How to use Office 365, Yammer & SharePoint to Get Work Done

Migrating or moving to Office 365 or upgrading to SharePoint 2013? Great, but what about the end users?

• How will Office 365/SharePoint fit into how they work?
• How will you introduce it?
• How will you communicate the benefits?
• How will you get the most out of it?
• How will your users keep up with the massive changes coming up in the next 12-18 months?

Problems with technology like Office 365 and SharePoint (and especially with migrations) always, always come from a mix of poor training, poor communication, poor usability and a lack of understanding of how users work. People are shoehorned into using it based on the how the platform was designed and built. They are not shown properly how to use it for their jobs.

‘Sustainable adoption’ is what it’s all about. There is no magic bullet, no single or simple solution. And it won’t happen overnight either.

We can show you how to use SharePoint, Office 365 (and Yammer) to get your employees working smarter and be more engaged.

And what’s coming up in Office 365 over the next 12+ months?
Delve, Office Graph, next gen portals, microsites, Groups, video, etc. It’s like a rollercoaster. And these will all appear in the tenants of your clients very soon. How will their users manage it all and be productive? How will those migrations work out for users? We can help you with that challenge.
