Description

Microsoft Online Services can give you the flexibility to decide which services to have hosted and which to keep on-premise, allowing you to quickly and easily extend new capabilities to your organization without straining your IT resources. There is no additional hardware to provision; no additional server software to buy, install, or configure; and no expensive maintenance required. With simple, straightforward services that are easily deployed and scaled, you can find the solution that works best for you, your budget, and your company’s changing needs.

Each Microsoft data center, located strategically throughout the world, houses a highly reliable complex of equipment that provides seamless connectivity to the Microsoft Online suite of services. This global network of geo-redundant data centers provides around the clock access to your business-critical collaboration services, and helps keep your data safe.
 
With Microsoft Online Services, your IT staff retains control over the services offered to your end users. Microsoft Online Services work seamlessly with Microsoft Active Directory®, so you can continue to manage user policies centrally and control which services are available via your existing users. A single administrative panel—with consoles for provisioning, usage, monitoring, and support—enables simple and centralized management. And your users can enjoy the convenience of a single sign-on to access all their hosted services.
