How do you collaborate with other System Administrators using Microsoft 365?

2 Communicate using Teams and Outlook

Teams and Outlook are communication platforms that enable you to chat, call, and email other system administrators. You can use Teams to create channels for different topics or groups, and have conversations, meetings, and webinars with other system administrators. You can also use Teams to integrate other Microsoft 365 apps, such as SharePoint, OneDrive, Planner, and Power Automate, and access them from within Teams. You can use Outlook to send and receive emails, manage your calendar, and schedule meetings with other system administrators. You can also use Outlook to create groups, which are shared spaces for email, calendar, files, and conversations.

3 Coordinate tasks using Planner and To Do

Planner and To Do are task management apps that help you organize and track your work with other system administrators. You can use Planner to create plans for different projects or goals, and assign tasks to other system administrators or yourself. You can also use Planner to set due dates, priorities, labels, and checklists for each task, and monitor the progress and status of the plan. You can use To Do to create lists of tasks for yourself or others, and sync them across your devices. You can also use To Do to integrate with Outlook and Planner, and view your tasks from different sources in one place.

4 Secure your collaboration using Azure Active Directory and Microsoft 365 Security Center

Azure Active Directory and Microsoft 365 Security Center are security solutions that help you protect your collaboration with other system administrators. You can use Azure Active Directory to manage the identities and access of other system administrators, and enforce policies and rules for authentication, authorization, and conditional access. You can also use Azure Active Directory to enable multi-factor authentication, single sign-on, and identity protection for your system administrators. You can use Microsoft 365 Security Center to monitor and respond to security threats and incidents, and configure security settings and policies for your Microsoft 365 environment. You can also use Microsoft 365 Security Center to access reports and insights on your security posture and performance.
