Episode 26 – Ishai Sagi

Time for another Need to Know podcast to hit the airwaves and in this episode I’m joined by SharePoint MVP Ishai Sagi to talk about some of my favourite subjects, SharePoint and Office 365.

 

We discuss the power of SharePoint, especially in the SMB market and ponder why it hasn’t been as readily adopted as it could be. We discuss the huge opportunities around SharePoint and Office 365 for customers and resellers.

I’m looking for podcast guest

One of the things that I really enjoyed doing last year and has unfortunately dropped away has been my podcast. You can find previous episodes at:

 

http://ciaops.podbean.com

 

Just to set the record straight, it hasn’t been through lack of trying that there hasn’t been a podcast for a while. I can tell you that I have asked a whole lot of people and nobody wants to come on. What the hell? They all can’t have stage fright, surely? I am I really that ugly that it comes through on a podcast?

 

I make the process pretty easy. We pre-record it over Skype at a time that suits you. We talk about a topic you nominate and you can even bring on additional guest if you want. If you have any doubts how easy it is just have a listen to a few previous episodes and ask a few of those guests. I can assure you they all went onto greater fame and fortune. Honestly.

 

As I said, if you have an interesting topic that you’d like to share then I’m all ears as I am sure many others are out there. So please don’t be shy, I’ll make it as easy as I can for you, all you have to say is that you are willing to give it a go.

 

Email me at director@ciaops.com if you are interested.

 

Bueller? Bueller?

It’s back!


Yes, that’s right, the CIAOPS Podcast has finally returned after a hiatus. I’d like to say that its simply because I’ve not had anyone offering to come on the show but luckily Jason Thomas from Ragg Weir has put up his hand and now Episode 19 is available for download.

In this episode Jason and I look at the pros and cons of the Microsoft Server offerings in the SMB space. Is Small Business Server still good value? Is SBS Essentials viable with the move the cloud? Where does Home Server fit in all this. Follow along as Jason provides us with some great insight into what he is seeing out there in the market.
