New Microsoft Online Services Business Value Whitepaper just published
I have not had time to read the entire document, but this seems to have some nice updated information on MOS and BPOS business value (as the name suggests). Please take a look. This is one you will want to add to your tool bag for BPOS discussions with customers.
Microsoft Online Services Business Value Whitepaper
Some good bullets from the abstract…
The benefits of Microsoft Online Services include:
· Better control of IT technology investments. Buy only what you need now, and add more as your business grows.
· Better cash flow management: no upfront cash investment in costly in-house hardware and software.
· Simplified software subscription license management for attractive pricing and a predictable cost.
· A Microsoft commitment to deliver secure, available, and private online software services, financially backed by a 99.9-percent availability service-level agreement (SLA) and certified by third-party audit.
· Increased productivity. Robust integration among Online Services, and with existing on-premises software, empowers your users with rich communication and collaboration.
· Access to the latest business productivity software services from Microsoft. As new versions of the software are released, your users can start using them immediately—with no deployment delay.
Worth reading? I think so.
Cheers,
