We're big fans of Microsoft's Office 365. So why would you choose Office 365 over the less expensive hosted Exchange? Two words - Power Automate. Think of Power Automate as inbox rules, but so much more. For example, we have automated the processing and sorting of our incoming invoices. For more details, feel free to ask us how! https://www.efficienttech.co.nz/

Easily create automated workflows with Microsoft Power Automate, previously Microsoft Flow, to improve productivity with business process automation

'Morning folks, it's Geoff here with another hot tip for y'all. Recently I've been getting a number of people calling me in a panic saying all their Outlook folders have vanished and they can't get to their emails. What has actually happened is that the parent folder has collapsed the view of their folders. For example, you can see in our pictures here that the Inox has a > next to it - that means that there are folders hidden under the Inbox. Simply click on the > (see second picture) and the folder list will expand and hey presto, your folders are there! Enjoy :)

Hey guys!
Liam from Efficient Tech here with some information on modern backups.
A lot of businesses are still living in the dark ages of USB backups, some have moved to cloud backups, but have you heard of Datto?
They do SaaS Protection if you use cloud-based storage solutions, office365 backups if you use exchange online, and onsite server backups.
They create snap shots of your drives and store these on their servers. if you have a major disaster, office is on fire or someone dropped a giant piano on your server, the down time is minimal.
With this new technology Datto can create a virtual instance of your server and have you back up and running in mere minutes while you are restoring the backup to a physical server on your site.

Having a great platform to get your business started and running is important to keeping things running efficiently. This is why we use and recommend the Microsoft 365 platform. It's not just email, storage, spreadsheets and documents - it has a lot of powerful automation features too. When you're just starting out, having your system automatically do some things that you might spend a few minutes a day lets you concentrate better on the things that bring in the money. If you've ever wondered "I wish it did.... " it just might do. Let us know if we can help you with that.

One effective way to help combat online scammers is to waste their time so they can't scam others. Why not do it, and not waste your time too by using technology to do the drudgery of interacting with these people for you?

Because responding manually is still a waste of your time.,Software ,scam,Scammer,AI,artificial intelligence,email,bot

Due to an incompatibility in the new release of iOS, users of the built-in Apple Mail app in iOS 11 may be unable to sync their Office 365 mailbox or login to their accounts. iOS 9 or 10 users are not affected.
Microsoft and Apple are working to resolve this issue and will post more information to the article, below, when it becomes available.
In the meantime, we recommend you download the free Outlook for iOS client, available in the App Store. Alternatively, you can avoid updating to iOS 11 until the issue has been fixed.
----
Quote from a Microsoft article - in summary, if you are an Office 365 user and use an iPhone or iPad to read email using the built-in Mail app, either switch to Outlook (!) or hold off upgrading to iOS 11 until they get their stuff sorted.
