Microsoft 365 Business Reviews

We are primarily using it for our office. 

We are using it for email as well. Our Outlook email is on Office 365.

We also use the other items that come with Office. It's great for task managers, schedulers, and has great document sharing software. We use Sharepoint.

Overall, it is a great product. So far, we are enjoying it.

In Office 365, the collaboration part whereby you can actually type your document on your machine, then upload or save it onto your Office 365, and share it with anyone that you want. You can actually edit it in real-time. That's one of the great strengths of Office 365.

The solution is very stable.

The solution scales well.

The product has good pricing. It's quite inexpensive.

We haven't used the solution for very long just yet. I can't say that I have come across missing features or faults in its design.

The customization after the initial setup can take a while.

The solution could always be cheaper, as we like to pay the least amount possible.

As long as the solution continues to add new features and grow out the offering, we will be very happy.

I've been using the solution for about a month or so now. It hasn't been that long. It's still quite new.

The stability has been good so far. It does not crash or freeze. There are no bugs or glitches that I have experienced. it's reliable. The performance has been quite good.

The scalability of the product is quite good. If a company needs to expand it, it can do so with relative ease. 

We have roughly 2,500 users on the solution currently.

Even though we have only used the solution for about a month or so, we have been in touch with technical support and we have found Microsoft to be helpful and responsive. We're satisfied with their level of service so far.

I didn't directly participate in the initial setup and therefore can't speak to how easy or difficult the product was to install. Microsoft handled it for the most part. We, however, did the work of customizing it on our end. For us, the customization and configuration took us a few days. It was more than a week. It took some time.

The technical team that deals directly with the product is a team of about ten or so people. 

The installation was mostly handled by Microsoft.

I'm not quite clear on the financials. I'm just too technical, and I don't work directly with billing and payments. But I think from what we have seen so far, it's been quite cheap.

Overall, I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten. It's been very capable so far, and we enjoy the real-time file sharing and editing aspects.

I'd recommend this product to other organizations and users. 

We take care of our business tasks and communications using the full office environment.  

Teams is also a part of the Office 365 suite from Microsoft that I was actually using separately from Office before we moved to the Office 365 product.  

The thing I think can be improved is the Teams functionalities. Teams software is like Zoom and it is more-or-less the same idea. It is less intuitive in comparison to what I was used to in Zoom. Zoom has a much more intuitive interface and is user-friendly in how you create meetings, how to participate, and how you invite people to join groups. You can do conference calls with many parties more easily using Zoom.  

Inside the organization where everyone else also has Teams, it is a very good tool. But if I want to have someone join that is not in my organization or using another connection method like a phone number, it is tricky. You cannot dial to regular phones which is a feature that exists in Skype for Business.  

The integration with other products is less fluid compared to Zoom and Skype for Business. Those products are more flexible and I am able to dial regular phones. Zoom is a much more flexible product and I may like it more because it is familiar.  

I have been using the complete suite for the last seven months.  

It is a mature and stable product. There are no concerns with stability.  

I have no complaints about the scalability. The entire company is using the product and we are a company with about 800 employees. Maybe some people in the production areas are not using it because it is not important to their work, but all the office people are working with this tool.  

We previously used other versions of Microsoft products. Let's say we have been using Microsoft products for the last 10 or 15 years, which is common practice for many companies. It is company policy and not something that I can influence. No one asked me my opinion. It was the organization's decision to move to 365. We are all using Microsoft tools.  

The initial setup was straightforward. We did not use an integrator, reseller, or consultant for the deployment. We have an IT team inside our company that helps us to use the tools and do installations.  

We did not need to have any very special implementation strategy. We could just install the software to start using it. There is no deployment of hardware along with the software so the implementation time is very short.  

The Microsoft Office 365 suite is a pretty nice product. It is working fine, no real complaints. It is a sophisticated product. You have to explore on YouTube how to use some tricks and tips to work with it more efficiently.  

Overall I am satisfied with Office 365. It is a very convenient and common product — so nothing special to give advice about that most people do not already know. You really do not need any tools, any skills, or any special training to start using it.  

Of course, later on, you can learn about some tips and tricks to enhance your experience and productivity. But in general, it is very nice.  

On a scale from one to ten where one is the worst and ten is the best, I would rate this product as a nine-out-of-ten.  

We use Microsoft 365 Business for features like Teams, SharePoint, etc.

The platform is well-integrated with all Microsoft products.

They could maintain the consistency of features and UI while updating the product. It is fine to release frequent updates, but there shouldn’t be drastic changes in operations.

We have been using Microsoft 365 Business for two years.

I rate the product's stability a nine out of ten. It has room for improvement.

It is a scalable platform.

The initial setup is straightforward.

They offer corporate subscriptions for the platform. We have to renew it yearly.

I rate Microsoft 365 Business an eight out of ten. I recommend it to other companies as it integrates effectively within the ecosystem. We can conveniently share the data across teams.

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.

We use Microsoft 365 Business for email, SharePoint, and OneDrive. In the Office suite, we use many of the old applications, such as Excel. We use extensively SharePoint to share files, OneDrive to take backups on regular basis, and email. 

