Communication can be challenging for businesses with multiple locations, as well as those with sales and field services teams that are rarely in the office.  Trying to set up meetings or share time-sensitive information with such busy colleagues can be difficult.  There is a simple, inexpensive fix to the seemingly endless email chains and empty seats at your weekly meetings – Microsoft Office® 365.

Trying to share information can be difficult when your colleagues are in and out of the office or shared between multiple offices.  Getting to information can be just as difficult for your sales and field services team.  This communication gap can create delays with entering data into your business software solution as well as keeping appraised on important business activities.  As you grow your business, maintaining direct lines of communication becomes more important which is why it may be time to introduce a new technology.

If you are pushing the boundaries of your current technology, have limited IT support, and are already familiar with Microsoft Office®, then you may be interested in Microsoft Office 365.  This affordable solution can provide access to your Office applications from nearly any location and on nearly any device, including laptops, tablets, and smartphones.  Office 365 also offers features that will make communication and collaboration easier – video conferencing, shared calendars, business-class email, and the ability to share documents.  You can use Office 365 to view the schedules of your colleagues and set up a meeting time that is convenient for everyone.  You can also use videoconferencing to connect with field teams who simply can’t be at the office for your meeting.  Finally, you can use Office 365 to share commonly used forms or documents which can improve consistency within operations, as well as improve productivity.  Office 365 includes spam and malware protection, data backup and redundant data centers, as well as a 99.9% uptime guarantee.  A quick implementation process can get you and your team up and running in no time.

When your team does their best work outside of the office, you may not want to call them back in.  Contact Premier Computing, Inc. for more information about improving communication and collaboration with Microsoft Office 365.
