  • "They can improve their training materials."

What is our primary use case?

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for document functions, and finance-related tasks, and Excel for calculations and accounting purposes. Additionally, PowerPoint comes into play for creating presentations.

How has it helped my organization?

It has helped us to work collaboratively. We can now connect a user to work with us and share functions like a team. For example, users can share data, conduct meetings online or communicate with the other company. The environment is really beneficial. 

What is most valuable?

The software can be used on any device or any form which is a really big benefit. Changing to Microsoft 365 Business was really important. The products work really well on stand-alone systems. We share our issues with the Microsoft team and they really help us. The team and work culture have the required experience to cater to all our needs. 

What needs improvement?

They can improve their training materials. Sometimes, seniors are busy, so Microsoft should build training materials in local languages and add more features based on them so that there is a better understanding of functions and features. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I would rate the solution’s stability a nine out of ten.

Just one person is required for the deployment. Two people are required for the maintenance. The deployment involves downloading the package from the cloud, installing it on the system, and is followed by the completion of setup. I would rate the setup a nine out of ten. 

What other advice do I have?

I think it is a good solution, however, it requires an understanding of function materials. We use Microsoft almost every day with almost 130 users and in case we have more employees, we are looking to increase the usage. I would rate this product an eight out of ten overall.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Public Cloud

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
