M365 Integration Erfordert Umfassende Change-Strategie und Technische Vorbereitung

4.0
Nov 10, 2025
M365 bietet eine moderne Collaboration and Communication Plattform an, die auch Security und Datenmanagement Möglichkeiten bietet. Mit einer E5 Lizenz kann die aktuelle Security Anforderungen umsetzen und den Anwendern einen abgesicherten Tenant für die Zusammenarbeit bereitstellen. Die 3 Säulen sind Apps for Enterprise (Office Suite), Exchange Online und Sharepoint Online, neben vielen anderen Webservices. Das Zusammenspiel der Werbserivces mit den Grundlegenenden Services verstehen die Anwender noch nicht komplett, weshalb eine Change Management Strategie notwendig ist. Änderungen in M365 sind, je nach gewähltem Update Channel, schnell oder schneller, und Anwender teilen sich in Förderer, Neutral und Wiederständler auf. Es gilt alle Anwender auf Ihrem Level abzuholen, Informationen bereitzustellen, Schulungen anzubieten und einen ausführlichen Kommunikationsplan zu erstellen. Technisch ist M365 eine Herausforderung. Für eine Nutzung der Services werden abgesicherte Identitäten in EntraID und abgesicherte Endgeräte in Intune Endpoint Manager benötigt. Weiter ist ein auf M365 optimiertes Netzwerk eine weitere Voraussetzung für eine gute Performance.

What Your Peers Are Saying About Microsoft 365

Director of Architecture
I am looking for some suggestions on Project Management Solutions. This solution should provide things like: - Support both Waterfall and Agile methodologies - Automation workflows - Task Breakdowns - Integrates with Microsoft 365 technology stack.   We are a $10B Financial Institution currently using SmartSheet looking to evaluate a newer and more scalable solution.
Director of Operations
Azure DevOps has decent connectivity with Microsoft365.  While it's not designed for waterfall, there's nothing that prevents you from using it that way.  There's a plethora of plugins and customizations that may help you do what you want.  I agree with Pranay below, there may not be one single provider that can check all the boxes.

What is the roadmap and future development plans of Copilot for Microsoft 365 and the alternative AI tools?
Information Security Analyst
We have been quite aware over three years regarding the benefit of AI tools and services.  The city started doing Chatbot POC's in 2022 and since then deployed 2 Chatbots (our external Denver website) and (internal city TS Support). Both of those solutions are SaaS. We are allowing Github for CoPilot for our city TS developers/contractors.  CoPilot for Microsoft Office 365 is under review considering the investment for licenses.   We also did a citywide inventory of systems that already have or will soon have AI features.  We also utilize the AWS Platform.

    Interconexión de aplicaciones facilita tareas cotidianas en entornos empresariales

    Nov 12, 2025
    Ha sido una grata sorpresa el como un tándem de productos puede hacer tan fácil la manera de comunicar aplicaciones entre si y tener un environment tan "rico" para usar en el día a día en una compañía.

    Overall I like how easy it is to create and share documents, communicate with others through Teams and store files safely in the cloud and everything works well together which saves time and makes daily tasks easier while there are a few minor issues like occasional bugs or the cost.
