Microsoft® Office 365™
Cloud-based delivery of industry-leading Microsoft business solutions
Microsoft Office 365, available through a strategic partnership with Microsoft, is a cloud-based subscription service that makes the industry-leading Microsoft Office Suite, Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft Office Web Apps, and Microsoft Skype® for Business available as an Internet-based service. Cloud-based delivery reduces the demands on financial institutions’ IT departments for in-house hardware configurations; software installations; and ongoing support, maintenance, administration; and capacity planning. An intuitive control panel enables even non-technical associates to configure and customize Office 365. The pay-as-you-go model enables financial organizations of all asset sizes to provide their employees with world-class business tools, including reliable and familiar email services, for an established, per-seat monthly fee. Office 365 also benefits from Microsoft’s uptime service-level agreement which is backed by financial guarantees. Jack Henry & Associates serves as Microsoft’s Office 365 syndication partner in the financial services sector.
