Microsoft 365 Business Reviews

We use the product as it was selected by our client for their environment. You can implement organizational compliance policies and make your devices secure. Companies can keep track of devices and users over the internet itself. The product is cloud-based. Therefore, you do not need a dedicated IT system and hardware.

I am impressed with the MDM feature.

The solution has a lot of areas to be improved. The tool needs to improve its background synchronization of data between the platforms. It can facilitate better decision-making and analysis of data. The tool should also make improvements to responsive mechanisms which can eliminate any bottlenecks.

I have been working with the solution for four to five years.

The solution is stable.

If you use the user portal, then you need to have some credits. On the other hand, if you have a license, then support is free. The support responds on time.

Neutral

The solution’s deployment takes two to three months to complete.

We have seen ROI with the tool’s use. The solution removes the burden of decision-making of compliance policy management.

The tool’s licensing and pricing are interconnected. There are different levels of licensing.

I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. The solution does not require any maintenance from our end since it is deployed over the cloud. Before choosing this solution, you need to get the gist of it. If you do so, then it will not take long for you to onboard.

Mainly, we are using 365 Business for enterprise automation, which we are currently doing for one of our clients.

The best thing about 365 Business is its availability.

We have OneNote, where you type something, and it's saved automatically, so if Microsoft could add that option in 365, it would help us avoid potential data loss.

I've been using 365 Business for more than 10 years now.

365 Business is stable. 

Microsoft 365 Business is scalable. Almost everyone in my company uses it, so that's thousands of people.

I can't comment on the price because my organization handles the license, but I think I'm happy with whatever it is. I think an annual license should be suitable. A monthly license also works because it's good to have the option to stop subscribing after three months.

I rate Microsoft 365 Business eight out of 10. I would recommend it.

It is easy to use.

The stability could be improved.

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for approximately one year.

We are using the latest version.

Overall, Microsoft 365 Business is a stable product. It will occasionally hang, but this is extremely rare. It is also possible that it is a hardware issue.

Scalability is an area I have yet to explore.

This solution is used by thousands of people in our organization.

I have not contacted technical support. If I run into any issues, I contact our technical team

We are also using Lotus Notes, Gmail, and Windows 10 is our operating system.

We have been using Windows 10 for approximately six years. We use it to run our personal applications.

When I have any issues, I just have my tech team look at my laptop.

I would rate Windows 10 a seven out of ten.

I was not a part of the installation.

We had a technical team help and install it.

I don't pay any licensing fees.

I would recommend this solution to others who are interested in using it.

I would rate Microsoft 365 Business a seven out of ten.

As the solution is cloud-based, we have always been using the latest version. 

I use the solution for everything. It is convenient. There is no need to save my work, as it is always in the cloud. 

The solution is easy to use and scalable. It is stable and we have had no issues with the performance. 

The solution could have better email automation. 

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for two years. 

We have encountered no issues with the stability. 

The solution is scalable. 

I have not had occasion to make use of tech support. 

I do not recall if we used a different solution prior to Microsoft 365 Business. 

As I was not involved in the installation, I cannot comment on it. 

My previous organization consisted of a small company, with fewer than 100 users. 

I would recommend the solution to others. It's a great tool. 

I rate Microsoft 365 Business as a nine out of ten. 

We are using this solution for many of its features, such as Excel, PowerPoint, and Teams.

Microsoft 365 Business is easy to use and user-friendly. 

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for approximately one year.

The solution is overall stable. However, while using Teams there can be some performance issues during meetings.

The solution is scalable.

We have approximately 50 users using this solution in my organization.

We have not needed to use the technical support for Microsoft 365 Business.

The installation is easy. Everything is on the cloud, you download the solution and install it.

We did the implementation ourselves.

There is an annual license required for this solution. For a smaller organization, it could be expensive.

I rate Microsoft 365 Business an eight out of ten.

The features that I like best with Microsoft 365 Business are that the files are available offline. When I start Confluence, when I'm on the go, let's say on the plane, I can still modify my files and then when I get to coverage they are synchronized with the cloud. That makes it really strong. Then of course there is the Office support. You need to buy Office products anyway these days and it's actually coming in a bundle.

In terms of what could be improved, they are continuously developing it, but sometimes not necessarily in a good direction. There are changes happening every three months so you actually have to learn some tools again. I'll give you an example. Teams used to be really good and now, I have a feeling that they hired developers from Skype Business because it's actually not very good.

The same with some other tools which are actually being developed, then all of a sudden they are not as good. For example, OneNote. OneNote is a really good tool or used to be a good tool, but now nowadays, it is a bit like Confluence and other corporate tools. I cannot tag anybody. If I make a note in OneNote, I have to send them an email with the link otherwise nobody will actually check it.

There is room for improvement.

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for about six years.

It is license-based. You can buy one license and you can buy 10 licenses and it still works very well, even if there is a new colleague coming on.

It literally takes 10 minutes to get a new license.

The initial setup is really easy.

The whole architecture is really simple. Since 365 offers these AD login, the globalized login, setting up Windows and Office 365 takes about half an hour. 

I'm actually using a Mac book now for the last two or three months, and that is not complicated either.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Microsoft 365 Business somewhere between seven or eight. Let's put it at an eight.

I would recommend Microsoft 365 Business. I would tell people that when they first set it up, I mean the very initial set up, not for the laptop but for the company's set up, they should be clever when choosing the name of the company inside the ecosystem because it seems that when our IT guys chose the name they made a mistake. After the company name they put the company's address, the previous address, and now it stays there forever. So the main SharePoint or the main link to the company's website, still has the company's old address in its name. That's actually stupid, but otherwise I would recommend it.

We mainly use this solution for video conferencing on Microsoft Teams. We also use SharePoint quite a bit — for email. 

Within our organization, there are roughly 1,350 employees using this solution. Currently, we have a team of four technical engineers that take care of all maintenance-related issues. 

I appreciate the mobility of this solution. We started using it due to the pandemic. Once COVID-19 hit, we began working from home. 

I suppose it could be more secure; every solution could be more secure.

We just migrated over to Microsoft 365 Business last year. 

This solution is very scalable. 

We are very satisfied with the technical support. 

The installation was very straightforward. All that was required was a one-time installation. It took roughly one month to get everyone up and running.

We installed this solution on our own, although, Microsoft technical support helped. 

The licenses could be cheaper. Right now, we're on a yearly subscription. 

I would absolutely recommend this solution to others. Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give it a rating of nine. 

We are using the solution mainly for Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive. Additionally, we use Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

I think the flexibility of Teams very good.

There should be less power consumption of the PC resources while using this solution. We have professional systems and Teams can run slow at times. We also need to restart Teams in the middle of the meetings sometimes, this could improve in a future release.

I have been using the solution for three years.

The solution could be more stable.

The solution is easy to scale. We have 15 people using the solution in our company and it is very easy to increase the number of licenses and users.

The installation was very easy. The longest period of the installation was the migration of emails. The rest of the application can be deployed within two days.

We did the implementation ourselves. We have 10 technical engineers that can deploy and do maintenance of the solution.

There is a license for this solution and it is priced based on the users using it.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Microsoft 365 Business an eight out of ten.
