Does Your Organisation Have A Microsoft E3-35 365 License?

Here at Connected Networks, we see first-hand how fast the world is constantly changing. With AI, we are, like it or not, in a technological revolution which is using more and more energy with every passing day. It might not be an exaggeration to say that technological progress has entered a new era, where the pace of change means we are all adapting to new implementations on a continual basis. 

‍

Connected Networks: Helping the world revolutionise IT Networks and simultaneously ushering in the age of AI. 

Connected Networks sees both sides of this revolution: we provide high-end IT network connectivity across the globe and the AI revolution requires vast networks of high-bandwidth capable fibre and redundancy circuits linking data centres to cities and their swathes of users. We see firsthand what technologies the foundational companies of this revolution are being built on, from Bandwidth On Demand in real time, connecting data centres in minutes to serve specific locations, to Software Defined Networks that allow users to enjoy access from anywhere.  

On the other side of the coin, we also help our clients get the best out of the latest technology to drive their businesses forward. There is no doubt, flexibility in your network infrastructure is increasingly becoming a great competitive advantage. Adding to this flexibility with the latest AI capabilities, such as Microsoft’s Copilot, whole business processes can be redesigned to be more efficient, providing better service and ultimately improving the bottom line.  

No IT Manager or those responsible for IT infrastructure can afford to ignore these twin realities. We have the hardware of the IT network and the software to make it flexible and On Demand, and we have AI on top of that, augmenting your workforce’s skills.  

Companies using E3-E5 already have access to acquire Copilot license:  

At Connected Networks, we also work with companies using Microsoft’s E5 Office Suite. Many are unaware this also allows them to deploy Microsoft’s Copilot AI across their network. Available worldwide via public Cloud providers, this can lead to a number of benefits for organisations willing to onboard it.  

If you are unsure of how to proceed implementing Copilot, then let us know and we can arrange for a consultation with our experts.
