Today, Telstra has announced price cuts of up to 30 percent on the best business productivity applications avaialble – Microsoft® Office 365 from T-Suite®.

Since Telstra launched Microsoft Online Services in 2009 – we’ve had an enthusiastic response from both small and large business eager to move to cloud-based email, collaboration and messaging.

Whether they’re going through a rapid period of growth, trying to manage their costs more efficiently, or wanting to take their team to the next level, Aussie businesses have found big benefits in moving to Office 365.  The value comes from being able to share contacts and view team calendars across the organisation, sharing documents and being able to access everything on almost any device connected to the internet.

It’s all on hand without having to buy or maintain expensive servers or having to constantly buy and upgrade software to get access to latest versions.  Best of all, Office 365 integrates smoothly with Microsoft Office applications like Word and Outlook, meaning you can move to the cloud without changing the way you work.

So, let’s cut to the chase … how much does it cost?

Microsoft Exchange Online – a 25GB hosted mailbox with built-in SPAM and anti-virus protection – now starts at only $7.10 per user per month (incl GST). That’s a 20% saving from the old price of $8.90.

For only 80c more per month, our small business customers can choose the Office 365 for professionals and small businesses suite. This includes not just the Exchange Online 25GB hosted mailbox, but also Microsoft SharePoint® Online (for creating team sites for sharing documents, team announcements and more) and Microsoft Lync™ Online (for instant messaging and desktop sharing). It also provides you with a simple small business website. All for the same low price of $7.90 per user per month.

Larger business and enterprise customers can choose the enhanced capabilities of the Office 365 for enterprise suite – now from only $12.70 per user per month, a 19% saving. Even more for those eligible to claim back GST.

What’s the catch? Well, there isn’t one … all of Telstra’s existing Office 365 customers will automatically receive the new, revised price on their next bill. And new customers can sign up to the new pricing today, without having to commit to a lengthy contract, because Office 365 from Telstra is sold month-to-month.

And remember, as with all of our T-Suite applications, Office 365 from T-Suite gives you:

• 24 x 7 online and phone support from Telstra’s Australian-based cloud support team – on every Office 365 product we sell.
• Convenience of a single bill.
