Heart for Kids is a Sydney-based not-for-profit that has been helping children living in poverty for 20 years through child sponsorship and education programs. It has changed the lives of hundreds of children in China, Indonesia and India. But working across international borders as well as multiple locations in Sydney meant that collaborating and securely sharing files had become a real challenge for the organisation. Through Connecting Up’s donations and discounts program Heart for Kids was able to get heavily discounted access to Microsoft 365, a cloud-based platform that combines Office apps with additional tools like chat, video meetings and file storage. The team’s communication and efficiency has vastly improved since rolling out the new software, meaning they can now devote more time to their charitable work.Posted on 26/11/2020 by

These days there is a bewildering array of software available for almost every possible need. Never has the choice been greater. On the face of it this is a good thing but with so many systems available it is very easy to make the wrong decision. Make the wrong decision, choose an inappropriate system, and you could be wasting large amounts of money and staff time and you could even end up with a demoralised workforce who dread coming to work. So how do you choose the best system for your particular organisation? Do you get a recommendation from others, search the web and buy what seems to be most popular? Or attend an exhibition and buy what looks nice?Watch now
