Prepare Students for the Workforce – Microsoft Live@edu
Faced with ever-tightening budgets, educational institutions must be creative to deliver state-of-the-art services to students, faculty, staff, and alumni. Live@edu, a set of hosted online collaboration and communication services,provides educational institutions with advanced technologies while also reducing their total cost of ownership.
Live@edu provides Microsoft Outlook Live email (which is built on Microsoft Exchange Server technology), and access to the Windows Live Messenger instant messaging (IM) client, Windows Live SkyDrive storage
technology, Microsoft Office Web Apps (the online versions of Microsoft Office 2010 programs), and shared
calendars that coordinate with existing calendaring systems.
Live@edu includes both an IT-managed component and a user-managed component.
It can be accessed through popular browsers, including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari, and from Microsoft Office Outlook, Microsoft Office Outlook Mobile, or a third-party email client that uses POP3/IMAP or Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync technology. Schools that are currently using Exchange Server can use the same tools, such as the web-based Exchange control panel, to manage their on-premises services and Live@edu. For example, they can use a Global Address List to incorporate student accounts into their existing infrastructure.
