Our business first service offerings

Why you should adopt a Modern Workplace solution?

  • Simplified communication channels

    Are your staff connecting through numerous channels, applications, or platforms? It’s easy for messages to go unread, causing delays and slowing productivity.

    A Modern Workplace solution simplifies your communication channels, often into a single working cloud environment, giving you greater control and oversight.

  • Integrated applications and management systems

    Having multiple stand-alone, third-party systems means dealing with many different nuances with each vendor so they function cohesively. Perhaps you’re frequently faced with issues such as updating one software and then finding it incompatible with another.

    Microsoft’s Modern Workplace solutions solve this by providing one system where software updates are thoroughly checked for compatibility across all other products. This eases the burden on your in-house IT team, allowing them to attend to other important tasks.

  • Greater visibility & monitoring

    Departments that operate separately have restricted visibility into what others are doing. This also means data is scattered across various locations, making access and monitoring for intrusions difficult.

    Having everything conducted within a single collaboration platform keeps your team in close contact. Less time hopping between multiple platforms equals more time doing what matters.

  • Scalable technology

    Integrating a cloud environment into your IT network makes it easier to scale up resources without acquiring new hardware and the associated labour costs.

    Modern Workplace solutions allow you to build new networks effortlessly, integrate multiple applications, and incorporate innovative AI/Machine Learning systems to help automate business tasks.

    It also provides employees with a smoother interface to work, particularly when accessing the company’s network with their own devices.

  • Implement tougher security measures

    Using multiple third-party software and applications and your hardware servers increases the risk of security breaches when transmitting and storing data.

    Microsoft’s Modern Workplace solutions heavily focus on building strong, consistent cybersecurity practices across its services.

    For example, end-to-end encryption keeps messages secure, and admins can authorise access for certain employees. Modernising your workplace with cloud solutions will help you keep an auditable record of events, so you remain compliant with data regulations.

  • Automate time-consuming tasks

    One of the best reasons to adopt a Modern Workplace solution is to take advantage of Microsoft 365’s Power Platform.

    This suite lets you create, build, examine and automate business tasks. It streamlines workflows and speeds up repetitive and time-consuming business processes, allowing staff to pursue other essential manual tasks.

How does the Modern Workplace benefit team collaboration?

What’s included in the Microsoft Modern Workplace?

Microsoft’s Modern Workplace package is bundled with additional Enterprise Mobility & Security features to allow employees to do their job efficiently when working remotely.

  • Microsoft Teams is your key to staying connected with your colleagues, no matter where or what device you’re on.

    Think of it as a virtual teamwork hub; it’s got all the features for meetings and calls that Skype used to offer but with additional meeting room facilities, phone services, and document-handling abilities.

    Microsoft Teams can also serve as your office phone system. Moving entirely onto a digital platform might be daunting due to security issues or the need to integrate specific tech tools. But rest assured, Microsoft Teams can also work in tandem with your existing telephone network.

  • With more people working from home, ensuring they have secure remote work tools is critical. Microsoft has you covered when it comes to identity and access management, office safety measures, mobile device control and setup.

    Azure Active Directory or multi-factor authentication (MFA) are critical tools for ensuring only authorised personnel get onto your network, especially if your team operates remotely.

    Once everything’s up and running, you can rely on Modern Workplace Partners for ongoing support, such as creating roles and keeping a keen eye on activities within the system. They can help devise policies and assign role-based access control to specific apps and services.

    With Microsoft by your side, managing identity and preventing unauthorised access becomes less daunting. And with Zenzero’s IT experts, we’ll help you empower everyone in your company while securing your crucial assets.

When teams come together to solve a problem, real innovation occurs.

Facilitating this type of collaboration can be challenging, especially if you’ve got workers spread across different locations or working various shifts.

Thanks to applications like Microsoft Teams (including its education version), Office 365 and SharePoint, which are part of the Microsoft Modern Workplace suite, employees can team up regardless of where they are or what time it is.

Windows 10 Virtual Desktop is even more convenient as users can access their workspace from any device.

Microsoft Teams keeps evolving by adding new features and continuously improving user experience.

This results in higher productivity levels, boosts morale among staff members, and allows people from different departments to collaborate effectively.

The experience itself is no longer bound to one device, it’s becoming multi-sense and multi-device.

Satya Nadella
CEO, Microsoft

Over the last few years, there has been lots of talk about work being “something you do” and not just “somewhere you go” and whilst this is true for some organizations it isn’t a universal truth. At Zenzero we have customers across all sectors including those that need staff to be in specific places at specific times as well as organisations that are more outcome and collaborative focussed.

We all know the recent COVID-19 restrictions on movement resulted in most organisations allowing staff to work from home. Now, for many organisations, remote working is something that is being actively embraced rather than actively avoided!

Whatever your organisation needs Zenzero can help you deploy a modern workplace solution that allows your staff to collaborate and work as a team effectively and efficiently. Our modern workplace solutions bring additional benefits such as simplified device management and control of how your staff utilise your company resources.

"
This is just about as good as IT support could ever be!

I have run a number of reasonably large companies in the past 25 years, the biggest moan of staff each time has been that the IT support has been poor, and I've never really been able to fix it.

For the first time, I've come into a CEO role and no one has mentioned IT. Not once, not at all, it just isn't an issue within Helping Hands.”
