Get More on Office 365 Reporting Tools

Do you find yourself asking…

  • What is Office 365 reporting?
  • How do Office 365 license reports work?
  • Why is Office 365 license reporting important?
  • How do I check my Office 365 license?
  • How do I manage a license in Office 365?
  • What does an Office 365 reporting tool do?
  • How does the Office 365 reporting tool work in SAM?

Office 365 reporting is the process of documenting Office 365 metrics for a specific period of time to gain insights to improve Office 365 management. 

For instance, an admin could create an Office 365 license report to reveal how licenses have been used over the past month. The report could include the specifics of who is using individual licenses and how they’re using them. 

Comprehensive Office 365 reporting can require running an array of reports to reveal various aspects of how your organization uses the program. Typical Office 365 reports may include:

  • Office 365 license reports
  • Office 365 email reports
  • Office 365 admin reports
  • Office 365 availability reports
  • Office 365 uptime reports

Relevant reports measure key aspects of Office 365 activity, including license usage, user mailbox security, top senders, inactive exchange users, and portal access. Admins can then use those insights to adjust their license management and make the most of the organization’s Office 365 investment. 

 

Office 365 license reports collect usage statistics for the various licenses making up your Office 365 environment. If some of your licenses aren’t being used, the organization is paying for licenses it doesn’t need. Office 365 license reporting can reveal relevant aspects of license usage to help you make smarter decisions about license management. 

Office 365 reports provide information about which licenses are being used within the organization and how often they’re being used. You may choose to run reports for the past week, month, or some other timeframe. 

Office 365 reports provide a range of information, typically organized by service type, user, time period, or other relevant criteria. For instance, you can check which users have activated their Office subscription for at least one device or view the breakdown of activations across desktops and other devices. You can also check which users are using Office 365 often, which users are reaching their quotas, and which users aren’t using the license at all. With Office 365 license reports, you can also pull useful contextual information regarding role changes and retention policies. 

Office 365 license reporting can help an organization save money, use the platform to its full potential, and ensure data security. 

Office license reports can tell you which licenses are and aren’t being used. With detailed insights from Office 365 reporting tools, you can discover if there are any accounts you are paying for that haven’t been used. You can then stop payment for those unused accounts and avoid costly over-licensing. 

With Office 365, you can check whether employees are using the platform. Office 365 admin reports can tell you whether certain users are adopting the services and which features are being used. You can use the information to encourage your users to try out underutilized features, helping ensure your organization benefits from its investment. 

Checking your Office 365 license can mean one of two things. An admin might check what Office 365 subscriptions the organization has purchased, or a user might view which licenses they have at their disposal. The process for either of these is simple. 

If you’re an administrator trying to check what Office 365 subscriptions your office has purchased, you can find the information within the Products and Services page of the Office 365 admin center. You should see all your subscriptions displayed clearly, with the name of the subscription, its status, and other information. 

If you’re a user in an organization with Office 365, you can easily check which services you’re licensed to use. Simply sign in to your Office 365 work account and navigate to the Subscriptions page within My Account. There you’ll see the version of the service you’re running and which services you’re licensed to use. 

You can manage a license in Office 365 by running Office 365 license reports and using the resulting information to assign or reassign licenses as needed.

The first step for managing a license in Office 365 is to gain insight into how the service is being used. Office 365 reporting tools provide detailed Office 365 admin reports, so you can see exactly how individuals are using various licenses.

The next step is using those insights to change licensing for specific users in your organization. Only admins can assign or reassign licenses in Office 365. The process is relatively straightforward regardless of whether you’re working with a single user or if you’re looking to change a license for multiple users. Simply sign in to the Office 365 admin center and navigate to Active Users, where you can check the boxes beside specific user names to add or remove licenses.

An Office 365 reporting tool is designed to help you easily keep track of usage and performance data for your Office 365 environment, including email usage, licensing, and availability.

Office 365 reporting tools offer pre-set and customizable templates you can use to pull detailed statistics on key aspects of the Office 365 platform. These templates are built to streamline your reporting process, maximize your insights, and ensure you don’t miss out on relevant data.

Office 365 reporting tools are also built to make the collected data more intelligible for admins, by offering Office 365 reports dashboards where data is displayed clearly.

Overall, an Office 365 reporting tool is built to provide more granular insights than those available through the Office 365 platform alone. In addition, the reporting tool may even allow you to report on other key business applications, offering additional context about performance and security that could inform your Office 365 management.

SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor is built to help you make the most out of your Office 365 environment. It can provide comprehensive Office 365 monitoring and detailed Office 365 reporting for admins, with information on licenses, email, and uptime.

The Office 365 reporting tool is designed to help management make informed decisions about licensing to reduce spending. It does this by collecting metrics related to licensing usage over time, inactive users, subscriptions assigned by user, and underutilized services.

SAM can also help you monitor your Office 365 Exchange accounts. The reporting tool collects data on users over quota, shared/user mailbox growth, inactive mailboxes, archived mailboxes, and more, providing historical growth visualizations designed to help you stop potential problems before they impact users.

Since you’re likely to be moving your email to a cloud service like Office 365 to improve performance, SAM also offers Office 365 availability reports.

SAM does all this and more using Office 365 reporting templates, which come in the form of PowerShell scripts. Depending on what metrics you’re looking to measure and monitor, you can select from a variety of preset templates, including the following (and many others):

  • Microsoft Office 365 Exchange Mailboxes
  • Microsoft Office 365 License Statistics
  • Microsoft Office 365 OneDrive
  • Microsoft Office 365 Security Statistics
  • Microsoft Office 365 SharePoint Online
  • Microsoft Office 365 Skype
  • Office 365 User Statistics with PowerShell

To deploy a template simply pick which Office 365 URL you’re looking to monitor, create a new node in SAM with that web address, assign a template to the node, and provide Office 365 credentials. From there, SAM can begin creating detailed reports to provide the information you need to know.
