Smaller users get Microsoft’s Online Services

By admin | Published: March 3, 2008

Microsoft is to let smaller businesses use some of its key software applications over the internet later this year.

Last September, the company opened its hosted software programme, called Microsoft Online Services, to businesses around the globe with more than 5,000 users.

Now, as it moves rapidly towards the Internet-centric computing favoured by competitors Google and Salesforce.com, Microsoft has opened up the service to general use.
