'Online identity critical for business success'

GoDaddy, the technology provider dedicated to small businesses, announced that Vishal FinCap, a financial services firm in Gujarat, has improved collaboration and enhanced productivity among employees by using Microsoft Office 365 from GoDaddy. The entire suite of services, which includes Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, One Note and Publisher, is available starting at just INR 149/month with annual purchase. Users also have access to GoDaddy’s world-class 24/7 customer care and a simple, one step process for connecting their domain to their Office 365 account.

 “As a proprietary trading and wealth management firm, we needed to ensure that critical client data was stored safely and that I could access it from anywhere. I also wanted to improve collaboration with my team members. Office 365 from GoDaddy redefined flexibility for me. I can create a spreadsheet on my laptop, edit it on my tablet and share it from my smart phone,” said Mr. Patel, Founder of Vishal FinCap. “GoDaddy provides the convenience of having an entire suite of services in one place at an affordable price, so I can focus on growing my business.”

 Mr. Patel first established an online presence for Vishal FinCap by acquiring their domain name (URL) from GoDaddy. As their business grows, Vishal FinCap is using GoDaddy services to address new needs and opportunities. Microsoft Office 365 from GoDaddy offers business-class email, shared calendars, instant messaging, online conferencing and access to current documents. Features such as OneDrive offers 1TB of online storage, and Team Site allows employees to conduct web-based discussions and meetings. These capabilities delivered as cloud services are available to users wherever they are, online or offline and across a variety of devices. Office 365 includes built-in security features that help deflect malware, spam, phishing attacks and other threats.

 “Setting up Microsoft Office 365 from GoDaddy was also easy, thanks to GoDaddy’s excellent Customer Support service. The customer care team was very forthcoming and guided me every step of the way,” Mr. Patel added.

 Encouraged by the success and ease of establishing his online presence, Mr. Patel is preparing to extend his digital footprint with GoDaddy and plans to register for other email and hosting services as well.

 “As the Internet continues to gain momentum, and small businesses increasingly become the backbone of India’s economy, we believe that having an online identity is critical for long term business success.  We are delighted to have helped Vishal FinCap establish their online identify and now improve business collaboration and productivity with Microsoft Office 365 from GoDaddy”, said Rajiv Sodhi, Vice President and Managing Director, GoDaddy India. “Our aim is to equip small businesses and individuals with affordable, easy-to-use and best-of-breed technology solutions, enabling them to build an impactful global online identity.”

 As the world’s largest Web domain registrar, GoDaddy is empowering small businesses with the solutions they need – including domains, web sites, and business productivity tools such as Microsoft Office 365 – to successfully create and grow their presence online. Vishal FinCap is an example of how GoDaddy India is helping small business owners establish their online presence and run their businesses in a more effective and efficient way.
