2. 1
ACCESS MICROSOFT OFFICE FILES FROM ANYWHERE
No more lugging your laptop everywhere just so you can access that Excel spreadsheet on
your hard drive. With all of your files stored in OneDrive and full-featured Office apps on all
your devices, you can work on documents anytime, from anywhere, even at your daughter’s
soccer game (during halftime, of course).
3. 2
MAKE MEETINGS MORE PRODUCTIVE
OneNote’s integration with Outlook dramatically improves the note-taking process. Capture
your meeting notes in OneNote, then pull in meeting details from your Outlook calendar, such
as time, location and attendees, for a more accurate record. Share your notes with the other
participants via OneNote and invite them to add their own notes or any new thoughts or ideas.
4. 3
EDIT PDF CONTENT IN WORD
One of the most practical benefits of Office 365 is that you can edit PDF content in a
Word document, thereby enabling you to easily transfer information from the PDF to
Word, such as a chart or table, without losing any formatting.
5. 4
HOLD BUSINESS-CLASS VIDEOCONFERENCES
Whether you have a few remote employees or your workplace is entirely virtual, staying connected is
critical. Skype for Business lets you hold unlimited online meetings with participants from multiple
locations. And enterprise-class features like HD video, desktop sharing and real-time whiteboarding
allow you to collaborate with others like you’re in the same room — even when you’re miles apart.
6. 5
TROUBLESHOOT IT PROBLEMS IN SECONDS
What if one of your employees gets locked out of email late one night while on a deadline?
Normally, you’d have to return to the office or remotely log in to the network to troubleshoot
the problem. With the Office 365 admin center, you can access a slate of commonly used IT
features right from your phone. Just reset that user’s password, and they’re back in business.
7. 6
SCALE WITH YOUR BUSINESS
Office 365 makes it easy to navigate the turnover that all small businesses experience. Since
you pay for Office 365 per user, it’s easy and affordable to add or transfer licenses. If someone
finds a new job or you have somebody else come on board, it’s just a click of a button in your
admin portal and you can switch the license from user to user. And with no balloon payments
or long-term contracts, you get flexibility that’s friendly to your budget.
8. 7
STORE AND SYNC ALL YOUR WORK FILES
If you’re backing up your data, you’re probably using a piecemeal system of USB hard drives and
mini storage servers. Office 365 saves on your computer resources and reduces everyday hassles
by giving each user 1TB of cloud storage to store and sync all their files. Not only does this simplify
the sharing and updating of your work files due to version control and history information, but
your business data is securely stored in the cloud.