The solution allows for easy collaboration. You are able to use, for example, Excel and go online to the cloud and save your documents offline rather than on a personal hard drive. In my organization, we promote collaboration when possible and this solution does a good job at providing this functionality. The solution is always updated and we receive the latest features. Additionally, they offer many other services we do not use very much but are available, such as Power BI.

I have been using the solution for approximately three years.

I have found the solution very stable. We have not had any issues in the three years operating any of the products.

The solution is scalable. We are using Office 365 Business in all three operations we are currently involved with.

We use the technical support from Microsoft but it was mostly related to the OneDrive. We had a couple of extensions not supported by OneDrive in the beginning, we reached out to the support and they were very quick to respond and resolve the issues. They have an account manager in the Middle East which provides us with an easy way to receive support.

We have previously used a cloud storage solution called Egnyte.

The full implementation took approximately one day and the length of time it took was due to the need for us to migrate from our on-premise Exchange server to Office 365 Business.

We used consultants for the implementation.

The solution is expensive and the price could be lowered. For example, if I want to purchase a personal Office 365 subscription, they have pricing that does not have the flexibility to choose a wide range of storage sizes, you are limited to a lower amount. If you then switch to the Business version to receive the larger storage offering it is too large and expensive. If they would allow customers to choose the storage size on-demand it would be beneficial and a big improvement.

We did not evaluate other options because we have an Exchange server and thought it would be best to use a Microsoft platform.

I would recommend this solution to others. I do not see any other comparable alternative solution as comprehensive as this one.

I rate Microsoft 365 Business a nine out of ten.

My son uses Microsoft 365 Business in his school where they do not use books, they work fully online. They are using their laptop on a daily basis where they use applications, such as Word in order to edit, submit, and share documents with the other pupils or teachers.

Office 365 is comfortable and easy to use and sometimes important to share doments with others, it is practically an standard de facto and it is a way to be sure your documents are going to be properly read.

I have been using this solution for approximately one year.

The stability is good.

I have found scalability good in this solution.

My company is quite Microsoft oriented for our laptops and commodity software. We have over 100,000 employees and many of them are using this solution but I am not sure the exact number.

I have needed to use the support for this solution.

We have a familiar subscription and you only need to share a link with the operating system you want to install it on. Anyone can download and install Microsoft 365 Business with a couple of clicks and it will be ready to use in a short period of time.

The price of the subscription for the solution could be less expensive.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Microsoft 365 Business a nine out of ten.

We are using the product primarily for all of our internal documentation and exchanges. The use cases are nothing special. It's quite basic for the most part.

The fact that it's completely on the cloud is one of its most useful aspects. We do not have to manage anything. 

We use the Office and Teams mostly. They are very helpful applications for our office.

The solution is very easy to use. It's completely transparent and extremely easy to navigate.

The stability is quite good. 

We found the installation to be very simple.

The solution offers good security and compliance.

From time to time we have some issues with OneDrive. OneDrive is not perfect. It's nice, however, from time to time we have some problems specifically with reloading the replication. We have to set it up again and again. It's not very stable.

The technical support process could be a bit more secure. The information should stay within the ticketing system itself and not be passed via email.

We've been using the solution for three years or so. We've used it for a while now.

The solution has proven to be quite stable. Its performance is good. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze on us. 

We don't really scale the solution. We're a pretty small company. We're only three users, and therefore do not need to scale at all. Therefore, I can't really speak to its capabilities. However, in the future, we are likely to expand usage.

I've only had one experience with technical support. It was not for me. It was for one of the customers. However, the experience was really, really good. 

Once it was finished, they ask for feedback. Technical support was perfect, however, the ticketing system was not that great. Once you've created a ticket, all the next steps are through email. Yet, if there is an email or something which is private, it should not be sent by email. That's why they have to improve the ticketing process. They should send a link to your ticket via email and always keep the information itself within the ticketing system.

The company is quite new. Before I was working at a bigger company which was completely different. However, when we started this new business, we decided to make it as simple as possible for us. That's why we decided to move to the cloud completely.

We also use Zoho for the cloud, for all our accounting, and invoicing, and so on. There is no Microsoft offering for that. It's completely separate. There is no link between them.

The initial setup is not difficult or overly complex. It's pretty straightforward and simple. 

The deployment is quick and only takes a few clicks. Implementation is only a few minutes. From an end-user point of view, it's even faster as it's just a click or two.

We don't need anyone to handle deployment or maintenance.

We handle the implementation ourselves. We have an IT team and we are quite capable of managing the implementation. Therefore we don't need the assistance of any integrators or consultants.

We have a license that we pay on a monthly basis.

We did not evaluate other options before choosing Microsoft.

We're just a customer and an end-user.

We are using the latest version of the solution.

We are like customers. Even if we do not sell these kinds of services, when customers ask us for advice, we recommend them to move to Microsoft. One of our business lines is in GDPR. For that, we recommend them to move to something which is completely secure. Microsoft Office 365 is one of them. We recommend customers move to Office 365 for that reason. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

We use Microsoft 365 Business for scheduling emails and meetings and for features like Excel, PowerPoint, etc.

The platform is stable and easy to use.

There could be less frequent product updates.

I rate the product's stability an eight out of ten.

The initial setup is easy for the cloud version.

We implement the product with the help of our in-house team.

I recommend Microsoft 365 Business to others and rate it a ten out of ten.
