Virgin Megastore has 11 retail music stores across the United States, and the 1,400 employees in those stores exchange information daily with staff in the company's Los Angeles headquarters. The company decided to make information creation and sharing easier and more effective by installing Microsoft Office Professional 2007 to take advantage of multiple productivity-boosting features. The IT staff used Microsoft tools to speed deployment to a preliminary group of 85 workers, who report that they've been able to use Office Professional 2007 to improve productivity, enhance the quality of their work, and communicate with colleagues more effectively. Office Professional 2007 also provides a gateway to making full use of Microsoft unified communications software such as Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007.
