help us be more collaborative? How difficult
will it be for people to get onboarded?
These are all common – and valid –
questions that come to mind when thinking
about putting a new cloud productivity
solution into play.

But rest assured, Microsoft 365 makes it


easier and more secure to create, share
and work together. Plus, it includes popular
Microsoft apps like Word and Excel.

In this eBook, you’ll learn seven ways that


moving to the cloud with Microsoft 365
can help you work smarter and be more
productive, while saving time and money.

More than just apps like Word and Excel,


Microsoft 365 is the cloud productivity
solution designed for businesses, bringing
benefits like co-authoring, version control
and instant, secure access to files from
anywhere (even offline) with OneDrive.
Plus, you can install Microsoft 365 on up to
five PCs or Macs, up to five mobile devices
(including Windows, Android and iOS
devices), and up to five tablets. So if you’re
out and about and suddenly need to edit
a PowerPoint from your tablet, it’s no issue.
And if you’re offline, the update to the
file will sync on all devices as soon as you
connect to the internet.
