Como algunos de ustedes saben ahora estoy involucrado con Office 365; entre otros temas; hace unos días unos amigos de Argentina me preguntaron cómo funciona Office365 en dispositivos móviles. Lo cual es una pregunta muy buena ya que existen varios mal entendidos sobre el tema. Aquí les dejo el detalle:

Para hablar de Office 365 en dispositivos móviles tenemos que hablar de Apps y de sistemas operativos como Android, iOS, Windows Phone y por supuesto Windows RT. Pero antes de entrar en ese detalle, es súper importante aclarar que Office 365 tiene varios servicios de valor agregado que pueden ser explotados desde diversos medios, formas y dispositivos; entre los servicios están el correo electrónico con Exchange Online, Servicios de colaboración con SharePoint Online, comunicaciones con Lync, Office Online, Office para desktop entre muchas más.

Una de los valores agregados más importantes es la posibilidad de usar y obtener todo el poder de Office 365 desde prácticamente cualquier lugar y momento, ya sea desde una PC, MAC, tableta o teléfono inteligente. Empezaremos por hablar de Office 2013 RT, Office Mobile y Lync.

Office 2013 RT

Office 2013 RT viene incluido de forma gratuita en todas las tabletas que tienen Windows RT 8.1, incluye Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote y Outlook.

Office Mobile

Office Mobile te permite ver y editar documentos de Word, Excel y PowerPoint desde cualquier lugar; el contenido y el formato permanecerá intacto en tu dispositivo móvil y cuando lo veas desde una PC o una MAC estará como tú lo dejaste.

Con Office Mobile, pues ver y editar documentos de tengas en: e-mail, OneDrive, OneDrive for Business, SharePoint y en tu teléfono.

Lync 2013

Lync 2013 extiende el poder de Lync al dispositivo móvil, incluye voz y video en conexiones wifi, mensajería instantánea, conferencia y capacidad de llamadas desde una interfaz sencilla de usar.

Reglas para poder usar Office Mobile

Ahora que ya saben un poco de Lync y de Office Mobile, toca el turno de explicarles las reglas del juego con Office Mobile:

1. Solo se puede hacer uso de Office Mobile en iOS y Android si tienen una cuenta usuario de Office 365.
2. En el caso de Windows Phone, y Windows RT no es necesario tener cuenta de Office 365 para usar Office Mobile y Office 2013 RT
3. Office Mobile solo está disponible para teléfonos inteligentes con Android, iOS y Windows Phone
4. Las tabletas tienen que usar Office Online (Office Online es la versión web de office)
5. Solo se puede hacer uso de hasta 5 dispositivos móviles a la vez.

Las Apps

Ya que explicamos un poco del uso y de las reglas, es hora de compartirles las apps con su respectivo link para descargarla dependiendo del dispositivo móvil que tengan

Aplicaciones para Windows Phone

Aplicaciones para iPhone y iPad

Aplicaciones para Android

Espero que les sea de utilidad.

En lo personal me siento afortunado de haber compartido trinchera con muchos de ustedes pero sobre todo de aprender de todos.

Para mí, es tiempo de emprender un nuevo reto profesional  dentro de Microsoft y dejar de ser MVP Lead, no sin antes agradecer a todos y cada uno de ustedes por compartir esa pasión por la tecnología que de verdad resulta ser un verdadero catalizador de cosas positivas, motivadoras y de lecciones de vida. De ninguna forma es un adiós ni nada parecido, ya aun estaré tratando de ayudar, pero desde una trinchera diferente.

Mi ultimo dia formal como Community Program Manager sera el 26 de Octubre.

Les dejo estos recursos:

• Sitio de MVPs
• Nominar a un Candidato a MVP
• Tips para ser MVP
• Professional Reputation

What It Takes to be Number One

"Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while; you don't do things right once in a while; you do them right all of the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.

There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game, and that's first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay, and I don't ever want to finish second again. There is a second place bowl game, but it is a game for losers played by losers. It is and always has been an American zeal to be first in anything we do, and to win, and to win, and to win.

Every time a football player goes to ply his trade he's got to play from the ground up - from the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of him has to play. Some guys play with their heads. That's O.K. You've got to be smart to be number one in any business. But more importantly, you've got to play with your heart, with every fiber of your body. If you're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second.

Running a football team is no different than running any other kind of organization - an army, a political party or a business. The principles are the same. The object is to win - to beat the other guy. Maybe that sounds hard or cruel. I don't think it is.

It is a reality of life that men are competitive and the most competitive games draw the most competitive men. That's why they are there - to compete. The object is to win fairly, squarely, by the rules - but to win.

And in truth, I've never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep down in his heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline. There is something in good men that really yearns for discipline and the harsh reality of head to head combat.

I don't say these things because I believe in the ‘brute' nature of men or that men must be brutalized to be combative. I believe in God, and I believe in human decency. But I firmly believe that any man's finest hour -- his greatest fulfillment to all he holds dear -- is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious."

- Coach Vincent T. Lombardi

From <https://www.vincelombardi.com/number-one.html>

Windows Server 2012 Essentials – Crear carpetas compartidas

Hola a todos, después de revisar las primeras opciones de administración en Windows Server 2012 Essentials veremos como es el proceso para la creación de una carpeta compartida, para muchos puede ser esto algo muy básico, pero hay que revisar que cambios se ven reflejados en cuanto ediciones Standard o Datacenter.

En el anterior articulo sobre la creación de usuarios en nuestro dominio, el cual se instala y configura automáticamente a la hora de la instalación del S.O, mirábamos que en el Dashboard que proporciona Essentials se detallan ciertos items que recomienda ir cumpliendo, la creación de carpetas es el tercero.

Para la llevar a cabo este item solo debemos lanzar el asistente para esta creación de folders.

Gracias.

Windows Server 2012 Essentials – Característica de Backup

Hola a todos, continuando con la serie enfocada a Windows Server 2012 Essentials en esta ocasión veremos que poseemos de una característica de Backup de la misma manera que en una edición completa, esta hace parte del cuarto items que nos recomienda el Dashboard que configuremos.

Es muy importante en toda organización que se asegure la información y como Windows server 2012 Essentials es enfocado a empresas que no poseen soluciones de Backups mas completas como lo puede ser por ejemplo un System Center Data Protection Manager, se pone a disposición esta característica incluida en el servidor y sin adquirir otra licencia de uso.

Con este podemos realizar un plan de recuperación ante desastres de manera básica, realizar copias de archivos a discos duros, además de los System State del nuestro S.O y así poder salvar nuestro entorno de dominio.

Windows Server 2012: Equipos de NIC (NIC Teaming)

“NIC Teaming” es el nombre de una nueva funcionalidad incluida con Windows Server 2012; conocida además como LBFO (Load Balancing and Failover)

Permite combinar múltiples placas de red para formar un “equipo” (team) que servirá para dos propósitos:

• Asegurar disponibilidad que proveerá disponibilidad (tolerancia a fallas) en caso de problemas con un componente de red
• Permitir agregación de ancho de banda entre varios adaptadores de red

Anteriormente, esto implicaba requerir soporte de parte del fabricante de los adaptadores, que además de ser propietario, requería que los mismos sean del mismo modelo.

A partir de Windows Server 2012 es una solución incluida con el sistema que incluso no requiere que los adaptadores a combinar sean del mismo modelo o fabricante

Gracias.
