6 Reasons To Use Microsoft365 with Virtec IT - 28 Apr 2026

Microsoft365 is pretty much the industry standard for web-based business software. Virtec IT are helping hundreds of businesses with Microsoft365 set-up, subscription and support making the use of standard tools and new tools are always looking for more businesses to help.

Here are our 6 key reasons to use Microsoft365:

1. Automatic Software Updates

A lot of us will remember when we used to grab a new CD-ROM from PC World and install it on our PCs, only for that to be replaced with a new version and have to upgrade.
Well that has all changed. All Microsoft365 subscribers have the latest versions of traditional desktop business software such as Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint
Security patches, feature updates and performance improvements are automatically applied which reduces the pain of keeping up-to-date with software upgrades. The upgrades happen and you don;t even know, so you are always protected and compatible. 

2. Access Anywhere, Anytime

It's all on the cloud which means your data is stored online. Your emails, documents, spreadsheets are available on any laptop, tablet or phone as lonh as you have an internet connection.
That means that you can kick off an email sitting on the train, leave it in youir drafts and finish it back at the office. Or the other way round!

3. Real-Time Document Updates

With Microsoft365 more than one person can edit a document at the same time. So that's documents, presentations and more all being updated by your team members eliminating version control issues. SharePoint provides a centralized hub for file sharing and OneDrive gives you 1TB of cloud storage.

4. Online Video with Teams

So you also get Microsoft Teams as part of the software which is the Mictrosoft tool for video conferencing. It's all part of the package setting up video meetings in advance by sending invitations out or just have a chat with a fellow team member at the click of a button.

5. Security and Compliance

Microsoft 365 offers enterprise-grade security, including: 
Microsoft Defender for Business: Protects against malware, phishing, and ransomware.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP): Prevents sensitive information (like credit card numbers) from leaving the organization.
Multi-factor Authentication (MFA): Secures user logins.
