Microsoft 365 Community Conference IT session spotlight

If you are an IT admin who is responsible for deploying, configuring, and securing Microsoft 365 in your organization, you don’t want to miss this year’s Microsoft 365 Community Conference in Orlando, Florida on April 30 – May 2.  It’s a great opportunity to hear from Microsoft experts, MVPs (Microsoft Most Valuable Professional), and peer business leaders in the community about the latest innovations and best practices that help them thrive. 

 

Ensuring you have the right set of productivity tools is crucial in the rapidly accelerating business climate where competition is rife and having an edge can make all the difference.
