The Top 5 Office 365 Collaboration Tools You Need in Your Workspace

Office 365 is Microsoft’s latest business technology product and includes some of the most versatile and game-changing programs available to business owners. However, it can be difficult to narrow down what software is right for your needs in the ever-expanding marketplace.

Let’s take a look at the top 5 Office 365 software packages you need in your workspace.

 

Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams is the fastest growing app in the Microsoft market, and for good reason. Serving as a one-stop shop for corporate synergy and collaboration, Teams turns traditional Microsoft services like Word, Excel, and Powerpoint into cloud-based tools that can be accessed by anyone anywhere.

Best of all, business owners can install their favorite third-party tools, which means the content possibilities are endless.

 

SharePoint Online

SharePoint Online allows for rapid content collaboration and development, but the real appeal is in its scalability.

While other software may handle dozens of employees, SharePoint Online is the only 365 software that can manage your entire company, with many corporate intranets relying on SharePoint to handle the increased user base.

 

Yammer

Business strategies are always changing to the needs of the market, and your team needs a streamlined communication software that can help them pivot at a moment’s notice.

Yammer provides all of these solutions and more with its user-friendly interface and advanced social media features. Managers and staff members can now communicate and collaborate faster than ever before.

 

Planner

Planning is integral to your team’s success, but how do you manage the responsibilities of a large group of people while keeping up-to-date?

Planner is the next step in project management software and is a dream come true for employers everywhere. Providing colorful displays to communicate the roles of each employee, it serves as an easy-to-use space that will keep you informed on the progress of your company’s goals.

 

OneNote

Just finished an important meeting with a client but worried about recording everything that was covered?

With OneNote, company teams are able to access and edit the same documents from different computers whenever they need, meaning you and your staff won’t ever miss an important piece of information or waste time comparing notes after every meeting.
