The Cloud is here and it is real. According to a study recently completed by Everything Channel’s IPED Research division, by 2012, at least 50% of all customers will have some form of a cloud solution underway. Many partners continue to ask these questions:

How do I get started with the cloud? What decisions do I need to make now with my existing practice? How will this impact my existing services portfolio? What tools and resources are available?

The workshop will cover real-time decision where you can expect to leave with an action plan on critical changes required in your business to take advantage of the booming Cloud market and specifically Microsoft Online Services. Plan to leave the session with valuable insights on:
