Great resume of the main services in Office 365. The author doesn't detail the services but gives a very good overall experience of the main Office 365 services. This is exactly what you want in a "essentials" book! Great value for the money.

As a PM taking on a large o365 Migration I wanted to be able to understand enough about the product to allow me to understand what the technical engineers where talking about and the whole o365 thing pieced together and use it going forward as a reference book. I would recommend the book, it's easy to follow and well laid out. For the best results though you need to buy it in Kindle format and use the Amazon" Kindle Cloud Reader as there's loads of web links embedded in the book hooking into more great information.

A total waste of money. It does not provide any practically useful information.

Amazon's summary of the book: "Office 365 Essentials: Get up and running with the fundamentals of Office 365"This is a deceptive statement. Unless I am delusional, that statement seems to be describing a learners manual for the newbies to Office 365. I have used the Microsoft Office Suite for several years. When I received the latest version--Office 365--there were several changes from previous versions. I needed a printed manual to allow me to take advantage of the new features. Office 365 Essentials is not that manual. It appears to be directed towards IT professionals in charge of implementing Microsoft 365 to a large organization. The back cover of the book states this quite clearly, but the promotional material in the Amazon ad does not.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
