- Microsoft 365 has really been effective and cost saving option for our organization in terms of managing the mailboxes, collaboration and messaging.
- There is multiple must have features which comes all together in one package and therefore is cost effective.

Best Office Productivity Suite
- Allows users to improve efficiency on daily tasks
- Allows users to organize meetings, share information and define tasks
- Enhanced security and reliability of documents stored on One Drive
- I don't know the hard numbers for this so I can't determine the actual ROI.
- Suspect it's positive, but can't prove it. Suspect based on the fact we're still using it.

Microsoft 365: Making Virtual Work Easier Than Ever
Score 8 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
- It has helped keep the high-energy culture my company has since it allows easy communication and calls.
- Positively impacts responses from clients, since we can see how many times they have been contacted. (the more someone is contacted, the less likely they are to respond. Microsoft helps make sure we all know who and who not to contact)
- positively impacts my ability to focus, since you can mute notifications. Since I look at my computer all day, it is helpful to lock in and not get distracted by the many emails I receive a day. You can also change preferences, so emails with high urgency are still seen.

Love MicroSoft 365... gets my work done in Micro Time!!!
- Positively, it has increased productivity and efficiency in creating templates and being able to systemize some of the protocols we are working on putting into place.
- It has been a positive as well as most individuals and companies that we associate with also use MicroSoft 365 and therefore there is no need to have formats change in our documents when they open them up using another type of program.
- Getting work done quickly.... One and Done!!!

"Aside From The Features And Best Value That Is Used Daily"
- It has the incredible ability to risk management and data sharing. It was possible to access email through Microsoft 365 without infecting other computers when ransomware was hit.
- It's a widely used tool, so no training is required, and not requiring IT to load all programs on machines physically increases efficiency.
- Saving money by having one package for the whole company reduces costs and increases our ability to go paperless.

Excellent Program for Your Company Needs
- Since my hiring in 2019, I have brought the use of Excel into the payroll almost exclusively. Excel lets me insert formulas that are different for each line. It lets me sort from Alphabetical to Depts with ease. Saves time and money by not missing any pay, which in turn would result in added expense in wiring wages.
- I appreciate the fact I can save a Word file into a PDF for a more permanent form.
- Outlook is reliable. This program is also used on my personal computer at home. In fact all of Office is.

24/7 - 365
- I don't have any ROI info because I am a technical staff who does not see those numbers. I will say that we are constantly using Teams/Outlook especially with the pandemic and digital collaboration has been made possible with Microsoft 365. As the work culture changes, our firm really leaned into this suite to adapt and change with it.
