NYC area Microsoft Partner explains new features in Office Mobile Voice Notes, including real-time transcription, synced text, and voice note sharing—in a new article from Messaging Architects
Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and Microsoft expert, discusses new features of Microsoft’s Office Mobile Voice Notes program in a new article. The informative article first explains that in the new Voice Notes released earlier this year users gain several features, including real-time transcription. The author also states that for Microsoft 365 subscribers, the utility provides the ability to differentiate among multiple speakers. He explains how to use the real-time transcription feature and text highlighting synced to playback. He concludes by reviewing how to export transcriptions and recordings. “Modern mobile workers dictate memos on the subway, record inspiration in the taxi and conduct interviews on the sidewalk,” stated Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at Messaging Architects. “Microsoft makes that process easier with Office Mobile Voice Notes.”
Real-Time Speech to Text Transcription
“To record a voice note, open the Microsoft Office app on your device, then tap the + button at the bottom center of your screen. Select Voice from the Quick Capture popup menu. Tap the microphone icon to start recording. As you speak, the real-time transcription appears on the screen. Click Done to complete the recording and save the voice note to OneDrive.”
Text Highlighting Synced to Playback
“Voice Notes facilitates the reviewing process by highlighting the text during playback. That is, when you select a recording and tap Play, the utility highlights the text phrase by phrase in sync with the playback. This makes it much easier to find the spots in the text that need editing.”
Share Office Mobile Voice Notes
“Office Mobile Voice Notes allows users to easily export transcriptions to Word. They can also share either the Word document or the audio file with others. For instance, to share the note, open the voice note and tap Share. Choose Word Document or Audio File.”
Differentiate Between Multiple Speakers
“For users with a Microsoft 365 subscription, Voice Notes will recognize multiple speakers and partition accordingly. For instance, if Voice Notes hears multiple voices, it will prompt the user to indicate whether everyone has given permission to be recorded. The real-time transcription will then proceed as normal.”
Get the Most Out of Microsoft 365
Microsoft continually upgrades its products, adding features to improve productivity and security. Contact the Microsoft Office experts at Messaging Architects to discuss how to optimize the organization’s use of Office Mobile and other Microsoft apps.

Margrethe Vestager to Open IWDK 2021 in Denmark
Open forums like this play an important civic role in bringing businesses, educational institutions, political leaders and citizens together to learn, discuss and set a path for the future
AARHUS, Denmark (PRWEB) February 17, 2021
European Commission Vice-President Margrethe Vestager will open the 2021 Internet Week Denmark Festival (IWDK) in May and deliver one of the week’s first keynote presentations related to the festival’s theme: Trust and Technology/Today and Tomorrow. As both the European Commissioner for Competition and The Vice President for the European Commission on A Europe Fit for the Digital Age , Margrethe Vestager is one of the most important regulators of the global tech industry and one of the world’s most influential policy makers on the development of new technologies. ”It’s a pity that we can’t be together in person. But it’s important that we can still meet. Because change is coming at us fast, and keeping Europe on the frontier of technology is important. So open forums like this play an important civic role in bringing businesses, educational institutions, political leaders and citizens together to learn, discuss and set a path for the future,” says Vestager. This year’s IWDK festival will be held online through a virtual festival platform. Vestager will speak as part of the Festival’s opening event on May 4, which will be livestreamed and feature prominent keynotes each giving their perspective on the Trust & Tech agenda. “As users, customers and companies, we all need a broad selection of safe and secure online products and services. It is just like in the physical world,” says Vestager. “All companies doing business in Europe, small and large, must have the same rights and freedom to compete online, just as they do offline. Whether it is about shopping on the web or shopping on the high street, whether it is scrolling on screen or turning the pages of a newspaper, we all must be able to trust the news we read. For that which is illegal offline is just as illegal online.”        
IWDK organisers hope that the opening event will provide insights into how both Denmark and the EU can get the most out of developing technologies while also addressing dilemmas related to topics like artificial intelligence, cyber security, data privacy and e-commerce. “Technology continues to improve our lives in remarkable ways and it is important that we understand, discuss and address the implications of that change as we go. That’s what IWDK is all about.” says Festival Director Randi Vestergaard. “We couldn’t imagine a better person to provide that perspective right now than Margrethe Vestager.”

Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and email migration expert shares tips to ensure a successful email migration for law firms in a new article on its website. The informative article first encourages readers to involve lawyers and other key stakeholders in the planning process. The author then shares additional tips, including reviewing what data to migrate and understanding the security and compliance requirements up front. He urges readers to use the migration as an opportunity to beef up security and to proactively automate email policies. “Moving years of accumulated email to a new system safely and securely can prove challenging,” stated Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at Messaging Architects. “But email migration for law firms does not need to be an exercise in frustration.”
Involve Lawyers in Creating a Migration Plan
“Creating and following a step-by-step migration plan can mean the difference between success and failure. Begin by involving key stakeholders in the planning process. This should include not only the migration consultants and IT personnel, but also the lawyers themselves. Involving the lawyers up front will help avoid unnecessary risk.”
Determine What Data to Migrate
“Lawyers send and receive hundreds of emails daily, including many large attachments. Data from years earlier may no longer fall under retention requirements. In fact, saving some old emails may actually pose unnecessary risk. Additionally, large amounts of data increase the time and cost of the migration process.”
Use the Opportunity to Beef Up Security
“An email migration presents the perfect opportunity to assess and upgrade law firm data security , as end users already expect change. Two good places to start include implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) and ensuring solid email encryption. These add critical security layers that help regulatory compliance and prevent costly data breaches.”
“Also, serious consideration should be given to protecting where the data will be residing. This includes forced encryption of laptops and mobile device security and management. Hence, the data cannot be accessed even if the device is lost or compromised.”
Consultants Smooth Email Migration for Law Firms
Moving hundreds or thousands of mailboxes to a new system is complicated. A botched migration process will result in lost productivity and sometimes damaging data loss. However, when law firms partner with reputable email migration experts , they tap into valuable tools and expertise. The consultants at Messaging Architects bring decades of experience with complex email migrations. They will help conduct a detailed pre-migration assessment and planning to ensure a smooth process, from kickoff through end-user training.

Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and  data compliance solution provider, discusses three factors that motivate enterprise business leaders to adopt data ethics business strategy in a new article on the Messaging Architects website. The informative article first reviews the data ethics problem. The author then discusses data-savvy consumers, regulatory fines, and revenue impacts as factors that elevate data ethics to the level of business strategy. He concludes by listing several data ethics principles for readers to consider. “Considering today’s data-savvy consumers, expanding data regulations and the revenue impacts of poor policy, a comprehensive data ethics strategy supported by robust data governance tools should not be optional,” stated Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at Messaging Architects. The Data Ethics Problem
“According to Deloitte, 9.7 billion data records have been lost or stolen worldwide since 2013. And since it went into effect in 2018, more than 95,000 complaints have been filed relating to the EU’s GDPR statute. Despite advances, legislation is not keeping up with the ethical issues raised by the large volume and variety of data collected.”
Data-Savvy Consumers
“Building customer satisfaction and trust provide ample motivation for creating a data ethics strategy. In the modern business landscape, and a world where data breaches continually grab headlines, the conclusion is inescapable. As data-driven technologies expand, e.g. AI, you can expect the demands for ethical data practices to also increase.”
Related Posts
Regulatory Fines
“In a previous post, we looked at current International and U.S. Data Protection Legislation. And fines recently levied against Facebook and Google indicate the seriousness of regulators. Google’s recent record GDPR fine by the French data privacy enforcement agency totaled $57 million, many times larger than previous penalties.”
Revenue Impacts
“In addition to the damage done by data breaches, more people grow skeptical of how their personal data is handled. Many are influenced by the prevalence of personal data-related stories in the news. Thus, organizations can leverage an excellent data governance record to establish data ethics as a component of their brand strategy.”
Look to the Data Experts
As countries and states add to the legal requirements and organizations consider the revenue impacts and adapt to please data-savvy consumers, data ethics strategies stand to grow in importance and visibility.

HOBOKEN, N.J., Sept. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and data compliance solution provider , discusses the outlook for new data protection legislation in a new article on the Messaging Architects website. The informative article first reviews the major legislative milestones of the past two years. The author then summarizes proposed federal data protection legislation. A state-by-state rundown of pending state data protection legislation follows. "GDPR and CCPA set the precedent for data and privacy regulations," stated Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at Messaging Architects. "Other countries and states are sure to follow with similar legislation." "One of the broadest online privacy laws in the U.S., the CCPA regulates organizations nationwide that do business with California residents. In 2019, Nevada and Maine enacted consumer privacy protections similar to the CCPA." Federal Data Protection Legislation
"Just days before the lockdowns began, Congress introduced the "Consumer Data Privacy and Security Act of 2020" (CDPSA). The CDPSA integrates themes from the CCPA and GDPR and corrects some of their shortcomings." 2020 State Data Protection Legislation
"In 2020, at least 30 states and Puerto Rico introduced bills. The proposed state legislation covers everything from the privacy of consumer data and data broker regulation to biometric data and other consumer privacy concerns." Data Protection Experts

Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and  email migration consultant , shares important information to know before migrating message archives to Office 365 in a new article on the Messaging Architects website. The informative article first reviews the third-party archiving practices of journaling, message archiving and message stubbing. The author then discusses how the various record storage formats would migrate to Microsoft 365 and how the message records would then be stored. An engaging question and answer format is used to clearly explain the complex subject. “Before you make the leap, take the time to understand the facts about archives and the way Office 365 handles data,” stated Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at Messaging Architects. “Organizations looking to migrate their archived data to Office 365, face at least three questions and decisions.”
Before Making the Leap
“Many organizations making the  leap to Office 365  for their business services also choose to  migrate their legacy data . Whether from existing mail systems or third-party archiving systems, they find little objection to migrating archives to Office 365 because the excessive data storage costs nothing. In addition, Microsoft provides eDiscovery tools around that data, depending on licensing.”
Journaling
“For organizations wishing to capture all email correspondence and conduct eDiscovery, they typically supported a function called Journaling. Journaling forwards a copy of every message sent or received in the source email system to the archive.”
Mailbox Archiving and Message Stubbing
“Many organizations seek to manage the size of their message stores on their local email system. In this case, archiving products conduct mailbox archiving and message stubbing. Mailbox archiving takes messages directly from the users’ mailbox and stores them on the archival system by owner.”
“In some cases, message stubs or links connect the message in the users’ mailbox with the archived content to reduce storage overhead. This archiving approach also provides full eDiscovery, but typically facilitates space management in systems that provide both options.”
Migrating Archives to Office 365 Successfully
Organizations migrating third party archives and legacy email from inactive accounts seek to do so without ongoing problems. Hence, they should fully understand and explore the requirements of the organization with respect to information retention and access. In addition, they need to fully consider the various ways the data maps to the archiving and retention structures of Office 365. Fortunately, Messaging Architects’ Office 365 migration experts provide the assistance necessary to complete  archive migrations to Office 365  efficiently and successfully.
