Well, if you’ve been keeping up with the latest
Microsoft news, you might have heard that MS has been pretty excited about their upcoming release of Office in the Cloud –
Office 365. In a nutshell:
- we’re talking Microsoft Office suite, Exchange, SharePoint, and Lync (instant messaging and presence) being offered ‘online’ with pay-as-you-go pricing
- we’re talking no more server patching, updating, or upgrading
- we’re talking a subscription-based option for businesses that want to purchase Office
- we’re talking about cloud services being offered to public schools as a no-cost or low-cost hosted service
- we’re talking access to all your productivity tools and enterprise data wherever you go, across PC, phone, and browser
