The Art of Delegation: The new Office 365 Partner Admin Center

So you say you’re moving to Office 365 / SharePoint Online with the help of a leading technology partner, and you’d like that partner to help you manage the platform going forward? Look no further, says Microsoft– the Office 365 Partner Admin Center is here!
According to the official Office 365 Technology Blog:The Art of Delegation: The New Office 365 Partner Admin Center

The new Office 365 Partner admin center provides Partners new and enhanced tools to manage their Office 365 customers.  The new Office 365 Partner admin center is rolling out to partners worldwide over the next few weeks.
Previously, with Partner tools in the Office 365 admin center, [partners] could perform delegated administration tasks on behalf of customers and create trial invitations.

With the Partner Admin Center, now partners can take on the kinds of tasks– with ease– that you have always wanted us to, and often asked us to, including the ability to find, select, and perform administrative tasks on your behalf, as well as creating, editing, and viewing service requests for you.
Pretty exciting stuff!
I mean, you know… from a managed service perspective, anyway!
