Microsoft 365 is taking productivity and collaboration to a new level! Here are some great features the entire Texas A&M community can take advantage of:
Microsoft Teams provides video conferencing, chat and application integration in one app
- Quickly schedule a meeting in Teams and use the scheduling assistant to easily find a time that works for everyone.
- Not familiar with someone in a Teams meeting? Click the “Organization” tab to see their title and the org chart for their area.
- Teams live events can be broadcast to audiences with up to 20,000 attendees. Give your event a professional look with a producer who chooses between video streams, graphics and multiple presenters.
OneDrive is a safe place to store all your workplace documents, and it is fully HIPAA and FERPA compliant. All Texas A&M accounts get 5TB (terabytes) of storage.
Microsoft Forms allow you to create quick polls, surveys and other forms to collect feedback, measure satisfaction and more. Want to know how your group feels about a new project? Just insert a quick survey into Teams or other Microsoft 365 products to get instant results.
Once your department email has been migrated to Microsoft 365 there are even more features you can use:
FindTime helps you work around the schedule of attendees by allowing them to vote on the most convenient time for a meeting.
Bookings lets campus members schedule appointments using a web-based scheduling page. Great for faculty, academic advisors, office managers and more!
