Using the familiar Office apps you know and the power of the cloud, Office 365 lets you work virtually anywhere, anytime, across your devices. No matter how you access and use Office 365, you receive the same seamless experience and enterprise-grade security to protect your business and customers. There are no big upfront costs and no worrying about upgrades.

What comes with it?

• A robust Outlook business-class email with 50GB of space

• 1TB of space in the cloud for your data
• Yammer; a private social network that fosters team collaboration
