The mission of Practical 365 is to provide relevant, actionable advice on all things Microsoft, straight from the experts themselves. Regular topics include Microsoft 365, Exchange (Online and on-prem), PowerShell, Entra ID, SharePoint Online, Microsoft Security, and everything in between. We aim to make our news, tips, and tutorials easy to understand and apply to real-world scenarios, helping our global community of IT professionals to optimize their Microsoft experience, and take advantage of everything that the service has to offer. This blog started as Exchange Server Pro but evolved into Practical 365 as Microsoft shifted attention toward cloud services. Original founder Paul Cunningham stepped down in the summer of 2018, and long-time sponsors Quadrotech – specialists in data migration and Office 365 tools – acquired the site to ensure the rich catalog of helpful resources lived on. Then in 2020, Quadrotech was acquired by Quest, and with that came some new available resources to elevate the site even further. A new editorial team is now in place, with Steve Goodman acting as Chief Editor for Audio/Video; Tony Redmond acting as Editorial Director; Paul Robichaux as Contributing Editor, and Jacob Stokes as Managing Editor.
