Microsoft 365 Hacks
Nowadays, Microsoft 365 applications can be found on almost any PC within an organization. However, are all users also familiar with the various practical tips and tricks that can make their day-to-day work so much easier? Our QuickAccess digital assistant – also known as “the orange” – displays context-specific guides at the moment of need for the Microsoft application being used at the time. These concise, easy-to-understand guides take the user through the application step by step.
To keep you up to speed, we’d like to share our Microsoft 365 hacks with you each month. You’ll get to know the latest features and discover new tips that you can apply directly to your everyday work.
What’s more, as a Microsoft Empowerment maintenance customer, you can enjoy automatic access to the Microsoft 365 hacks every month via the download portal.
Microsoft 365 applications and services are essential for most digital workplaces, but digital workplaces aren’t just about writing emails or creating PowerPoint presentations. Staff often also need to grapple with ERP, CRM, PLM and other systems – and this is precisely where “digital adoption” comes into play. This term describes the harmonization of staff, processes and technologies. It is only when these three cogs mesh together perfectly that new tools and software are used correctly and their potential is truly understood. Solutions such as QuickAccess help boost digital adoption in your organization – regardless of whether it’s SAP S/4HANA, Salesforce or Microsoft 365, etc.
