You open your inbox and nestled among the usual emails from vendors, clients, and employees is an email you weren't expecting.

It is from a friend you haven't heard from in a long time, and he is writing to ask a favor. Suspicious, right?  But how do you know for sure it is a phishing attempt?

If you had a red phish in your email menu, you wouldn't have to wonder.

It can be overwhelming to have several windows pulled up to manage your email, company chats, and any cloud storage that isn’t compatible with your inbox. Microsoft Teams helps streamline the basic necessities of office work to help you overcome the tedium of multitasking.

If you’re an Office 365 subscriber, you’re in for some souped-up enhancements. Most involve artificial intelligence (AI) making sense of your data for you, so you spend less time and effort manually processing it. Here are a few of the latest enhancements that’ll give you more time for value-added tasks (and for coffee breaks and power naps, too).

Typing is easy on desktops and laptops, but when you’re on touch-enabled devices, keyboards are cumbersome to use, whether they are extra hardware or as space invaders on your screen.

Does your organization need to optimize its migration and provision of Office 365? Here are 6 strategies for managing and making the most out of your subscription to Microsoft’s premium cloud-based productivity suite.

Declutter your inbox

If you’re having trouble managing the overwhelming amount of emails in your inbox, then using Office 365’s “Clutter” feature can clear up some space.

Phishing scams disguise malicious links and emails as messages from trusted sources. The most recent scam to watch out for almost perfectly imitates a trusted invitation to collaborate through Microsoft SharePoint. It’s a three-step attack that’s easy to avoid if you know how it works.

If you’re one of the million-plus users taking advantage of Office 365’s premium productivity apps, you’ll soon notice some changes. Last June, Microsoft revealed that Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint, and Word will be getting a design revamp in the coming months.

Lately, Microsoft has given some love to Outlook -- not just the desktop app, but also the web and app versions. In fact, they just released a bunch of new and improved features. Let's take a look.

Outlook makes it fairly simple to invite people to a meeting, but now it will also keep tabs on who's coming.

Microsoft recently rolled out security updates to Office 365 for business and home users. These enhancements aim to increase safety when sending or receiving an email in Outlook, sharing links in OneDrive, and alerting users of possible malware infection.

Outlook is arguably the best tool that businesses use to manage their email, set up meetings, and coordinate projects. It's much more than a basic email program and includes features that help you organize your work, contacts, and business communications.

Yet again, Microsoft has released new AI-based features for Microsoft Excel, Word, Outlook, and more -- a continuing trend since 2016’s launch of the Microsoft AI and Research Group. If your business is subscribed to Office 365, this article will acquaint you with the newest features!
