  12. Who are we? We (SalamanderSoft) are a small, but dynamic, team dedicated to providing first class products and services to the Education Sector. Through our integration products for school systems, we help our customers to connect their on-site and off-site systems in exactly the way they need to support teaching and learning as well as school administration. As our customer base is growing, we are looking for an experienced support consultant/technician to help us maintain our level of support to our new and existing customers. SalamanderSoft currently consists of 9 employees, the majority of which are operations/support staff. It is a small close-knit company and our ethos is to provide excellent service to our customers and to be the best at what we do. This is reflected in the fact that all our sales are via word of mouth/recommendations - we do not have a sales team, and we are still growing strongly. All our roles are remote working, so you will be working from home. We have a great reputation with our customers as evidenced by this thread on EduGeek: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/recommended-suppliers/160503-salamandersoft-singing-praises.html Who we are looking for Your attitude will be key, we will be looking for someone who: uses their initiative and gets things done is comfortable working with customers and aims to deliver over their expectations has enthusiasm and interest in technology. wants to be the best that they can be and strives for excellence is able to work independently and remotely has a hunger to learn new skills We're not looking for exact skills as we will train you in any you do not have, but on a day to day basis you might be working with: Active Directory Office 365 including Azure Active Directory Exchange G Suite - all parts of it Querying SQL Server School MIS systems such as SIMS.net PowerShell REST APIs As this is a remote role you will need a suitable area for working in your home, a broadband connection and probably a kettle. This is very much a customer focussed role, and regular customer contact via Phone/Skype and email will be essential. With technology being such as fast-moving field, we would expect you to have a thirst for knowledge and be keen to improve your skills, with a proven track record of doing so. What you will be doing You will be joining the existing support and installations team (currently made up of 5 people) to help us remotely install and support our range of products into schools and other Education institutions across the UK and further afield.

  13. Planner became Generally Available on Monday this week and has been steadily rolling out to applicable tenancies this week. Forms is under preview, but is more widely available starting this week.
  14. We've been working with Microsoft on SDS in the UK focussing on automation and MIS Integration, and I should note that if you are using the CSV uploads then the data will go outside of the EU. I would not recommend using live data until it has been fully released for the UK market at which point the data will stay within the EU. I would expect that some, if not all, of the Classroom data itself is also stored in Classroom itself which is currently hosted in the US. Of course if you are using test data, then all should be OK.
  15. I'm running windows phones with both 8.1 and 10 preview and they are all working fine with O365 using auto discover. On different tenancies too.
