With 2014 in the rear-view and 2015 offering a fresh take, now's the perfect time to make changes to your business' productivity. Microsoft Cloud and the Office 365 platform is becoming more and more attractive for both enterprise clients and small businesses, but finding a plan and setup that works best for you and your budget is important. Here are Vorsite's 4 Office 365 tips for the New Year:
Select the Right Plan
Small business cloud plans limit you to 25 users, so if you're over that limit or getting very close, you might want to consider a mid-sized plan (up to 300 users). There's no limit to the E3 and E4 plans, so if you want to shoot for the moon, that's certainly available to you.
Migrate Smart
Go for a clean migration to Office 365 with a simple cloud-only option, which won't require a lot of technical mumbo-jumbo. If you've already got an Active Directory, you'll need Azure Active Directory to connect it to Windows Azure.
Synchronize Passwords
Microsoft's got a handy tool in Dirsync called Password Sync, which doesn't actually bring over passwords themselves - just cached and re-generated after the hand-off.
Customize Office 365 for Your Needs
If you're a business owner, you know that the best software in the world means nothing if it doesn't serve you and your business. With a specialty setup that's designed for your business needs and your budget, you can bring your productivity to the 21st century.
