How to Drive Profits with Microsoft Teams

Deliver enterprise-grade communication features

As the workforce becomes increasingly mobile, the workplace has shifted too. Today, we rely on productivity and collaboration tools not just inside the office, but also outside of it—whether that’s in the field, the back of a cab, or at the kitchen table.

With 62% of the global workforce now working from home at any frequency,1 demand for collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams is high and will only continue to grow. As a reseller, you have a lucrative opportunity to help customers create a modern workplace that supports this shift in how we work.

The numbers don’t lie: when you partner with SYNNEX to offer teamwork solutions, you can drive profitability up to $16.75 per user per month.2

Wondering where to start? Take a look at how you can help customers build an intelligent, transformative workplace with Microsoft Teams, available with Microsoft 365 or Office 365.

A new approach to chat

Communication is essential for all teams, but especially for geographically diverse ones. With Microsoft Teams, colleagues can stay connected with HD video, content sharing, digital whiteboard, notes, voice, and text chat—on any device. But Teams is a lot more than just a chat platform: it’s also a comprehensive teamwork hub. Integrated with Office 365, files sync with OneDrive for Business cloud storage and SharePoint environments, so employees always have access to the latest file versions, wherever they are.

Seamless online file sharing

With SharePoint, your customers get an easy, efficient way to manage files. Built with state-of-the-art coauthoring capabilities, people can share and edit files like Word documents and Excel spreadsheets in real time, from anywhere, on any device. Plus, search functions mean that workers are never more than a click away from what they need, making it easy to find information and seamlessly collaborate across the organization.

Better meetings with Teams-enabled hardware

Make meetings easy with Teams capabilities like a scheduling assistant, screen sharing, and collaborative note taking. Users can schedule and host online meetings for up to 250 participants—even across different organizations. And with dial-in fallback support, people can always attend meetings even in the event of network issues. The best part? Workers can connect from a comprehensive range of Teams-enabled devices, from personal options like tablets to shared devices like conference room equipment, portable speakerphones, and interactive whiteboards.

More value from specialized apps

Drive more profits and help your customers get even more out of Microsoft Teams by introducing them to apps specialized to their industries. Show healthcare customers how they can streamline processes and improve patient care with care coordination solutions, help retail customers simplify their supply chain management, or empower oil and gas organizations to get more out of their daily monitoring and analysis. Plus, users can even build their own solution using AI-driven PowerApps. Whatever their industry, vertical-specific apps can make it all manageable.
