Microsoft Copilot Is More Than a Chat Window—Let’s Build with It

Everyone’s talking about Microsoft Copilot, but how do you actually use it well? And more importantly, how do you go beyond the basics to create something truly useful for your team or business?

At our July LouMUG event, we’re diving into Microsoft 365 Copilot with a focus on Copilot Agent Builder—including how to create custom agents for real business scenarios. We’ll talk through what Copilot can do, where custom agents fit in, and how better prompting can lead to better results. If you’ve been curious about how to move from experimenting with Copilot to actually putting it to work, this session is for you.

We’ll walk through live demos of building and configuring Copilot agents, share practical guidance on prompting techniques, and keep things interactive with audience participation and Q&A throughout. Whether you’re just getting started or already exploring Copilot in your organization, you’ll leave with ideas you can actually use.

Key Takeaways

• Practical prompting tips for working with Copilot and custom agents
• A better understanding of Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Agent Builder
• Real-world examples of how custom agents can support specific business needs

Before you write off Windows Admin Center as just another management tool, it’s worth taking a closer look. It’s quickly become a go-to for admins who want a more modern, centralized way to manage Windows environments—without living in a dozen different consoles. And while it’s been around for nearly a decade, it’s evolved a lot—especially with major updates as recently as last year that have made it faster, more capable, and far more practical for everyday use.

Whether you’ve dabbled in it or haven’t touched it yet, there’s a lot more inside than most people realize.

That’s what this session is for. We’re cutting through the noise and getting real about where Windows Admin Center shines—and where it doesn’t. We’re opening it up, so you can see what’s actually inside, what’s coming next, and whether it fits into your environment. Expect practical insight, honest takes, and yes… a few live demos along the way.

What We’ll Unpack:

• What is it? A clear breakdown of what Windows Admin Center actually is (and isn’t).
• What can it do? The everyday tasks it handles best—servers, clusters, updates, and more—all in one place.
• What can’t it do? Where it falls short—and what you’ll still need other tools for.
• Where it’s best used? The environments where it really delivers value (and where it doesn’t).
• What’s coming next? A quick look at what’s on the horizon and worth watching.
• Live demos with Q&A – Real-time demos, plus answers to your questions as we go.

Why You Should Attend:

• Connect with people who are in the same boat. Talk shop, swap ideas, and hear how others are approaching similar challenges.
• Pick up small things that make a big difference. The kind of tips, shortcuts, and perspectives you don’t always get from docs or videos.
• Get out of your day-to-day for a bit (plus, lunch is on us). Step back, reset, and come back with a fresh perspective on how you’re managing things.
• Come curious, leave more confident. Even if you’re unsure going in, you’ll walk out with a clearer direction.

If you’re looking to simplify how you manage your environment, this is a great place to start—we’ll help you unpack what really delivers value.
