Office365

Office 365 is continually evolving, expanding and improving – meaning new capabilities and opportunities, alongside the need to support adoption and manage change on an ongoing basis. Over the years I have been asked to do lots of On Premise current state assesments to help customers plan and check to ensure that their infrastructure is running optimally and meets current, and future, requirements.
