What is Microsoft 365?

Office 365

Office 365 combines Microsoft’s Office Suite with Microsoft’s online services (Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, etc.). This powerful combination gives your organization a secure, productive, and mobile workplace.

Windows 10

Windows 10 is Microsoft’s most advanced operating system yet. To enumerate, the newest OS features biometric authorization, built-in anti-virus, malware protection, and drive encryption.

EM+S

Formerly Enterprise Mobility and Security, EM+S is a suite of security and management products. In short, these products provide advanced identity protection and management. To do this, they offer cloud-based endpoint management, information security, and advanced threat protection.

Intune

Intune is a cloud-based endpoint management platform for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. This provides powerful tools for end-users and IT. Moreover, these tools help manage and automate maintenance for the organization and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) devices.

Azure Active Directory

Azure Active Directory is an enterprise identity service that provides single sign-on and multi-factor authentication. Multi-factor authentication is probably the single most important cyber security threat protection you can implement.

Azure Information Protection

Azure Information Protection provides document and file protection. From the IT to the end-user, the organization can classify and protect data wherever it goes. Further, there are sharing controls that allow viewing and editing files, but not printing or forwarding.

Benefits of Microsoft 365

Streamlined IT

By combining your productivity software, OS, and endpoint management into a single platform, you streamline a large chunk of your IT environment. Consequently, this streamlining pays off by reducing the amount of reconciling your IT department needs to do each month.

Unified platform

Microsoft 365 is more than just a product bundle; it is a unified platform. The various components are designed as an integrated platform and products ship with built-in integrations from day one. As a result, your organization will spend less time trying to figure out how to piecemeal various vendors into a workable solution.

Security

At the end of the day, Microsoft 365 is a security product. Thus, It takes the productivity features and services that members of your organization need to do their job, and wraps them in a security blanket. In short, this blanket consists of multi-factor authentication, data protection, and AI-powered advanced threat protection.

Bundle pricing

It is a lot easier to get buy-in for an IT initiative when the price is right, and you can show positive ROI. Thankfully, Microsoft 365 gives you the benefit of bundle pricing. Depending on the Microsoft subscriptions that your organization already has, you may be able to save money by bundling. In addition to access to valuable services for a lower price.
