Konica Minolta launches Workplace One
April 19, 2023
With Workplace One, Konica Minolta provides a compact, digital workplace package consisting of a managed Microsoft 365 environment, managed backup services for data security, proactive remote monitoring, and the implementation of Microsoft’s Online Services.
With Workplace One, Konica Minolta provides its customers with a digital workplace for communication and collaboration, whose IT architecture it sets up and which it manages and administers in the cloud, thus significantly relieving IT departments. Workplace One is already being sold successfully in Sweden and is therefore now to be launched across Europe.
Konica Minolta will first launch the “Workplace One Collaboration & Communication” package which is based on Microsoft’s 365 Business Basic licence and includes a managed Microsoft 365 environment, managed backup services, proactive monitoring, and implementation of Microsoft’s Online Services (such as Exchange, Teams, OneDrive etc.).
The cyber risk from ransomware attacks is growing daily. With its managed backup services, Konica Minolta offers its customers an automated, fully managed backup and recovery service to avoid data loss and expensive and lengthy business interruptions. With its management services and daily backups, Konica Minolta ensures that all its customers’ email and files – including OneDrive, SharePoint and Microsoft Teams – are always protected. Multifactor authentication further prevents unauthorised access to sensitive information. The data is hosted at Konica Minolta Data Centres in Germany and Sweden.
Konica Minolta remotely monitors the availability and performance of online services and usage to detect any interface issues or possible improvements in usage of the services.
Workplace One also includes activation of applicable Online Services such as Exchange, Teams, OneDrive etc. in Microsoft 365 to ensure that your employees have access and remote work capabilities. Employees can also access Microsoft 365 applications as well as cloud storage assigned to them via Microsoft 365 portals and applications.
The platform is configured to the exact requirements of each organisation and can be scaled as needed. The number of users and capacity requirements are variable, allowing applications and users to be added or removed. Konica Minolta’s Workplace One addresses organisations with up to 300 employees that either already use Microsoft 365 but still manage it themselves, or those that do not yet use it.
John Palmqvist, Business Owner Workplace One at Konica Minolta Business Solutions Europe said: “With Workplace One, we aim to drive digital transformation, especially for small and medium-sized organisations, and to help our customers migrate to the cloud. It is a digital workplace that is available and secure everywhere, that relieves IT teams of administrative tasks while also providing planning security; and that promotes communication and collaboration.”
