Yammer mit Exchange Verteilerlisten vergleichen

Vor kurzem habe ich an einer Umfrage teilgenommen, an der eine Gruppe entschieden hat, ob die derzeit bestehende Verteilerliste gegen eine Yammer Gruppe getauscht wird.

From the comments why to stay in an Exchange DL or move forward to Yammer there were some interesting arguments and viewpoints. Today I will go through some of them and explain how you can handle that in either technology. ...

Delegate365 changelog version 2.9Setup Wizard

Delegate365 changelog version 2.9Setup Wizard

In Delegate365 version 2.9 the setup wizard for the primary configuration was slightly changed. The setup process must be run to configure D365 with any (existing) Office 365 tenant. The only things you need are the configuration password (provided by atwork) and the login and password of a global administrator of your Office 365 tenant, see also here. Do I need to run the setup? If you already received a Trial of Delegate365 with a new, preconfigured Office 365 tenant these steps are not necessary. This setup process is for organizations who want to use their own Office 365 (demo) tenant or for renewal of the D365 Service Account. If you got an email by atwork with the setup URL and a configuration password (code) you are able to complete the described steps here. ...
