![]() Some of the support tasks I will not miss when
we move businesses from Microsoft on premises services to Office 365. 1.
Worrying if the 7 year old server will make it through the night ![]() 6. (Southern California) Worrying that wild fires or prolonged electricity outages will take down my business communications. 7. (SMB IT provider related) Explaining why I need to spend an hour of billable time updating the email server every month. 8. (SMB to Enterprise) No more overbuying servers for potential future growth. Customer pays for what they need when they need it. ![]() 9. No more IP blacklist problems due to users getting malware, viruses or misconfigured DNS. ![]() 10. Explaining Microsoft licensing and the difference between Open Value, Open Value Subscription, Open Business, SPLA, blah, blah, blah to someone who doesn't really care yet again... ![]() 11. Listening to highly paid IT pros talk about
'freeing up disk space' on Exchange server each week or having to setup low
email quotas for each user (like < 1 GB). ![]() Its one of the worst things about my profession; management
of exchange servers just doesn't happen with any sort of user focus. Suggesting
to people that 500mb mailboxes are adequate these days is just laughable. Agree
with all of the above points, it makes the whole email provision 'simpler'
and cost effective. 12) not having to deal with the dated webmail interface of exchange 2010. 13) being able to script everything with Powershell and gaining a significant performance increase as a result. ![]() 14. No more
building of HA Infrastructures for 20 mailboxes ![]() 15. Free upgrade
when there's a new product release instead of buying a new version. 16. Saving thousands in financial terms on meetings we'd have to travel to that can be done using Lync... ![]() It may take an hour to receive your first email due to replication of DNS changes, service is still provisioning What is included with your 30 day trial?
