New Delhi, April 21 (IANS) During these tough COVID-10 pandemic times, companies are looking at innovative ways to perform their day-to-day business tasks with ease remotely and Microsoft partners are busy delivering remote work and business continuity solutions across industries and geographies, for educational institutions and governments, to SMBs and large enterprises.
According to Venkat Krishnan, Executive Director, Commercial Partners, Microsoft India, while educational institutions are switching to remote learning and are moving their curriculum to Microsoft Teams, there are some innovative solutions for a transformative digital learning experience.

Employing a 24×7 service desk experience, CINDE, SummitAI’s conversational interface, allows employees to interact using natural language through webchat and Microsoft Teams, among other tools.
Managing contracts for maintaining business continuity, mitigating disrupted supply chains and identifying risk is crucial at this hour.
