If you need to move your company to a virtual environment in response to the new coronavirus, Microsoft Teams can help keep your business running with a remote workforce.

DAYTON, OHIO (PRWEB) MARCH 12, 2020
In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, Microsoft is partnering with Centric Consulting, a business and technology consulting firm, to help eligible companies implement a free six-month Office 365 E1 Trial.
This trial subscription includes Microsoft Teams, a communication and collaboration platform that can keep your business running safely and securely in a virtual environment.
“The recent health crisis is disrupting virtually every business in every industry,” said Maurice Faison, who leads Centric’s Microsoft Practice. “We're grateful to be in the position to offer our services in this way at this time.”
Here’s how Centric plans to help companies during this critical time:
     1. Deploy a free, six-month trial of Office 365 E1, which includes Teams, to support eligible organizations who have less than 1,000 employees and meet the following criteria:
         - Do not currently have any Office 365 subscriptions, or
         - Do not have an Office 365 subscription that includes Teams (Exchange Online Plan 1 or Plan 2, or Office 365 Business)
     2. For companies that fall outside those parameters, contact [email protected] to assess your current state of Office 365 and whether you can take advantage of the critical collaboration and communication capabilities of Microsoft Teams.
Founded as a virtual company 20 years ago, Centric has experienced the power of Microsoft Teams firsthand since migrating to Microsoft Office 365 almost two years ago. In just a short time, employees have stated that the platform has helped them better connect with each other and the hundreds of clients they serve across the nation.
“In the 20 years that our company has been working remotely, Teams has been the best tool for us to effectively communicate and collaborate with our own colleagues as well as clients and partners,” said Aaron Aude, who leads Centric’s Enterprise Collaboration Practice.
As a Managed Gold Competency Partner, Microsoft’s highest partner status, Centric has also been recognized for its expert ability to develop, deliver and support Microsoft Cloud solutions like Teams, which helps clients boost productivity.
Centric’s own experience using Microsoft Teams combined with the work the company has accomplished together with clients to deploy, govern and adopt Teams puts them in a unique position to help organizations evaluate their options.
How quickly your company can leverage the capabilities of Microsoft Teams will depend on how you plan to use it, how much time and money you want to invest in the plan, and how committed you are to promote its usage across your workforce.
For organizations that want to quickly deploy basic chat and meeting capabilities, Centric can implement an Office 365 tenant, create accounts, and license people for Teams in less than a week. It would take between two to four weeks to implement more advanced capabilities, which includes providing basic training, adoption, change management, security and compliance, and governance planning.
