Category: Office 365

In my opinion, Microsoft has with Microsoft 365 the complete set of tools in the market. It was known previously as Office 365, and it contains a lot of cool stuff for us to use. I’ll focus on a few of them here for now.
I write articles periodically for SharePoint, Microsoft Planner, Microsoft Teams. But I also publish stuff about Microsoft OneDrive, Microsoft Lists, and Microsoft Graph.
One thing I won’t talk about is licensing. Although Microsoft is doing a great job simplifying the pricing and tools that you have or do not have access to on Microsoft 365, it’s still quite complex and changes. So instead, I’ll focus on the best of the platform. You’ll make the best decisions about what makes sense to you.
