Microsoft Collaboration Platforms
Microsoft's collaboration platforms are tightly integrated with Microsoft's popular Office and Microsoft 365 suites, providing a rich ecosystem of applications that deliver a consistent user experience for sharing information across multiple sites and on a wide variety of endpoint devices. Progent has provided remote consulting services for SharePoint and Exchange since their initial releases and can help remote and hybrid workers set up and use these flagship collaboration platforms to maximize productivity.
Microsoft Teams Microsoft Teams works on top of Microsoft 365 and integrates with third-party cloud services to deliver real-time collaboration and communication. Designed as a replacement for Skype for Business Online, Microsoft Teams can support chat, audio/video meetings with screen sharing, calling, cloud voicemail, group email, plus file and app sharing. Teams is tightly integrated with Microsoft 365 and depends on Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business, and Azure Entra (formerly branded Azure Active Directory) for delivering its full feature set.

SharePoint uses web sites to enable collaboration and information delivery by providing policy-driven access to content, workflow, and tools for searching through company-wide business data. SharePoint allows you to create secure web portals that allow remote and hybrid workers to view and update consolidated business intelligence via Wikis, Blogs, social sites, and Web Parts.
