Keeping up with Microsoft 365 landscape
• For significant updates, follow the Microsoft
365 Roadmap
• As an update gets closer to rolling out,
it is communicated through your
Microsoft 365 Message centre.
• A good practice is to:
Leave the majority of users in Standard
release
IT Pros and power users in Targeted
release to evaluate new features and
prepare teams to support business users
and executives.
