Microsoft to beef up its entry-level Office 365 offering
microsoft project 2010
Microsoft is adding a few new capabilities — including Exchange ActiveSync support — to help its lowest-end Office 365 providing.

In a post to his “The http://www.project2010store.com/ Exhibit Board” blog, http://www.project2010store.com/ Senior Partner Technological know-how Advisor Jesper Osgaard described most of the tweaks the Softies are making to your Office 365 K-plan (kiosk member of staff plan):

Exchange Online Kiosk Plan: http://www.project2010store.com/ is adding Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) help for mobile devices to the present Exchange Online Kiosk plan. Currently, users with that will plan only have POP mail capabilities. “With the following change, we will enable all smartphones that support EAS, including iPhone, Andriod mobile phones, Nokia phones (Symbian), and Windows phones, ” Osgaard blogged.

E-mail storage space: Microsoft is doubling e-mail storage space for K plan customers from 500 MB to at least one GB.

Exchange Online Archiving: Microsoft will be enabling “Exchange Online Archiving (EOA) which include legal hold and indefinite storage, to be offered as an add-on to any Change Online plan, including Kiosk and Exchange Plan 1, ” your dog said.

I asked Osgaard when these changes is effective and he said that date holds TBD (to get determined). Microsoft is rolling out updates across Office 365 for a quarterly basis, with the latest batch of updates hitting at the end of 2011. Microsoft is believed to have sold in excess of 5 million Office 365 seat designs, 90 percent of that create gone to small businesses.

Office 365 is that Microsoft-hosted bundle of Exchange Online, SharePoint Online together with Lync Online that Ms launched in late July 2010. It is regarded as being Microsoft’s alternative to Yahoo Apps. The Kiosk plan for Office 365 currently will start at $2 per user every month. I have a question in to the Office 365 team in the timing and whether you will have any pricing changes on account of these new features.

Up-date: Microsoft officials are not commenting on in the event the new features will be fired up. However, one Office 365 MVP, Loryan Strant, said that this will happen globally “around Mar 2012. ” Microsoft officials did say that the new features will be part of both Exchange Online Nited kingdom and Office 365 Nited kingdom, with prices remaining with $2 per user every month, and $4 per user each and every month, respectively.
