Here at Innovia we are committed to providing free resources to help you get more out of your business investments. And that is why we are proud to announce our new Podcast called “The Innovia Conversation.” Each episode focuses on different aspects of running your business such as manufacturing, warehousing and your sales process to name a few. But the key element of this podcast is to show you how Microsoft solutions are available to help you increase the productivity of your business while saving valuable time and money.

You might recognize the hosts of the Innovia Conversation.  Steve Waltz and Jeff Pergolski from our customer engagement team have generously volunteered to lead the Podcast. We are excited to see what kind of content they come up with. Behind the Scenes we have Tim Britton editing and publishing each episode. In the days ahead expect to see many members of Team Innovia as special guests on the show. Along with other thought leaders in the Business Central / Microsoft Dynamics NAV space.

Make sure you check out the first five episodes of the Innovia Conversation. Available now on your favorite Podcast platform (iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, etc.). Follow the link below to start listening today.

Microsoft recently began notifying users about its plans to end support for standalone versions of Office (aka perpetual licenses) in October 2020. This means that these versions of Office (2010-2016) will no longer connect to all of the cloud services that you know and love. Follow the link to learn more.
