Effortless policy management with built-in simplicity that enhances user experience
I work in kiosk delivery for my users' laptops and cellular phones It's very easy to use. It's very comfortable to work on Hexnode since its form and usage are very simple. The support is only available in English right now, which is a bit of a problem for my users since they would prefer…

Price and reliability need improvement while general tasks are streamlined
The pricing for Microsoft 365 is too high, and quality-wise, it does not meet high standards. The operating system is outdated and inadequate. Microsoft has very poor security, and Defender is ineffective. In terms of collaboration and file sharing, OneDrive is very clunky and has frequent sync issues. It also crashes a lot and is unreliable.

"The solution is very stable."
"You can access files through any device at any corner of the world."
"Everything gets integrated. Different services that they provide are well integrated into the entire system, which is the biggest strength of Microsoft products. Everything works together.

"The installation is at a moderate level of difficulty. It could be easier to install."

"The solution could have better integration with other applications."
"Attaching documents to email is a process that needs to be simplified."
"The tool should improve its interface."
"The solution's technical support team takes time to respond to users, making it an area of the tool's shortcomings where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Microsoft 365 Business could be cheaper."
"There is an annual license to use this solution."
"Microsoft 365 Business is an expensive solution."
"If you go with Microsoft, they will give you 80 GB in advance and all those kinds of features. They will also keep asking you to go from E1 to E2, E2 to E3, and now E5. Their prices are high, but as long as the organization is happy to pay and your emails are working seamlessly, it shouldn't be an issue."
"Microsoft 365 Business is inexpensive."
"We have an enterprise license."
"Its cost is fine because I have a lot of devices in my account."
