Microsoft 365 Business Reviews

Microsoft 365 Business works as a productivity tool. We use it for communication, emails, and scheduling meetings. It is mainly used for call collaboration and document management via SharePoint. It is a central system to manage documents.

The software's most valuable feature is integrating different Microsoft products, including email, Teams, Calendar, and the newly launched Copilot.

The platform's security aspect needs improvement. They should include an inbuilt security feature.

We have been using Microsoft 365 Business for almost a year. At present, we are using the latest version.

The product is stable. We haven't encountered any system downtime.

We have 200 Microsoft 365 Business users in our organization. It is easy to scale up to 150 users. We don't need to worry about infrastructure and resources. It is all handled by the cloud.

The initial setup process is easy and fully web-based. We have to log in, create an account, and consume the services. They have technical documentation in case of any difficulties. We can refer to the manual to manage the product.

I rate Microsoft 365 Business an eight out of ten.

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for document functions, and finance-related tasks, and Excel for calculations and accounting purposes. Additionally, PowerPoint comes into play for creating presentations.

It has helped us to work collaboratively. We can now connect a user to work with us and share functions like a team. For example, users can share data, conduct meetings online or communicate with the other company. The environment is really beneficial. 

The software can be used on any device or any form which is a really big benefit. Changing to Microsoft 365 Business was really important. The products work really well on stand-alone systems. We share our issues with the Microsoft team and they really help us. The team and work culture have the required experience to cater to all our needs. 

They can improve their training materials. Sometimes, seniors are busy, so Microsoft should build training materials in local languages and add more features based on them so that there is a better understanding of functions and features. 

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for three years.

I would rate the solution’s stability a nine out of ten. 

I would rate the scalability of the solution a nine out of ten. 

The customer support is good. 

We have always used Microsoft 365 Business and never opted for any other solution.

The initial setup is straightforward. Normally, we as a team deploy the solution on the customer’s system. The deployment depends on the speed of the Internet connectivity.

Just one person is required for the deployment. Two people are required for the maintenance. The deployment involves downloading the package from the cloud, installing it on the system, and is followed by the completion of setup. I would rate the setup a nine out of ten. 

I think it is a good solution, however, it requires an understanding of function materials. We use Microsoft almost every day with almost 130 users and in case we have more employees, we are looking to increase the usage. I would rate this product an eight out of ten overall.

We use the program for Excel, PowerPoint, Word, etc.

Stability-wise, the program could be improved.

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for five years. I am using the latest version.

I rate the software’s stability an eight out of ten. Sometimes, I have to restart the PC.

Microsoft 365’s scalability depends on the subscription plans. It might cost around R300 per month.

The initial setup is straightforward. Its installation part is easy and takes around 40 minutes to complete. If you use Microsoft Office 2016, deinstall it entirely before installing the software. It is essential to have backups of its previous versions on your system.

The program is inexpensive. The license allows five users to access it at the same time.

It is an excellent and powerful program. Customers are upgrading the old Microsoft Office packages to 365 as it is the future. I rate it a ten out of ten.

I'm a basic user, using it primarily to send and receive emails. That's the extent of my usage, nothing more in-depth.

I'm satisfied with how they handle data, and the people there are very friendly.   

It could be more reasonably priced. It should be more affordable.

The product integrates well with Windows and Microsoft solutions.

Group and membership administration in Teams is confusing. It could be improved. The configuration could be faster.

We use the solution for AD and user management.

I rate the tool’s stability a nine out of ten. The permission management feature doesn't seem to work as we think it would, especially when external teams are involved. It is complicated.

I have no complaints about the scalability of the product. Around 300 people are using the product in our organization. We might increase the usage gradually as the company grows.

I am not super happy with the technical support. I rate the support a six or seven out of ten.

Neutral

The setup is okay.

The features offered by the tool are worth the money.

The solution is moderately priced for what it offers.

I recommend the product to others. User permissions and administration take a little bit of time, especially if we have external parties who also need to access our AD and the resources inside. It needs a bit of digging around. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We have been using Microsoft 365 Business for four or five years.

