Comprehensive cloud tools have unified identity security and device management for my clients
I would suggest a lower cost for my clients because Microsoft 365 has many other licenses that provide different types of features. Microsoft 365 Business covers most of their requirements, and for the other parts, they use other third-party tools for cybersecurity. Although Microsoft 365 Business offers some cybersecurity features, it does not offer everything, such as endpoint detection response and mitigation. For those, clients need to buy a higher version of a license, such as Enterprise E1 or E5. I think Microsoft 365 Business can be improved if it adds more features such as endpoint detection or more features from Microsoft Defender, including cloud app security. With cloud app security, the application status or application logs can be monitored. Currently, cloud app security is not part of Microsoft 365 Business. You have to purchase a standalone license for that. If that can be added, it can increase the volume of purchases for Microsoft 365 Business.

Pros

"We use Huddle to store important team files, and with a dispersed team, we set permissions on files that are relevant to each team, helping us keep files up to date and streamline projects."
"Overall, I am very satisfied with this product and I recommend it to others."
"It is easy to use and user-friendly. Its performance is also good."
"Microsoft 365 Business is a really good product. Microsoft provides many solutions like Microsoft Teams, which is useful for Team utilization across the globe, especially in this COVID 19 kind of scenario. If you enable the enhanced security in Microsoft Teams by using the given options, you can eliminate the third-party solutions like WhatsApp, Telegram. You can easily share your communication, which is much better. You can also collaborate. For example, instead of creating an Excel sheet on your local PC and sending it across to someone over email, you can just share it. SharePoint is one of the best tools to be implemented."
"The performance is good."
"The solution can scale up or down easily to meet the needs of any organization."
"I have been using Microsoft Office for a long time since I was young. This solution is very similar and is easy to use, and the interface is adequate."
"When trying to compare other products there are not a lot of product that can even compare with the functionality."
"It's very user-friendly."
 

Cons

"I think the navigation from project to project could be improved, but other than that, nothing I would add."
"Microsoft Teams can be improved. It is a bit taxing on resources and is resource-heavy on the devices. When you install it on a PC, it uses a lot of memory. They should look for a better price model for educational institutions, and it should be free. We are also using Google Suite, which is free for educational institutions. They charge business people, not nonprofit institutions."
"One of my pet peeves would probably be that as you get over 15 megs in communication between your clients, it does tend to bottleneck a little bit."
"Windows should be included with the solution since Microsoft is heading towards an SaaS-, cloud-based model."
"The problem with the technical support is the language. Most of them are from India and I have difficulties understanding their English."
"The pricing model could be improved."
"The price is an area that needs improvement."
"The price is high. It should be lower."
"The licensing price could be better."

"There is an annual license to use this solution."
"Now you can select different licenses, for example, if somebody doesn't need all of the features, it would cost $8 USD per month and if they didn't need the email application then it would cost $6 USD per month."
