On August 29, 2013 Johanny Torrico did a webinar on Office 365 for Nonprofits. You can watch the webinar recording and download the slides or review them below. The questions answered during the webinar are included in this recap.
Why do more international NGO’s not have a C-level (CIO, CTO, CDO) IT role? In my experience, most NGO’s don’t feel that they make particularly effective use of technology. While this is by no means a scientific claim, my participation in InsideNGO and relationship with NGO clients of Community IT has led me to this observation.
Richard Wollenberger, IT Director at Parents as Teachers, discusses his thoughts about the mobile device management (MDM) policy they implemented in their organization. He also shared a sample Personal Mobile Policy that can be customized by other organizations.
As a companion piece to Matthew Eshleman’s article on purchasing a new Windows laptop, I wanted to share my thoughts on purchasing a new MacBook. I had been a reliable Windows user for my entire computer career. In fact, the last time I had used a Mac was in college in the early 90s when I had a Mac Classic.
Picking a laptop computer is a very personal and subjective task.

The following post is a Q&A with Michelle Warner, Director of Mobile Citizen, a nonprofit organization providing affordable mobile Internet. Mobile Citizen’s low-cost, high-speed mobile Internet service is 4G technology powered by CLEAR.

Join us for a free webinar with Johanny Torrico, Community IT’s Director of Ongoing Support, who will discuss the benefits of using Office 365 in your organization.
This latest version of Microsoft Office brings not just new features but show us where Microsoft is heading. Microsoft Office 2013 reveals some interesting things. This time the new features are not the main show. Arguably the biggest change is in how to buy it.
In the final post of this series, I focus on the importance of maintaining, upgrading and protecting hardware; updating software regularly and protecting your data on multiple devices and in the cloud.
Good IT policy must be pushed from the very top of the organization. Such policies should be reevaluated periodically. They must also be enforced and upheld by everyone in the company.