I rate the platform’s stability an eight or nine out of ten.

We have more than 200 Microsoft 365 Business users in our organization. It is a scalable product. We plan to increase the number of licenses. However, it will be expensive.

The initial setup process takes less than a day to complete. It requires one executive to work on it.

We have a technical team and a consultant to assist with product implementation.

Microsoft 365 Business generates a return on investment for us.

I recommend Microsoft 365 Business and rate it an eight out of ten. Its user interface works fine.

I  use it for Microsoft Excel, which helps with data analysis. It integrates Power BI, allowing us to perform various slicing and dicing of data.

Mostly, I have only used Microsoft 365 Business for emails and PowerPoints as of now.

The solution includes most of the things we need. We can use it to integrate other source systems as well, like Power BI.

It's helpful to even use it to build queries, like Microsoft queries. We can write SQL queries by joining two tables present in Excel itself. So, it's like having two tables in separate sheets, and we can build a query using a common column as a join condition. We can see the key dataset with common columns using the join condition. 

Moreover, we can also perform outer joins, making Microsoft 365 Business ideal for data analysis as well.

In future releases, I would like to see more integration options. 

I've been using it for the past around one year. We currently use the latest version.

It is a scalable solution. There are over 10,000 end-users in our organization. It is extensively used in our organization. We do have plans to increase the usage.

For example, I primarily use Excel in Microsoft 365 Business. So, we have options like Excel options; we have add-ins. So under the data tab, we have a data streamer, and we also have Microsoft Power Query for Excel. So using these, we can include the data-related menu bar in Excel software.

The setup is straightforward. We have Excel, and we can use it as it is. It might need an add-in to be included.

We need maintenance primarily for data analysis. We use it to analyze the data, especially when we have a large dataset that we want to segregate and analyze specifically for a particular functionality. In such cases, we can use Excel for slicing and dicing the data. It allows us to focus on a specific chunk of data to make informed decisions.

The deployment was done by our in-house team. It's a direct tool like Microsoft Excel, but there is an add-in that can be used to integrate with other source systems. It may extend the functionality.

We don't have a separate deployment process. Excel is a file that we have as part of Microsoft Office. It's a direct use, but we might need to include an add-in to display or the data-related menu in the Excel menu bar.

There would be licensing costs because Microsoft 365 Business requires a product key and a license to be present in order to use its products, including Excel and other supportive products.

I would suggest you to start using Excel as a basic step because Excel has its own formulas and functions. They can begin with lookups in Excel and then subsequently move ahead with building queries. 

If a person has only Excel to work with, they can start with that. But they would need to have Microsoft 365 Business to proceed further with other features.

Based on the Excel work that I have done using Excel, which is a part of Microsoft 365. So, for Excel, I would rate it eight out of ten.

Therefore, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. 

We use Microsoft 365 Business for emails in Outlook.

Having everything in one platform, that is integrated, helps us to save time. We have better Communication and Collaboration.

Managing the complete mailbox, the email thread. The features such as meetings connected with Microsoft Teams and the integration is fabulous.

It works perfectly.

The dashboard is an area of improvement. It is needed for the summary of the device. Telling how many emails you have, and what needs to be responded to. 

AI-based intelligence should be more intuitive. For example, in Google, you can schedule a meeting and Google will ask you if it should schedule a meeting based on your email. It will tell you the times that are available. 

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for one year.

Microsoft 365 Business is a stable product. We have not experienced any issues with bugs or glitches.

It's a scalable product. My organization has 20,000 people who are using it.

We have not contacted technical support.

Previously, we used G-Suite, Google, and Gmail but we find that Microsoft is better.

The initial setup is quite easy for me, but it was done through my team.

I am not aware of the pricing.

We are currently evaluating MDM software for implementation in our company.

We are looking for a new product. We are doing comparisons and analyzing different products.

I would rate Microsoft 365 Business an eight out of ten.
