And could that actually be a good thing for your business?

Can we talk about artificial intelligence?

No, it’s not taking over the world (or is it?), but it is definitely changing how we handle our workload. Microsoft Copilot is one of the newest tools in the Microsoft 365 toolbox that is a great representation of how AI can transform your workflow. It's like having a hyper-efficient assistant who is already an expert on all the M365 apps you currently use.


Seamless Integration with Microsoft 365

Here’s what we mean when we say that Microsoft Copilot works effortlessly within the Microsoft 365 environment, enhancing the functionality of the applications you use daily.


  • Outlook: Copilot can prioritize your emails, draft responses, and schedule meetings based on your preferences. Have a ton of emails that look like a chore to get through? Copilot can summarize them concisely in seconds.
  • Word: Copilot makes writing easy by suggesting edits and updates and helping you format text to meet your requirements.
  • Excel: Data-driven decision making has never been easier. Copilot analyzes the data you enter, then generates reports and creates visualizations based on it.
  • Teams: Copilot helps you prepare for your scheduled meetings and keeps them on track by summarizing discussions and tracking action items: all you have to do is show up!
  • PowerPoint: Copilot designs visually appealing slides, incorporates relevant data, and refines your presentations in the click of a mouse.


The Benefits of Integration

As you can see, Copilot gives your M365 applications a boost and helps you use them more efficiently. Here are a few other tangible benefits of integrating Copilot into your daily work routine:


  • Enhanced Productivity: By automating routine tasks, Copilot boosts your overall productivity and helps you accomplish more in less time.
  • Consistency and Accuracy: Copilot ensures that tasks are performed consistently and accurately, reducing the risk of errors.

clicking a phishing email can make you feel sick

Just a quick refresher— what is email phishing? Phishing is a type of cyberattack where attackers try to trick you into giving away sensitive information—like passwords, credit card numbers, or even access to your business’s network— by pretending to be someone you trust . These emails often look like they’re from legitimate companies, like your bank, a well-known retailer, or even someone within your own organization. The goal? To get you to click on a malicious link or download an attachment that can compromise your system. Sometimes, the emails are obvious fakes, but other times, they can be extremely convincing, making it crucial to stay vigilant.
