Is Choosing, Migrating, Using, and Maintaining Microsoft Office 365 or Google Apps Getting Confusing for You?

The two giants in office productivity software today are Google and Microsoft.

Sure, there are other office productivity suites out there, but none come with the rich feature sets and integrations available in these two outstanding products. But with this high level of capability comes an equally high level of complexity. This is where the expertise of an IT consultant can make the difference between a reasonably priced, effective solution and a costly, cumbersome office productivity suite.
