Core Challenges

Without Microsoft 365, businesses potentially face several core challenges in productivity and collaboration. Firstly, without centralized tools like Outlook and Teams, communication and collaboration become fragmented, hindering teamwork and efficiency. Secondly, the absence of Office applications like Word and Excel limits document creation and data analysis capabilities, impacting decision-making and innovation. Thirdly, without cloud services like OneDrive and SharePoint, data storage and sharing become cumbersome, leading to version control issues and data silos.

Not knowing which license types are the most appropriate for each of your staff members can lead to excessive and unnecessary spending. Additionally, lacking a clear understanding of which licenses within your Microsoft tenant are NOT being used can cause organisations to spend much more than necessary.

Underutilisation of Microsoft 365 licences within an organisation can have significant repercussions on business efficiency and budget management. When licences are not fully utilised, it leads to a waste of resources and investment. Moreover, underutilised licences can signify missed opportunities to leverage the full suite of productivity tools and security features that Microsoft 365 offers, impacting employee productivity and collaboration.

Security presents a core challenge for MS365 due to the diverse threat landscape and the need to safeguard sensitive data across multiple devices and platforms. Ensuring robust security measures, including data encryption, multi-factor authentication, and regular threat assessments, is essential to protect against evolving cyber threats. We find a lot of businesses are unaware  of the security features available to them with their existing MS365 licenses.
