Office 2010 momentum

Microsoft Office 2010 suite, including SharePoint 2010, Exchange 2010 and Lync 2010, has come a long way in 19 months. The numbers speak for themselves:

• One copy of Office 2010 sells every second across the globe.
• More than 30 million people use Office Web Apps, the online companions to Office.
• More than 100 million SharePoint licenses have been sold to more than 17,000 customers.

Office products change the way people do business, and customers see results. The Associated Press (AP) uses Word 2010 and SharePoint 2010 to create a system called ELVIS—Everyone Loves a Very Integrated System. ELVIS helps the AP improve productivity newsroom and collaboration.

Customers find results with Lync.

“To just say it bluntly – we’re saving three quarters of a million dollars a year with Lync,” says LA Fitness chief information officer George Bedar.

Also, the upcoming launch of Office 365 adds value for businesses that want to move to the cloud, where Microsoft Office, SharePoint Online, Exchange Online and Lync Online combine to yield additional IT solutions for customers.
