Setup checklist for my Business Premium plan

Welcome to your Office 365 Business Premium plan! You've just purchased an entire suite of tools that will help make your business more successful. If you're new to Office 365, you might be wondering what it is and how it works. Or maybe you're wondering what to do after you've signed up, signed in, and installed Office on your devices. Whatever the case, we're here to help. Use this checklist to get started with Office 365.

1. Install your Office 365 Apps

(Give yourself at least an hour to do this.)

    First download and install your new Office 365 applications.

    Note: You can skip down to Step 2 to set up your email after you've completed the installation, before setting up the rest of these commonly used apps.

    Get storing with OneDrive for Business
    This is an integral part of Office 365 or SharePoint Server, and provides a place in the cloud where you can store, share, and sync your work files. You can update and share your files from any device with OneDrive for Business. You can even work on Office documents with others at the same time.

    Get notating with OneNote
    You can create, open, view, edit, format, and share the OneNote notebooks that you've created on OneDrive. You'll use this as your hub of working information for your business groups.

    Get talking with Teams on your Mac or PC
    Connect with co-workers or business partners in your company or around the world.

2. Set up your email with Outlook 2016
