October 11, 2016 Meeting
Topic: “The Most Advanced Office 365 Management Suite” – Join representatives from 4ward as they discuss winning strategies for bringing on-cloud and hybrid deployments under control.
Speaker: Valentine Vasquez (Principal Solution Architect) AND Carl Baumann (CEO).
Meeting Abstract: During this session we will discuss how companies who have executed or planning transitions to Office 365 can get the most out of their investments. As administrators pivot from day to day support tasks on-prem, they can afford to devote more efforts to management on-cloud. Learn how role based action controls, advanced license optimization, and user level auditing can be leveraged to control your cloud.
