"Another brilliant Microsoft product" Posted 2021-05-26
Pros: -provides word, excel, powerpoint online with advanced capabilities
-provides a number of additional tools with it (forms, automate, etc.)
-proven to be stable, fast and reliable (even when having to reconnect)Cons: -no effective pay-once option
-enforces everything online dependency (would be great to have fully functional offline capability!)Overall: Office 365 is brilliant. It provides all the office capabilities online in a way that one could work completely online. With the additional tools available (either in the base subscription or through higher level subscription), it advances into a very capable collaboration platform. However, while everything is now online - it also creates a dependency, specially with outages that happen infrequently.

"Good but could be better" Posted 2021-05-24
Pros: It's great that 365 has every application that an organization could need, from file creation programs such as word and excel, storage options like sharepoint, collaboration tools (teams) and email (outlook). Microsoft has a near monopoly on many of these applications, so it's no surprise that most users will have some degree of experience with them. Excel specifically is an incredibly robust tool that makes SO many aspects of data management simpler when used well.
Cons: Likely because Microsoft had such little competition for so long, there are a lot of clunky aspects to the programs and especially to the way the programs interact with each other. I've been both a mac and PC users over the years, and while some things are definitely more awkward on a mac, the bulk of my complaints are true on PC as well.
The interface of Teams is SO awkward and not particularly intuitive. Sharepoint is probably great but no one in my organization seems to know how to use it (or even really understand that it exists) so it is not well utilized. As much as I like excel, you can literally take entire classes in the program to understand what it can do. There are number of other applications available through 365 that I've never even really heard of. I am sure they would be useful, but Microsoft doesn't seem to make onboarding users to these systems a priority. They sell licenses to 365 either way, so they have no incentive to improve in these regards.
Similarly, Microsoft invests very little in improving the user experience, especially when compared to smaller, new organizations. As far as I am aware, Microsoft doesn't really offer much in the way of user support. On platforms such as our DAM (Widen) or data collaboration tool (Airtable), there are rich support centers and easy ways to contact their staff with questions. Microsoft does not provide these features despite the fact that they have SO many programs. While they certainly have a large help database, I find it extremely dated and more challenging to navigate. Perhaps it's unfair to compare Microsoft to these relative start ups, as it is an absolute behemoth with millions of users around the world. In most cases you can probably resolve issues by searching the internet. But I still find myself missing the well curated support portals crafted by these smaller service providers.Overall: Microsoft is familiar to nearly everyone who has used a computer. They have an application for everything, and it would certainly be difficult to run a business without using at least some of their tools. But because it is a business that is already so dominantly successful, there is no real reason for them to focus on optimizing the user experience. They only need to do enough to stay on top.

"Office 365 offers yearly accessibility to a great suite" Posted 2021-03-26
Pros: The tools that Office 365 puts at our fingertips make working with any document format simple to achieve. Office 365 interconnects many services we already know from Microsoft's office suite, so creating a document in one of these programs and sharing it directly to another is possible. Office 365 seems to us a reasonable option to adapt documents from previous versions of Microsoft office software, getting them upgraded to the latest generation of software. We recommend a good review of the integrations that can be achieved in this suite, to better understand the dynamics that can be executed when working with documents.
Cons: Office 365 only offers us one hour of minutes to our Skype account, which is very little considering that we pay $ 10.50 per month for each employee we add to our management. There is not a good reciprocity between office 365 and services like google spreadsheets, which require internet to be updated.
Overall: Office 365 is one of the most popular office suites in the world, and we decided to use it based on that. Fortunately for us, the network platform met the expectations of the organization in terms of interconnecting different services into one, and we will continue to use it to work with documents.

"Office 365 shows us an orderly and balanced point of view" Posted 2021-03-21
Pros: In theory this suite of programs is essential for any business. They have kept us in line since day one as the updates it presents are easy and fast. The licensing is much easier to customize and this gives us features that Office 365 does not normally show us. It has fully programmed back-end management.
Cons: We need a learning curve to scale to work in the cloud, although the tools are almost the same it is necessary to cover a mini course for its use. They could improve the online products and add to work in a better way in offline mode because if the connection drops most likely we lose all the process achieved.
Overall: Office 365 almost runs itself with how easy it is to manage. With the integration of our mail within Office 365 everything became easy for us to use, it's amazing how well we work with this toolset. We implemented Office 365 on our basic computers for the actual handling of email and it's a marvel. Everything has been handled more smoothly and almost nothing is complex now that Office 365 is with us along the way.

"Microsoft Office 365 as an outlook for using any report or program " Posted 2021-03-21
Pros: We have quickly and reliably obtained an integration of all Microsoft Office 365 tools to be able to use it without any problem in our platform, in order to develop every project, every report, every ticket, that may be presented to us in our department. Microsoft Office 365 has always been accessible to all our employees, its web version has allowed us to share files without the use of any external application or software. Despite its simplicity, it has facilitated our work in a reliable, secure and fast way.
Cons: One of the main disadvantages of Microsoft Office 365 is that it shows us too many tools that over time we do not get to use, they should only implement the most used options and make the program more bearable and lighter at the time of installation. Sometimes some programs lack automatic conversion capabilities and we have to drill down through a large menu of options to choose the one we need.
Overall: Microsoft Office 365 generated productivity and immediately we were able to implement online spreadsheets for the analysis of each case. We also ensured that each person has access to your file in a private and secure way, as well as we make sure that the client does not see it without our authorization to avoid any kind of inconvenience at the time of final delivery. Microsoft Office 365 works wonders on any computer, virtually all our employees use these tools for both internal and external communication. Office 365 is clearly today the market leader in terms of its use, price, speed and everything they offer us. The highest recommendation point is generated by the fact that the learning curve is feasible for anyone.
