Overview
This guide was created to visually step you through Office 365 using the Professionals and Small Businesses edition of the service. The purpose is to show you exactly what to do and how to do it. Following the book from cover-to-cover will provide you the proper sequence of steps to perform in order to setup and configure Office 365 as well as quickly ramp-up on the features and functionality available.
"Just show me how to do it!" If you find yourself screaming this while reading technical books, then this book is for you. There are plenty of screenshots and very little text. No individual steps that leave out critical information. Each section clearly shows you what to do and what the results look like.
Screenshots, screenshots, screenshots
Since this is a walkthrough, there are tons of screenshots. There is some text before and/or after each screenshot that explains what to do or explains the screen or dialog. The screenshots are not labeled with figure numbers so you don't have to read about steps and then figure out which picture is showing the step. This book was made to step through each screen, setting, dialog, etc. No need to hunt for pictures and guess what the other steps look like - it's all shown here.
Not Based on Beta
Although Steve was working with Office 365 during the beta phase, this book was authored with the live version of Office 365. Microsoft did make minor changes between beta and the live version. You don't have to worry that things are now different.
Companion Guide
Having this book besides you while setting up and configuring Office 365 is just like having an expert sitting there helping you accomplish the tasks and steps.
