Microsoft Community Office Hours, Episode 21

For the 21st episode of Microsoft Community Office Hours series, I was joined by Sean McDonough, MVP (@spmcdonough), Hal Hostetler, MVP (@TVWizard), Eric Riz, MVP (@rizinsights), and Microsoft’s Neil Hodgkinson (@Nellymo) with our discussion shared via live stream in the Office 365 Community on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/Office365Community/).

If you have any question you would like us to address, you can send them to OfficeHours@CollabTalk.com 

If you like this format, be sure to join us every Monday at 8am (for EMEA) and 6pm (for APAC) following the ask-me-anything (AMA) format. The AMA allows us to connect with each other and also help anyone in the community with questions about Microsoft products and services. If you have questions about Microsoft products or services, please feel free to post them here, on the FB page, or send to me via Twitter or FB direct message.
