Office 365

Mimecast recently polled attendees of one of its webinars and learned nearly two-thirds of them either already moved to Office 365, had begun the migration process, or were considering it.

"Despite Office 365’s inherent benefits and its increased adoption, companies continue to grapple with how to migrate from on-premises solutions without leaving critical email services and data in the hands of a single vendor," Bauer told IT Best of Breed.

By offering additional cloud services that extend and enhance the value of Office 365, the channel can for the first time guarantee an organization's uptime, enhance data resilience and maximize threat protection.

"In this way, the channel supports widespread cloud adoption and is able to better compete by addressing critical market needs," he said.
