  • Architecting Microsoft Office for Physical,Virtual and Cloud Deployments
    Speakers: Isabelle Maury, Alistair Speirs, Bily Xiao
    Desktop IT pros are faced with several methods to deliver Microsoft Office to client computers. Office offers a wide range of deployment options, ranging from the well proven setup program MSI installation, to VDI, terminal services, and application virtualization. This session discusses approaches to delivering Office 2010 to your users, from training considerations to deployment methods and extensibility. We show you how to merge on-premises, Microsoft Office 365 cloud and web services environments - highlighting potential impacts to your network performance and data security.
  • Managing Microsoft Office in an Interoperable and Multi-Device World
    Speakers: Yoni Kirsh, Jeremy Chapman
    Microsoft Office management is becoming more complex as organizations consider management for their on-premise/hybrid/cloud and multi-platform Windows/Mac OS X solutions. All devices are not created equal, with various degrees of manageability/security through traditional tools. We dive into Office management and security solutions across these topic areas.
  • Zero to Hero in 75 minutes: Building a Fully Functioning Deployment Environment for Free
    Speakers: Brian Shiers, Richard Smith
    This session shows an Office 2003 and Windows XP machine migration to Office 2010 and Windows 7 in less than 75 minutes. The session features a free VHD kit that gives IT a deployment server with all the tools to do basic app and file compat discover, using Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) to customize the image for Office 2010 and Windows 7 installs including GPO, language packs, and a virtualized Office 2010 package, finally pushing that image to the machine with light-touch methods while also migrating user data and settings. This session also looks at the challenges facing typical desktop deployment and provides best practices and tips.
