14 DAY TRIAL // Microsoft has just announced that a total of eight government and education organizations have decided to adopt Microsoft’s new Office 365 cloud productivity costs, as they found that it could reduce costs and improve collaboration of their employees.
According to a statement published by Microsoft, more than 1 million US government workers will make the switch to Office 365 thanks to these new agreements.
The press release then goes on to mention the new organizations to adopt Microsoft’s productivity suite, which include the City of Kansas City, Mo., the City of Seattle, the University of Miami, California State University, Sacramento (Sacramento State), the University of Colorado Colorado Springs, the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, Dupage County, and King County, Wash.
“The rapidly increasing public sector adoption rates for Microsoft Office 365 are directly tied to current budget realities and the fact that our customers need to be more productive at a lower cost,” said Curt Kolcun, vice president of U.S. Public Sector at Microsoft.
