Managing technology without a dedicated IT staff can be challenging—but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming or expensive. This webinar is designed for lean foundations looking for practical, cost-effective ways to streamline their technology needs.
Join us to explore comprehensive, user-friendly platforms like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace that can help you manage email, collaborative grantmaking, forms, and portals—all in one place. This is not a sales pitch, but a guided overview of the tools available, their key features, pros and cons, and how to evaluate which solution best fits your organization’s needs.
Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to improve your current setup, this session will offer valuable insights to help you make informed and confident tech decisions.
