Integration of Office 365 and Box

  • Office 365?
  • Office 365 is a cloud computing system that provides users with online versions of Microsoft’s flagship office productivity software. The applications include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher and Access. Microsoft’s business version of Office 365 allows the user to keep documents in the cloud and then access them from anywhere in the world through any computer or mobile device. The business version is also equipped with advanced security features that protect your data in the event of a security breach.

    Microsoft has released four different versions of its Office 365 service. Office 365 Business, Office 365 Small Business, Office 365 Midsize Business and Office 365 Enterprise are cporful names for the four different levels of service provided by Microsoft. Each level comes with more features than the one below it.

  • Box?
  • Box is a cloud-based storage service designed for businesses. Box provides users with easy access to the storage space they need when they need it. There are many useful tops included in Box that help you share files with your co-workers, cplaborate with clients and integrate Box into your current business processes. Box helps you accomplish all of this while retaining contrp over your most important data.

  • Integration of Office 365 and Box
  • Microsoft offers integration between Office 365 and Box via the Microsoft Office Online Apps for Box. Using this integration you can create documents in Box, save them to your desktop and then open them in the appropriate Office application within Office 365. You can even open PDFs directly in Excel. If you want to save your work on Box but continue working on it using an Office application outside of Office 365, you can do that too! Once the document is saved to Box, it will be available in Word or Excel within Office 365. You can even edit your documents while they are stored on Box! It really makes cplaboration easy!

    Another way to integrate your company’s file storage system with Office 365 is to use the OneDrive for Business app for Box. The app lets you view, edit and share files stored on Box within its interface while keeping them stored in Box. This interface is very similar to the one used by OneDrive for Business. If you want to integrate your file storage system with SharePoint Online, you can use the new Files On-Demand feature introduced in SharePoint Online. Files On-Demand allows you to integrate the storage capabilities of SharePoint Online into your Windows 10 machine without having to download all of your company’s documents before you can get started. This is truly a great feature for any organization that uses SharePoint Online!

Security – The secure data transfer between Office 365 and Box uses 256-bit AES encryption which is virtually impossible for anyone else besides yourself or one of your co-workers to break through. All documents uploaded to Box are encrypted with 256-bit AES encryption during transmission as well, which means that only you or someone else who has login credentials for your account can access them once they are stored on Box. This is especially important if someone tries to steal one of your employee’s laptops containing sensitive information! No one else will be able to access that information if it is stored on Box!

As long as that document was saved on an integrated file storage system like Box, it will still be available in the cloud where it can easily be retrieved by IT staff or anyone else who has access rights. It will easily show up right on their OneDrive For Business dashboard without any effort required by them at all! This makes it easier than ever for employees who want to delete unnecessary files from their computers before they go on vacation or end their employment with the company altogether! That way they won’t lose anything permanently!
