Millenniumit ready to provide Microsoft's O365 solutions

MillenniumIT, a leading technology solutions provider, announced that ahead of Microsoft's launch of MS Office 365 in Sri Lanka, the first cloud-based, hosted version of its world-leading Microsoft Office applications suite that Millennium's Microsoft team are already competent and certified to provide cloud and O365 solutions.

According to Microsoft, ‘Office 365 provides the greatest set of productivity tools in the market today by bringing together online versions of our email and collaboration software with our familiar Office Professional Plus suite in the cloud.' The new cloudbased suite is designed to help deliver security, 24/7 reliability and user productivity.

Sanjaya Dayananda, Head of Microsoft Business at MillenniumIT said: ‘Once, cloud computing was a nebulous concept, as vaporous as its name implied. No more. Today, the world's biggest IT companies are taking the cloud very, very seriously. And few IT companies come bigger than Microsoft. The imminent launch of Office 365 will find MillenniumIT ready and able to help Sri Lankan business innovators migrate to more effective, more accessible cloud-based services – from day one onward.'

Pubudu Basnayake, Director - Small and Midmarket Solutions & Partners at Microsoft said:

‘Primarily a solutions company with ‘gold' certification in many Microsoft competencies, MillenniumIT being one of our top enterprise partners for Microsoft in Sri Lanka, has the vision, as well as the strength and depth, to carry these Cloud related solutions forward into the market. They are cloud-ready already, which means they have the competence and resources to offer licensing and professional services through people who are already trained in cloud technologies. We are very encouraged to see Partners skilling themselves up ahead of the launch which is a very positive sign for Sri Lanka Customers.'
