Welcome to Inscape,
a CDW-built, software-as-a-service and cloud management platform.
In this video, we'll show you how the Microsoft 365 Management feature
makes managing your environment a breeze by letting you generate reports,
improve security and control costs, while
also giving you back valuable time to focus on your business.
You'll log in by visiting admin.inscape365.com
and using your Microsoft single sign-on information.
Once logged in, you'll see the Microsoft 365 Management dashboard,
which is seamlessly integrated within your environment.
Let's take a look around!
Managing your environment shouldn't be cumbersome, which is why our service
is designed with an intuitive, graphical and comprehensive interface.
It provides built in reports and data at the click of a button
so your staff can focus on their work instead of a PowerShell command window.
First, click the gear icon at the top right of the screen
to manage role-based access control for your environment.
Here, you'll decide
what privileges and permissions your team members will have within the platform.
Now let's look at the dashboard, which provides data around
user management, security management and cost management.
In the user management section, you'll see a high-level
view of your licenses purchased versus how many have been deployed,
the number of recently created mailboxes, and any that are on litigation
hold or have been deleted.
You can also view your Mail Traffic Summary, key Office 365 stats,
including shared mailboxes, and your top ten mailboxes by size.
The Security Management service allows you to quickly track your Azure
Active Directory security risk metrics so you can address any risks immediately.
You can also view your password risk, mailbox forwarding
and multi-factor authentication information.
The Cost Measurement dashboard lets you view your total license cost information
so you can see how much you're spending on unassigned licenses,
as well as the percentage of licenses assigned.
It also displays licenses assigned to blocked and inactive users,
giving you the ability to easily pinpoint areas of potential savings.
To dive further into your mailboxes, users
and licenses, click on Office 365 at the top.
The Mailbox Dashboard lets you view mailbox details,
including recently created mailboxes, total mailbox storage
total mailbox count, externally forwarded mailboxes
and mailboxes with full and send permissions,
so you can quickly see who has access to mailboxes and the permissions in place.
Storage Usage lets you dig deeper by giving you an at-a-glance view of how
your tenant is doing against the archive and mailbox storage quota.
The User dashboard shows you how many users have passwords
set to never expire, as well as blocked users. In the Licenses section,
you'll see your current license usage and costs.
Within License Costs,
you can quickly
see how many licenses are available, which can help you optimize your spend.
It's recommended to update this information with your actual license cost
for more accurate reporting.
Maximize your time by performing bulk operations.
Here, you can perform updates such as mailbox auditing, applying
litigation holds, setting retention policy and disabling accounts.
Microsoft 365 Management also has a robust reporting service
that gives you better insight into what's going on in your organization.
There are numerous reports you can choose from, customize and set up
to be sent directly to your inbox.
Select from the wide range of Office 365 categories to suit your business needs.
If you need to export mailboxes from the Office 365
cloud to your on-premise environment or HR search,
the PST Export feature makes it simple and intuitive.
There's even a guide for how to add an Azure blob storage location.
The onboarding and offering wizard helps you automate and improve your provisioning
and deprovisioning process, enabling your entire IT infrastructure
to run smoothly and providing a seamless experience for your users.
Server maps allow you to easily track the exact location
of your organization's mailboxes in Office 365
and make sure you're compliant with location-based regulations.
With all these features and more, Inscape Microsoft 365 Management makes
managing your environment easy and gives you a better return on your investment.
