You’d be surprised by how much useful software is hidden in your subscription. In this video, we look at a productivity tool that lets you automate tasks across different apps.
Collaborating in real time with Word We all love Word, and have used it for many, many years. But did you know the Word of today can do so many more things, compared to the Word of yesterday. Such as collaborating on a document in real time. Here’s how…

MyAnalytics will help you be more efficient Wouldn’t it be great if you had a dashboard with information about your team’s work patterns? So you could help them collaborate more.
