Has Your Organization Properly Setup M365?

Today, organizations are asking how to properly set up records management in M365 for modules such as Outlook, Teams, Sharepoint, PowerAutomate, and Compliance Center (Purview).   In a recent poll we conducted the type of planning stated as required to ensure successful deployment of M365 is Governance/Compliance.  Unfortunately, our surveys and studies find that less than 50% of organizations have fully developed their enterprise and department ECM requirements (indexing, search. workflow, integration) before M365 implementation and only 13% have  fully set up compliance center (Purview).

Are our strategic goals aligned with our mission? Who are our customers? In this assessment, an organization may find that it is operating on questionable assumptions, particularly regarding the wants and needs o...

Why is there a challenge in replacing Legacy systems?   The responsibility to oversee the replacement of a Legacy system, which has been developed, configured, and customized over many years is daunting, risky, and costly.  Also, who in your organization has the time and experience to properly analyze replacement options, develop requirements, assess vendors, and manage the deployment?
