Whether your organization is migrating from a different platform or adopting a collaboration solution for the first time, choosing Microsoft Teams has clear benefits. It provides the opportunity to consolidate all your productivity and collaboration tools in a single environment — especially if you’re already using Microsoft 365 — and to take advantage of licensing cost benefits. But migrating to any new software is also a precarious time, and Teams is no exception.

Scale is a perennial challenge for most IT teams. While organizations expect the same performance and experience whether 500 users are accessing essential applications or 50,000, IT headcount rarely increases in proportion with organizational growth. This often leaves IT departments overtaxed and pressed to triage the most urgent concerns. But even that requires good data to inform decisions — which can be in short supply.

IT teams often find themselves in a constant state of emergency: dealing with issues as they arise. So few issues are reported when they happen that IT teams are left with no choice but to be reactive. This reactive approach is not only a drain on resources, it also hampers system improvements and reduces user satisfaction.

The old saying that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” has never been truer for IT teams. Many analysts say proactive IT management is long overdue, and in domains such as cybersecurity and e-commerce, the push is on to detect and stop potential issues early instead of troubleshooting after the fact. So why are so many IT groups stuck in reactive mode when it comes to managing business-critical communication and collaboration applications like Microsoft Teams?

Enhanced visibility is crucial and to best meet current business needs requires an understanding of the level of satisfaction when using Microsoft 365. There is a growing demand to learn and know how users feel about the quality of their experience. Take a deep dive into the difference between Service Level Agreements and Experience Level Agreements and why the enhanced visibility is crucial to best meetyour current business needs.
As digital transformation accelerates, the user experience is becoming a critical priority for CIOs. A growing number of services are being delivered as cloud-based software as a service (SaaS), but infrastructure and operations (I&O) teams lack visibility and control of the user experience. Digital business initiatives can only be successful if the user's experience is a good one.
With over 200 million users of Microsoft 365 worldwide, it's evident that organizations are putting the productivity of their users into the hands of Microsoft's cloud-based office solution. From communications using products like Exchange Online, and Teams; to collaboration using SharePoint Online; to leveraging OneDrive for document storage and sharing; organizations shifting to Microsoft 365 rely heavily on these tools as the foundation for their operational ecosystem.
It has become the backbone of many organizations, where conference calls, meetings, collaboration, and sharing all take place. This dependency makes it a critical application that requires consistent optimal performance to effectively maintain user productivity. For most Microsoft 365 applications, monitoring performance of a service like Exchange Online revolves around Exchange-related services, logs, etc. With Teams however, ensuring optimal performance proves to be a more complex task, and even more so when utilizing native tools.
With increasingly complex systems sustaining mission-critical services, IT departments are hard at work designing business continuity strategies to avoid unpleasant surprises. Each year companies lose $26.5 billion in revenue due to IT downtime - either planned or unplanned. When there are critical application failures on the network the costs can hit a staggering 1 million dollars per hour lost in Fortune 100 companies.

Martello Technologies is headquartered in Ottawa, Canada with staff in Canada, Europe and the United States. We provide digital experience monitoring (DEM) solutions that monitor the performance of cloud collaboration and productivity tools to give enterprises insight into the user experience. Our products include unified communications (UC) performance analytics software, Microsoft 365 user experience monitoring software and IT analytics software.
Traditional network and application performance monitoring approaches lack insight into the user experience of cloud services. Martello’s digital experience monitoring (DEM) solutions provide deeper insight by correlating data on network and application performance with insight into the user’s experience of the service. While other DEM solutions can make this connection between performance and user experience, Martello takes this a step further, demonstrating to enterprises why the problem happened.
