and collaboration platform along with the Enterprise Mobility and Security management and security solution. Although businesses can effortlessly sign up for all of this on just a web page, Microsoft 365 demands thorough preparation and configuration before it’s ready for an enterprise-wide deployment.
As with any mission-critical IT infrastructure component, Microsoft 365 demands the highest level of operational proficiency and expertise from professionals who have an in-depth understanding of the software. The platform requires meticulous maintenance and constant updates to its features. Administrators must also carefully evaluate new functionalities and determine which groups of users will benefit most from them, as well as devise the best approach to implementing these changes. Moreover, they must also establish effective support channels for communicating with Microsoft in the event of any unexpected issues.

FAQ: Managed Microsoft 365
Implementing Microsoft 365 can prove to be an overwhelming task for many organizations due to the various solutions and components available that must align with company culture, business processes, and user abilities. However, there are practical steps to simplify this process such as creating a strategic roadmap and gradually rolling out functions in smaller, manageable steps. Yet, for those new to Microsoft 365, gaining practical experience can be challenging, requiring patience and persistence.
Microsoft 365 offers the advantage of a Software as a Service (SaaS) operational model, delivering software through the cloud with regular updates and expansions. However, some enterprise customers mistakenly believe this eliminates the need for a dedicated team to handle system administration and daily operations post-transition. This perception is unrealistic, particularly considering the specialized cloud expertise now essential. The modern workplace, facilitated through cloud delivery, differs significantly from legacy environments built on traditional, on-premises technology. Given the scarcity of this expertise within many organizations, Managed Microsoft 365 Services emerge as a viable solution.
