Most companies are underutilizing their Microsoft 365 stack, which means they’re missing out on all the benefits it can provide.
Microsoft 365 includes dozens of applications, such as:
- Microsoft Teams
- OneDrive
- SharePoint
- Exchange
- Word
- Excel
- Access
- Stream
- Power Virtual Agents
- And more
Without the support of a Cloud Solution Provider like Sikich, managing these applications and the infrastructure required to support them falls on the backs of your IT team, leaving them with little time to manage strategic initiatives.
What is a Cloud Solution Provider?
A Cloud Solution Provider like Sikich offers support for cloud-based platforms, infrastructures, applications and storage. The right Cloud Solution Provider will tailor these tools to the needs of their clients, keeping industry, company size and technology requirements in mind. A Cloud Solution Provider allows companies to access services, applications and support that they may not be able to access on their own.
Benefits of a Cloud Solution Provider for Microsoft 365
A Cloud Solution Provider helps companies leverage Microsoft 365 applications more effectively. Benefits include:
Reduced risk and costs
Not everyone needs everything they have access to in their instance of Microsoft 365.
Sikich stays ahead of the curve; our architects know what software and license changes are coming from Microsoft so that we can help our clients choose the best setup for them.
Sikich offers an annual productivity assessment of M365 tenant and licensing to ensure that clients pay for only what they need. Our consultants and solution architects review license usage, the license types assigned and storage needs.
They then make recommendations to optimize costs and tool usage so that our clients get the most out of their applications. Sikich is also a New Commerce Experience (NCE) partner, which lets clients consolidate M365 and Dynamics licensing.
Amp up cybersecurity
Even cloud applications require attention to cybersecurity. Sikich’s cybersecurity experts can prevent breaches through our risk assessments and can respond to breaches if they occur through incident response plans. Lean on Sikich’s cybersecurity team for remediation.
