Modern Workplace Training Platform for Microsoft 365
Training and adoption is one of the key elements in a modern workplace. Traditional training methods involve lengthy, pre-planned sessions that often take a full day to complete. In a modern workplace, learning is an ongoing journey, and training should support users along the way. That’s why we’ve partnered with Brainstorm to include Quickhelp in Modern Workplace.
Quickhelp is an online training platform designed for Microsoft 365. It provides training materials for all Microsoft 365 products in an easy-to-use format, such as short 1–2 minute videos that users can consume at their own pace. Quickhelp drives adoption of 365, enabling organisation initiatives like powering a remote workforce, going paperless, and reducing travel—all of which require your team to be efficient in collaboration tools. With Quickhelp, staff can be quickly trained on tools like Microsoft Teams and SharePoint without the pressure and time commitment of classroom-style learning.
Organisations can empower staff to be more proficient and better utilise the software tools already in use.
Modern Workplace Security and Compliance
We include Endpoint Security Software in all tiers of our support which includes:
- Go beyond traditional antivirus with enterprise-grade protection and vulnerability management for your Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android™ devices.
- Automatically detect and respond to cyberthreats with AI-powered endpoint protection for all your devices – whether working in the office or remotely.
Our Modern Workplace service includes powerful automation tools that enable us to assess and apply standardised security and compliance baselines to Devices, Users and Microsoft 365 Applications. The result is an increased security posture and capability to continuously assess and apply new security features as they become available.
