Microsoft Office 365 for CPA Firms
Presented by William Shilson
Presented by William Shilson
Microsoft Office 365 is just email and Office, right? Wrong!
Microsoft Office 365 is one of the most powerful productivity platforms available, but amongst accountancy firms, it is almost one of the most misunderstood and underappreciated. In fact, in our substantial experience of serving the IT needs of the accountancy industry, Calligo has found that of the firms that have adopted Office 365, fewer than 10% are using it fully.
The cost reductions and productivity opportunities that Microsoft Office 365 offers are remarkable, including VOIP calls, instant messaging and document sharing (Teams), online file storage and remote access (OneDrive), project management (Planner), extracting data insights (Power BI), discovering content across the entire suite of tools (Delve) and even automating workflows (Flow).
Like any professional services company, productivity and utilization are key for an accountancy firm. So many have taken the first step of trying to fix it, but so few are making the most of it. Join this webinar to discover how Microsoft Office 365 could change your business.
