Every business organisation be it small, medium or large should have some form of IT setup for the ongoing smooth functioning of its business operations.
However, to have an IT setup you need have an investment in resources and therefore, it is crucial that you make this investment decision wisely.
Now, in the case of Microsoft Office 365, sure there is an option of direct purchase.
So, you could purchase, install and try to get Office 365 setup and working flawlessly without any external assistance at all throughout your whole business.
But can you afford the time to setup it up properly?
Then maintain and manage this service on its own as well as all of the other IT requirements that go along with running and building a business?
The answer to this question above nine times out of ten will be no.
As a business owner you need to spend your time where your business most needs it, not trying to figure out why someone’s emails still aren’t coming through after 4 hours of head scratching.
This part of your business should be easy, not hard and that’s where we come in.
With Greendata Managed IT Services as your Managed Service Provider, the setup, installation, and maintenance of Office 365 and more can be taken care of for you as part of a wholistic technology plan for you business.
What’s Microsoft Office 365?
Simply put, Microsoft office 365 is a cloud service, offering you a portfolio of Microsoft’s productivity tools such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint and more.
It also provides applications and collaborative services like Exchange Online for email and calendar, SharePoint Online, OneDrive, Teams, Yammer, Skype for Business and also many others that can be setup individually to help your business.
Overall, this complete package of cloud services increases business productivity, efficiency, and allows for easy information sharing for you while at home, in your office and while you are on the move saving you time and money.
What is Managed Services for Office 365?
Primarily, in a managed service environment, Greendata (Managed Service Provider or MSP) is solely responsible for managing the functionality of your IT services and equipment.
After setup, you only pay a set monthly service fee so the whole process becomes effortless for you and you know what your costs are monthly too.
In the case of Office 365, Greendata provides managed services to businesses freeing them from the stress of service installation and continual configuration.

What services are by Managed Service Provider?
In relation to Office 365, Greendata (your MSP) manages all the work required when changing over to Office 365 and then manages these services for you from then on.
This is so you don’t have to worry about it.
The initial work includes getting to know you and your business, what you want to achieve as well as finding out what plans would work best for you.
