Transitioning to the Mobile Cloud: Microsoft Office 365 Opportunities and Challenges for Microsoft Ecosystem Partners

Harmon.ie just released a comprehensive Industry report on the Opportunities and Challenges that Microsoft Partners are facing with the migration to the cloud. I am happy to have been one of the reviews of this report together with other MVP’s and Influencers such as Benjamin Niaulin, Todd Baginski and Patrick Hosch!

Office 365 Opportunities and Challenges

Here are the top-level findings – more than 190 Microsoft partners, including SIs, IT outsourcing services and VARs, shared their take on opportunities and uncertainties they face in Microsoft’s move to the mobile cloud:

  • End-user adoption of the Microsoft cloud is increasing rapidly
  • Email leads the cloud charge, with social and collaboration tools trailing — cloud innovation lags behind cost-cutting for now
  • SharePoint is stuck on-premise, making hybrid expertise crucial
  • Security and migration concerns linger for both partners and their customers
  • Microsoft partners are embracing a best-of-breed, multi-cloud consulting model, indicating the need for new skills and revenue streams in the cloud
