The debate between Yammer and Microsoft Teams is an age old question for Office 365 users; when do you use one over the other? The question is imminent if you haven't asked it already. I understand, they are both social tools. Let’s take a deeper look and try to answer the question from a non-technical perspective...

Having said that, all is not so simple or easy in Wonderland, is it?
A lot of exciting information is being shared this year at Microsoft Convergence in Atlanta, GA. This post summarizes the highlights of day 1, with a focus on the sessions that discussed working together better inside and outside of the organization - customer and employee engagement.

We have created a solution for SharePoint 2010 on-premise and SharePoint 2013 on-premise and Office 365 that provides a powerful yet simple mechanism for users to provide feedback.

Welcome back to to my series on the basics of SharePoint. If you've already read the first post, we covered what SharePoint is. Now we're ready to dive into how to create content in SharePoint. (Notice I said create content, not any form of structure.) We have to crawl before we can walk, right? Then we can move on for the super users on how to create structure, the things that hold the content.
When it comes to effectively taking notes, OneNote leaves Word in the dust. Don’t get me wrong, Microsoft Word is an excellent program and is very useful for specific tasks, but note-taking isn’t one of them. OneNote allows users to take notes the way that works best for them. In this blog entry, I will walk you through the installation process for your computer, step-by-step.
Members of our team recently had the pleasure of attending Microsoft Convergence, a premier conference for the Microsoft Dynamics community. What really struck me about the conference is that, for a gathering of people seeking more powerful ways to use technology, the common theme always lead back to people, and to building better relationships.
So the community responded, and someone published an add-in for Outlook 2013 that puts it back. This worked, but sad it was required. Many blogs reference this codeplex solution as a workaround to ease their pain and suffering. The other day I had rebooted after some Microsoft Office updates, and to my surprise I noticed it was there! I guess Microsoft does listen when enough people complain about it.

Starting with one of the most important factors in choosing a cloud service, security has been the big stumbling block for many companies considering a move to the cloud. Microsoft's online services have been designed with security in mind.

Microsoft has made a plethora of announcements about the upcoming release of Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 here at their Worldwide Partner Conference #WPC2013. This release will be available both Online and On-Premise and is expected to available in late 3rd Quarter or early 4th Quarter. This is a ground-breaking release bringing a new UI and functionality that is not available from any other major CRM system. It will have a profound impact on the productivity of your sales, customer service and marketing teams. Let’s dig in a little deeper…
This entry includes script that was created for a recent client who asked me to make several columns required in their SharePoint 2010 site collection of approximately 25-30 subsites. This would've taken two minutes if all columns were site columns, however, that wasn't the case. As a result, the columns were not inheriting and I was forced to turn to PowerShell for a solution.

At C5 Insight, we use ClickDimensions with Microsoft Dynamics CRM for our email marketing and marketing automation.

Much to our surprise, many of our Lead Source picklist values in Dynamics CRM got changed during the upgrade. As you can imagine, this made us a little nervous. After some investigating, we discovered the problem and learned a little-known limitation of managed solutions in Dynamics CRM.
I don’t believe Microsoft Expression ever had a huge following from web developers and graphics designers, but it served a purpose. Whether you liked it, hated or loved it, Microsoft has done what it does best again.
In case you haven’t visited their website lately, you will notice some major changes with Expression. Basically, they are rolling the Expression products into Visual Studio 2012 and beyond, forgoing the standalone tools.
