Office 365

Office 365 is Microsoft Office in the cloud. Office 365 is not a direct replica of Office. It has additional applications that make it more oriented to team work and internal communication. Being in the cloud it allows staff to access applications and data on multiple devices or locations e.g. an airport lounge computer.

Rather than an upfront fee, Office 365 plans are paid for on a subscription basis — monthly or annually.

Our team is qualified to set up and support of all aspects of Office 365. We can smoothly migrate all your existing information from onsite and cloud locations to Office 365. We can also manage the day to day administration tasks. We also provide training.
