With additional products catered specifically for business environments, such as Skype for Business and SharePoint, Office 365 has become a mainstay for most organizations.

The shift towards a software-driven world has rapidly gained popularity in the technology industry, and it might just be the answer that companies are looking for!

Cloud based computing and solutions seem to be all the news lately – it’s what everyone is talking about! There is a common perception that if it’s in the Cloud it must be better…maybe, and maybe not.

Not only is it just a different deliver model, but it changes the way printing software is used, licensed, and improves end user experience and workflow in ways traditional printing cannot.
