AGENDA: A-Team 365

• Your road to Office 365

• Developing your strategy

• A review of the A-Team 365 offering

Road to Office 365

General intent statements we hear in the market:

I need…

• A secure method to store my mail

• A way to communicate better with my staff and clients

• A place to store my documents, surface my data, and share data with clients

Road to Office 365

As SharePoint continues to expand its footprint,

companies are demanding flexible architectures

to help them better meet internal and external

collaboration needs

• Reducing costs

• Reducing headcount

• Doing more with less

• Focusing less on traditional IT activities and more on

activities that will help drive the business forward
