Get control of Microsoft 365

on by

From March to June of 2020 reported usage of Microsoft Teams increased by a phenomenal 600-800%. It’s undeniable that the way we work together in Microsoft 365 has rapidly changed in the past 12 months, brings opportunities but also many challenges. But these challenges faced in Microsoft 365 are not particularly new – if anything it has only brought into sharp-focus many of the common issues organisations and users have to deal with in their Microsoft environments.

Here is just a sample of some of considerations many face:

  • Search and discoverability – making sure things are structured so it’s easy to find the information you need
  • SharePoint vs Teams – which one to use when, and how
  • Teams bloat – sudden, uncontrolled proliferation of Teams sites and channels
  • Security and risk in Teams – guests, access and permissions

All of this makes Information Governance of Microsoft 365 even more important than ever before, as you need to consider how to effectively adopt new ways of working into your existing Microsoft 365 environment, and possibly need to remediate information structures that were built as a quick response to fast changing situations.

Metataxis has been working with a number of clients over the past 12 months to help make these sorts of transitions as painless as possible.
