Why are we upgrading at this time?

Background

As most PC users are aware, Microsoft is continuously updating and patching their software products. They do this to fix bugs and security holes. Keeping our PCs and applications patched is important to the security of the information systems we use. So, when Microsoft announced that it would no longer be supporting, patching or fixing Office 2000, the IT department initiated a plan to upgrade that application suite.

Budget

Upgrades to major software like the operating system or the Office suite is budgeted years in advance. The expense of the current upgrade project was built into our budget over a year ago. Some might wonder if, in these challenging economic times, we should upgrade the Office suite. The answer is absolutely yes. The agency couldn’t go about its daily business without applications like Outlook, Word, Excel, and all the patches that keep them running and secure.

Features

The IT department has chosen to upgrade to Microsoft Office 2007. This is the most current version of the software suite we currently use, Office 2000. There are many improvements to the program features, and the most noticeable is probably the new user interface. You may want to visit the Microsoft Office website to check out their video tours of the software, and lots of other information.
