Cloud solutions – from our perspective.
During the fall of 2019, I attended TechDays Sweden as a Speaker alongside my colleague (and one of the founders of Altitude 365) Magnus Göransson. We had 2 sessions. One was a pre-day in the PowerPlatform and the other was a 1 hour session on every day digitalization using the PowerPlatform. In both, I showcased how you can make a simple recurring task creator using Planner, a SharePoint list and a flow in Power Automate. Figured I might as well publish it as a blog post as well to make sure everyone has a chance to copy with pride.

Ah, yes. The mighty Power Platform in which your imagination is usually the biggest obstacle. Today my creativity stretches from Twitter to Power Automate and into Power BI. The best part of this blogpost is that you can do this yourself and it’ll take less than 15 minutes. Promise! (Might need Power BI Pro, but who could live without that anyway?).

In an ever changing, evergreen, cloud environment you should really consider a Champions program to be successful. One simple way of getting everyone together is to create a Team in Microsoft Teams for your Champs to collaborate, share ideas and so on. Here’s some things to consider for that Champions team of yours!
The number of organizations out there that are not showing interest in moving from Skype to Teams are becoming something of an endangered species. Some would say that only the dead fish follow the stream and I’ve never truly understood that saying. In this blog post I’ll explain both that as well as things to consider in your journey from Skype to Teams.
Let’s now take another bite out of Shifts, but this time from the end user side of things. It’s after all the firstline workers that will make up the majority of users. So, it’s important to understand and view it from their perspective as well.
Want to get started in Microsoft Shifts? Are you interested in a solution that helps your shift scheduling for firstline workers? Or maybe you’re here because StaffHub is getting retired? Nonetheless let’s take a closer look at how to get started in Microsoft Shifts and get your shift planning in order.
Times are changing. Times has changed already actually. In our new era of the evergreen cloud, onboarding and adoption seems to be on everyone’s minds. I figured I might as well share some of my ideas around the area in a blog post instead of just talk about it in workshops or meetings.
Crimes data visualized | I recently got an assignment for a customer to build a Power BI report that will visualize geographical data for politicians in order for them to make more informed decisions. This inspired me the same way it obviously would have for any other sane person (right?) to spend a few hours building a report based on sample data and make a blog post about it.
Build your Champions team. In Teams. Allright so many organizations are creating their Champions teams of early adopters to help them in their quest to adopt the services and ways of working with Microsoft 365. Refer to this blog post as guidelines or to give you inspiration on how you can improve the environment for your Champions within Microsoft Teams! It will only take you 10 minutes from start to finish!
Keep track of your tasks | That sentence usually means to keep track of your actual tasks in lists and such. What I mean this time is how you keep up with an acceptable amount of tasks to make sure you keep improving and accomplishing over time.
I’ve spent about 200 hours in Teems meetings when this blog post is written. Based on that experience I’ve conducted this blog post as a sort of quick step guide on the things to consider for the perfect meeting. Unless you want to spend 10 minutes reading it, you could always just spend 200 hours in meetings of course!

Why usage data is important | The move to Office 365 is not just about moving a bunch of data to someone else’s datacenter. It is a more modern way of working which provides fantastic opportunities around collaboration both internally and externally, spreading information with audio and video, smart tools built upon machine learning and AI, intelligent security solutions that talks to each other and a lot more. To buy an Office 365 license for a user means that he will get access to much more than just email and intranet. To drive adoption and to make sure that the users learn to get the most out of the new opportunities, you have to measure how the different services are used and how much. This is where usage data comes in.

During the days at TechDays we got a lot of questions if we built something "cool" in Azure that would handle the draw itself? Although we initially intended to run a more old-fashioned method of nameplates with correct answers in a bowl, we felt that this was a challenge we could not leave unmarried.
This year, it’s no problem to come extra thirsty for TechDays, because we at Altitude 365 have bought 4,000 bottles of water that will be distributed at the fair. Also note that the bottles are the key to our TechDays lottery that has many great prizes in the pot, so do not miss to register.
