Microsoft have some great offers on discounted tech for charities. Find out whether your organisation is eligible
With the move to working from home, Microsoft Teams has now reached this level of ubiquity. Even before the pandemic, we highlighted how cloud-based solutions allowed for increased communication and collaboration. Now, Teams has become a fixture of many charitiesÂ’ daily operations – allowing staff to keep in touch and work together via instant messaging chat, video conferencing capabilities and quick-and-easy file sharing.
These products have allowed many charities to make a smooth transition to a remote working model, and continue to offer their vital services amidst a climate of challenges and disruptions.
Most of us probably take access to these solutions as a given. But charity digital leaders will need to make decisions when it comes to sourcing software and licenses for employees. There are a number of Microsoft products available at a discounted rate through the Charity Digital Product Platform and Exchange Programme. These can allow organisations (particularly smaller charities with limited budgets) to gain access to important software at affordable rates.
