SharePoint Online is Microsoft’s cloud version of the server-based web application. It is rapidly becoming one of our favorite cloud productivity tools to deploy for customers. If you’ve been through the many phases of SharePoint over the years, you’ll know that the platform has grown immensely. This growth can be good for customers who can fully embrace new technology. However, it may be hard for most people to wrap their heads around… even IT experts.
At its core of content generation and collaboration, using SharePoint on Office 365 kicks it up a notch to provide full modern office solutions. SharePoint Online gives users a truly seamless integration of their Office applications and data. It also allows access from anywhere on any device and provides first-class security protection. And as a system engineer who supports server applications, I can tell you that we all love cloud-based applications. No more late night patching of servers and no more early morning downtime calls.
Are you planning your on-premises migration to SharePoint Online?
If you’re moving SharePoint data, file shares, or even Google Drive data: eGroup’s tool of choice is Sharegate.
