Canviz – Helping Clients Eliminate the Worry Associated With Conceiving, Building, and Deploying Complex Business Technology Solutions

Microsoft is not only a household name, but it is firmly established in almost every industry across the world. It dominates the development, manufacture, licensing, support, and sale of software, electronics, personal computers, and related services. Microsoft has also formed many vendor partnerships with other companies to create a robust Microsoft Partner Network. When you hire a Managed Services Provider, ensure that it is also a Microsoft Partner so you receive expert support. A Microsoft Partner will not only assist you to implement the latest hardware and software, but will also offer mobile solutions, cloud capabilities, and Microsoft’s extensive suite of online apps and services. With the right Managed Services Provider, you will also access comprehensive customer support in IT staffing, cybersecurity, and tech strategy.

Leveraging Best Microsoft-Based Software Solutions

Office 365 SharePoint Version Checker: To properly support your Office 365 SharePoint tenancy, knowing exactly when your tenancy is updated by Microsoft is a critical operational detail to understand. Knowing when versions change helps you diagnose and troubleshoot any potential issues that occur in your tenancy and/or with custom code and systems that integrate with your tenancy. It also allows you to be proactive and run regression tests on your custom code and systems that integrate with your tenancy to ensure they still work after your tenancy version have been updated. The Add-in checks the version of your Office 365 SharePoint tenancy each time the page where the Add-in runs is requested/loaded. You can either make it a habit to browse to the page each day to see if the version has changed or you can use a script (recommended) to make automated requests to the web page the Add-in is installed on. The out-of-the-box alerting capabilities that come with SharePoint lists make it very easy to set up and configure alerts to immediately notify you every time Microsoft rolls out a new version to your Office 365 SharePoint tenancy.
