31st March 31 2025—IT solutions provider Professional Advantage introduces iWorkplace Elements in Australia, a self-service solution that transforms digital workspaces. Developed by the experts at New Zealand-based IT company Information Leadership, the solution addresses issues typically experienced in out-of-the-box Microsoft 365 deployments by many small to mid-sized businesses.
Sarah Heal, Chief Executive Officer of Information Leadership, explained that this development originated from listening to common frustrations regarding current information management systems. Heal stated, “In many cases, organisations moved quickly to the cloud during COVID but are now left wondering what to do with all of their content. Customers kept telling us their information management systems were dated, out of control, and messy—but often, the solution they needed was simply out of financial reach."
"With our deep technical knowledge and proven iWorkplace tools, we're able to address issues like information compliance and protection, Teams sprawl, and unmanaged OneDrive silos. We've packed our advanced technologies into one simple 'easy to use' solution, making it possible for every organisation to improve their work and meet legislative requirements."
iWorkplace Elements is an ideal solution for many small to mid-sized businesses looking to create an efficient and clutter-free digital workspace while controlling costs and maximising existing Microsoft 365 investments. Seamlessly integrated with SharePoint, Teams, and Azure, it enhances productivity with customisable workflows, advanced security, and metadata-driven search for better compliance and information management.
The core offering, iWorkplace Elements Essentials + Preview, delivers modern document management and automated workflows. Additional modules cater to specific business needs, including Policies and Procedures, Search, Employee Files, Contract Management, and Intranet functionality.
As the sole strategic partner of Information Leadership in Australia, iWorkplace Elements is exclusively available at Professional Advantage.
Derek Rippingale, Managing Director of Professional Advantage, shared, “We are excited to be a key strategic partner in making iWorkplace Elements accessible to the Australian market. The solution allows many small- to mid-sized Australian businesses to mix and match point solutions that address their document management, communication, or workflow needs without the extensive budget or lengthy timeline.”.
“We have been helping customers transform digitally with Microsoft 365 and SharePoint for over twenty years. Adding iWorkplace Elements to our Modern Work portfolio offers better flexibility and more cost-effective options for our clients while benefiting from our extensive experience,” concluded Rippingale.
Professional Advantage is committed to helping organisations achieve more with technology. Since partnering with Information Leadership in 2023, leading organisations in the not-for-profit, transportation, and property management sectors trust and rely on iWorkplace for their information management and compliance needs.
