Did you know that Microsoft 365 offers setup guides that can help to give you tailored guidance and resources for planning and deploying your tenant, apps, and services? Leveraging the same amazing best practices that Microsoft 365 FastTrack follow, you too can get your tenant up and running quickly. What if I have had my tenant for a while in production already? You can still benefit from these as ways to quickly validate you’ve followed some core best practices in specific areas covered by these setup guides.

 

We are excited to share that the setup guide for Microsoft Purview Compliance Manager has also recently been added giving Microsoft 365 admins a quick and easy way to kick off their Compliance Manager journey. As a reminder Compliance Manager helps you manage your organization’s compliance requirements with greater ease and convenience.
