Microsoft 365 is a suite of programs from Microsoft that helps businesses grow, work smarter and more productively, and most importantly boost profitability. This includes e-mail, team video calling/chat, online file sharing, and mobile device management – available anywhere on any device.

Originally called Office 365, Microsoft 365 is ‘cloud-based’, meaning there’s no need for on-site servers – with data securely held in Microsoft’s datacentres. For small and medium sized businesses, there’s three main plans to choose from:

> Microsoft 365 Business Basic – Includes email, Teams, OneDrive file storage & sharing, and basic web & mobile versions of Office apps (Word/Excel/PowerPoint etc). This gives your business freedom to work from anywhere on any device.

> Microsoft 365 Business Standard – Includes everything from the Business Basic plan – alongside the full versions of Word/Excel/PowerPoint/Outlook, rather than just the basic web-versions included in the Business Basic plan.

> Microsoft 365 Business Premium – Everything from the Business Basic + Standard plans, alongside advanced security and data/access control – giving you more control over company information.

Plans start from £4.50 a month – and priced on a ‘per-user’ basis – simply meaning that each user who accesses 365 needs an account.
