Application Highlights Microsoft Office 365 offers application mainly in two platforms Exchange Online and Application Online Exchange Online Microsoft Exchange is a mainstay application platform in enterprise organizations for management. In Office 365, it is no different, except for the fact that you no longer need to maintain onpremise Exchange servers, and have the best security available protecting your users and their , with the integrated ForeFront Protection for Microsoft Exchange, virus and malware outbreaks can become a thing of the past. All Exchange mailboxes come with a healthy 25 GB per-user storage capacity. Combined with local and network archiving, this should be more than enough for even the biggest users to need.

7 Common issues with Office 365 deployment Migrating to Office 365 is becoming increasingly popular among businesses both large and small. The upside of moving from an on-premises environment to one hosted online by Microsoft offers compelling benefits. But switcher beware: Early Office 365 adopters have come back from their migration path battle-worn by a slew of unexpected perils they encountered along the way. Let s discuss some of the key considerations to consider when assessing the downside of using the traditional on-premises method. Platform upgrades: Whether it s a small or a big size company, keeping your messaging and collaboration platforms up to date can be a daunting task, as well as a very highly expensive one. The length of time required to bring systems up to date, issues with rolling back patches and upgrades, and management of the migrations are three time-consuming and expensive issues. These require significant investments in time and money to handle these in an organization Common Issues with Office 365 Deployments Platform upgrades Storage challenges Extranet Deployments High availability Concern Server Sprawl Storage Challenges: Growing storage needs poses great challenges. The decision to purchase high-end storage will be expensive to purchase, as well as be expensive to maintain. Extranet Deployments: Security should be a major concern for all organizations, big or small. In today s fast paced and complex working environments, o require high end collaboration solutions for your clients, partners, and vendors. There are many considerations that need to be taken into account, and for a highly secure on-premise extranet environment, you may be looking at hundreds of thousands of dollars in investments to deploy and maintain a highly secure extranet deployments. High Availability: In every platform deployment, high availability should be a concern that is taken into account. If you are unable to retrieve your data or your message systems are down for long time, it will affect your business adversely. Server Sprawl: In your on-premise deployment of your messaging and collaboration platforms, you may have all types of hardware systems, including network file shares, Exchange servers, Lync servers, SQL servers, SharePoint Servers. In the case of one or more of these server deployments, 7

8 you may have development environments; integration testing environments; user acceptance and testing environments; production environments; backup environments for high availability; and each of these may consist of one or many virtual or physical servers. That is a lot of infrastructure to maintain. Microsoft Office 365 a smart choice for future business Office 365 has been quite robust now. Nearly 84% of organizations have a remote work force now.
