Why a Business Relationship with a Microsoft Certified Partner is Something You Want to Have

Since the late 1980s, Microsoft has consistently developed computer programs that meet a variety of common needs, with their toolsets becoming a staple in business environments everywhere. However, many of these tools tend to fly under the radar, despite the benefits that they can offer to businesses. Today, we wanted to highlight some of these solutions to demonstrate just a little of the value that working with an official Microsoft Partner (like us) can bring to your operations.

First, let’s spend some time getting to know a few of the tools that are included with most Microsoft subscriptions, and then we can discuss how working with us enables you to get the most out of your solutions.

Some of Microsoft’s Underappreciated Tools and Capabilities

There are many programs that Microsoft offers that, while included in most solution sets, are often underappreciated and underutilized—with many of their capabilities overlooked. However,  many of the solutions that are bundled into Microsoft’s offering can provide your business with some significant benefits.

Microsoft Teams

As business processes have evolved to bridge the gap between collaboration and workplace flexibility, Microsoft has developed the tools to keep up with these changes. One such solution: Microsoft Teams.

While Microsoft Teams came into its own during the pandemic and the embracing of remote work, your organization can still benefit from Teams as they return to the office. Teams can serve as your internal business communications platform, linking your workforce together to enable collaboration on documents and cooperative meetings. Having this space available will encourage your team members to work more cooperatively, producing things that are ultimately greater than what a single person could produce individually.

Microsoft OneNote

Microsoft OneNote was designed to be a comprehensive note-taking application, enabling your team members to organize their thoughts in a single, shareable space. Regardless of the format these notes take, OneNote gives your business somewhere to keep them together and organized. Innately sharable, OneNote is a great way to keep your team members on the same team. We can help your organization set up centralized notebooks that are secure and backed up.

Collaborative Functions and Features

You may have noticed a trend in the solutions we’ve reviewed thus far, as they have all been focused around a concept of teamwork and shared productivity. This is no coincidence, as Microsoft has exhibited a clear dedication to providing solutions intended for group cohesion and cooperative work. Nowadays, the majority of Microsoft’s solutions come with collaborative functionality baked in. Solutions such as Microsoft Office 365, SharePoint, and more, encourage communication, enabling more work to be done.
