Those types of things are much more efficiently handled in the 'cloud.' Except when they have outages. Then you are in a really bad spot. Microsoft really wants to push everyone there though. I like AWS but security issues happen all the time and there really is no recourse (speaking from experience). Asia regions are the worst. In my industry, the race for internal private cloud is on. Another problem with my industry, cloud services don't support multicast networks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Internal IT networks have outages as well, and from my experience, our O365 is more reliable than my main client's internally managed email system. And MS usually knows how to fix it pretty quickly.

akirby Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 We have O365 but we still have software installed on our laptops with local storage just like older versions. That’s not the cloud version but they still call it Office 365. I do like being able to access my email and calendar without a network connection.

I wouldn't have it any other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
