Office 365 is the collaboration toolkit for businesses. We can choose between SharePoint Team Sites, Outlook Groups, Yammer Groups and Microsoft Teams. Choice can be good but doesn’t necessarily make our lives easier. Jasper Oosterveld, Microsoft MVP & Modern Workplace Consultant, is going to take you on a journey through the Office 365 collaboration landscape. After this session, you have a clear understanding of the different tools and how these connect with each other. Making a choice has become a little bit easier.
