O365: The Advantages of Teams and SharePoint for Business

O365: The Advantages of Teams and SharePoint for Business




Business and management are stressful enough without having to worry about where to store or file a communication, or worse still trying to remember where you stored the communications you had last week.

It gets worse when you are part of a team and you need to know where everyone else is filing relative data. 

How long does it take to message or email a colleague to ask if they know who said what to a customer yesterday, or last month? 
How long does it take to get your reply?

It's not difficult to ensure that all communication is captured and catalogued to make sure that every team member has the full and current picture.

Store and Catalogue Using Office 365

  1. Data can be stored in SharePoint Lists. These are simple to create and use.
  2. Documents can be stored in SharePoint Libraries. Providing fast, secure access to communication
  3. Data from SharePoint Lists can be linked to SharePoint Libraries to ensure accurate data usage.
  4. Documents and data can be uploaded to Office 365 to make sure that everyone had the latest information at all times.
  5. Deploy List and Library View pages in Teams to focus both team and individual effort on maximum achievement.

Manage Security Simply and Effectively

Document access is handled at file owner level with options to leave unshared, share with view only or share with edit rights.
Adding users to a Team grants general access rights to items in Team libraries, but these can be overridden where necessary.
Last modified by user ID is always recorded and versioning means that document files can be rolled back to previous versions where necessary.

Powerful Workflow Management

Administrators and supervisors can see who last updated an item and when this was done. Well structured Lists and Libraries will also show how long an item has been with the current owner.
GDPR, PECR and data protection is also accommodated with visibility on item creation date and time, plus the facility to set full 'time - to - live' policies at List and Library level.

Find it when you need it.

Use SharePoint search when you need to locate a document or file. So easy to know what a customer or client has been offered or promised when all the data is there at your finger tips. Works on mobile devices too.

Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams – Not only but also... What is Teams? Chat, Meetings, Calling, Collaboration | Microsoft Teams That’s the legend that Microsoft uses to head their Google listing. And it does those things really well. But -  There’s more . Teams also delivers a gateway to the fabulous world of SharePoint file storage, SharePoint and Office 365 index and search and Office 365 file security. All without the need for technical knowledge or extensive configuration. All well and good... What exactly does that mean? When you create a new team, simply click the ‘Join or Create a Team’ box at the lower left of the teams window, you launch a new team that has all the necessary attributes. This includes a mailbox, chat, call and video meeting area and a SharePoint file space with a basic library. Move shared documents, of any type, into the library and they are shared with other team members (the share facility is configurable to exclude individuals in the team who do not have sufficient righ...

Security Don't worry about users accessing documents that are restricted. If you create or place a document into a Teams Document Library, it will be available to members of that Team by default. However, each document can be locked down to no access, view only or edit. You can also stop sharing any document, or alternatively share only with the members of the team you select. Users with whom the document has not been shared with will not be able to access it. Being More Specific   That's fine if you know which Credit C...

O365: Create a SharePoint-On-Line Library

O365 is a tremendous resource. It can serve a business better when SharePoint on-line libraries are used as a repository for files and documents on which collaboration is required.  Instead of circulating documents for input by different users, simply save them to a SharePoint library where selected personnel can access them for update. Creating a library is a simple process which needs no technical expertise greater than the ability to use a computer. For this exercise we will create and start to populate a library for storing invoice documents.  Select the Site  An O365 domain can contain many sites. Libraries and Lists within a site can be made to interact with one another so data can be readily shared across the site and recycled. For example, if we choose to create a Customer List within a site and we populate the list with customer names and addresses we can allow other libraries and lists within the site to access and use the name and address data. So, the first jo...
