PnP Weekly
PnP Weekly - Episode 102 - 26th of October 2020
In this installment of the weekly discussion revolving around the latest news and topics on Microsoft 365, hosts – Vesa Juvonen (Microsoft) | @vesajuvonen, Waldek Mastykarz (Microsoft) | @waldekm, are joined by veteran (6 months) Cloud Developer Advocate focused on Microsoft Teams - Tomomi Imura (Microsoft) | @girlie_mac. Tomomi actually has been working as a developer advocate for years. Now she is focused on learning the Microsoft product line in order to help others learn the product line.
Discussion about competitive products and why it’s important to explain the capabilities of a product – the use scenario, in a way that conveys what’s possible to help the customer bridge the gap between business needs and technology capabilities. Presently, the crew is quite busy with triage, updates, consolidations, simplifications, etc. In response to how to explain the Microsoft 365 platform opportunity to partners, start with product integration, data locality, a single set of APIs, market size, support, and assistance landing apps.
Finally, hear about Tomomi’s Technology Doodles! A big week of publishing - 21 recently released articles and videos from Microsoft and the PnP Community are highlighted as well. As always, if you need help on an issue, want to share a discovery, or just want to say: “Job well done”, please reach out to Vesa, to Waldek, or to your PnP Community.
