Canadian Cancer Society’s transition to Office 365 use helps bottom line

Canadian Cancer Society has been able to keep its bottom line in check after leaving behind its costly outdated technology for Microsoft’s Office 365 platform. According to the non-profit, the transition is set to save them over $250,000 in the next five years or so. The migration was spearheaded by the Cancer Society’s divisions in Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, and Prince Edward Island.

What prompted the shift most likely is a relatively young set of staff and volunteers. The Canadian Cancer Society in Ontario alone has 412 staff and around 55,000 to 65,000 volunteers, many of them are under the age of 30. Using Office 365 lets them access their information from almost any mobile device, making collaboration easier.
