Microsoft 365 Business Reviews

Everyone in my organization is using Microsoft 365 Business suite. We use Excel for lots of different functionalities, such as reporting. Teams, we utilize for meetings and collaboration, and to share documents within different individualized groups. Additionally, we use Word and PowerPoint.

Microsoft 365 Business is the standard requirement amongst organizations to have these tools in order to allow their employees to work efficiently.

The most valuable features I have found with Microsoft 365 Business are the functionality and the ability to utilize Excel to put together an in-depth analysis that could be shared.

The Microsoft 365 Business suite could improve by adding additional template-type tools. For example, if you specifically are creating a fillable form, there are times where I did not find the right type of template that I was looking for. 

In an upcoming release, they should add more user-friendly formatting-type tools within Word and Powerpoint. PowerPoint does a pretty good job of identifying spacing requirements and formatting, whereas Word does not do quite as well.

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for approximately five years.

The solution is stable.

Microsoft 365 Business is highly scalable.

The technical support from Microsoft has most of the time been good, they provide resources, support on the web, and have an overall beneficial support system.

I rate Microsoft 365 Business an eight out of ten.

Our primary use case is for collaboration and integration communication. We use extended pipeline, SharePoint and emailing. It's really all about the connectivity of communication, sharing documents and things like that. We are customers of Microsoft. 

The most valuable features of the product are the interoperability and ease of integration. I appreciate that there is a lot of documentation available for this solution. 

This product could be improved by adding certain drawing tool capabilities. It still uses the  Visio drawing tool which is not that great, and it's time for an upgrade. The drawing tool should be more collaborative to work across teams. 

I also think overall stability of MS products could be improved.

I've been using this solution for two years. 

I don't see any issues with scalability, it's very good. 

The initial setup is quite straightforward. 

Microsoft does not come cheap, but I don't have anything to compare it to and it's a good product.

It's preferable to use the version that has the premium features, the advanced features, because they really have the punch in terms of capabilities. 

I rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

It primarily allows us to run our organization. We use applications on is, such as Outlook, Word, and Excel.

The performance is good.

The solution is stable.

The product is pretty scalable.

We have a lot of documents, et cetera, on the solution and wouldn't want to change to another product.

The pricing and licensing format could be improved. 

While we've used Microsoft for a while, we started using the solution for about two or so years at this point. It hasn't been that long.

The performance is good. It's stable. There aren't any bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze.

We use the solution for all of our employees. We have around 1500 right now on the product.

We do plan to increase usage in the future.

It can scale. If a company wants to expand it, it can do so.

While we haven't used the technical support specifically for this product, it's my understanding that it's the same as any Microsoft product in terms of quality and accessibility.

We have used the solution for so long, we aren't even considering looking at another solution.

The initial setup isn't overly difficult. The first time you do it, it's so so. However, a company shouldn't have too much trouble with the setup process. 

We've gotten used to the pricing. 

We pay for the license by the user. However, it's not just the licenses we have to pay for.

We're using the latest version of the solution so far. I can't speak to the exact version number.

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

I'd recommend the solution to other users and companies.

We use this solution primarily for email communication. We also use it to write documentation.

Being linked with Microsoft 365 it's very helpful.

The user interface is good and it is very easy to use.

As it is a cloud-based deployment, we don't need to have any particular application on the computer, and we don't need to download it. This means that our data and our computers are safe.

All of our work is stored on the cloud and it's easily shareable. This makes teamwork and collaboration very quick and easy.

The security is good, which is why many organizations are using it.

The integration with other platforms could be improved.

This is a stable solution.

This is a scalable product that is used across the organization. We have almost 1,000 users.

We contact our internal support team for help, rather than speak with Microsoft directly.

We have an in-house team that supports it.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

I use this solution for sharing data, and data backup.

The data backup is very good. I can use it to access my data from wherever I want, which is a very good feature.

It's easy to share.

It should be more secure.

I have been using Microsoft 365 Business for a couple of years.

We are using the latest version.

It's a stable solution.

It's a scalable product. We have 300 users in our organization and we plan to continue using it.

We have not contacted technical support. We have not had any issues.

The initials setup was straightforward. It's easy to install.

I have no issues with the pricing and licensing is on a yearly basis.

I have no problem recommending this solution.

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

We use Teams for organizing projects. We also use it for conference calls and integration with OneDrive and SharePoint, etc. As we also have an account in Dropbox for file sharing, we're duplicating costs. For this reason, we'll probably abandon Dropbox and convert everything to OneDrive and SharePoint. It must be SharePoint because it is above one data byte. We have to make the structure in SharePoint and migrate it. In short, we use it for file sharing, project management, emailing, meetings, and so on.

There are eight people in our company who use this solution — we have eight licenses. The technical team consists of just me for the time being. 

We plan to expand our use of this solution — we are contracting people. Within one or two years, we will probably double the number of licenses we have. 

It's integrated and the file version control is quite good. Integrating products and the overall communication between all functionalities is superb. As it's part of Excel, Word, and Outlook, it's quite easy for everyone to catch up.

I have been using this solution for more than five years. 

Microsoft 365 Business is stable. 

I've used a lot of products, including OpenOffice and other products for macOS applications. 

I find that Microsoft is more integrated. That's why it's easier to use Microsoft instead of the other ones.

The initial installation is quite simple. It's probably one of the most simple installations I've encountered. The overall setup took roughly two hours. 

I installed this solution by myself.

The pricing model could be improved. Microsoft is always splitting the pricing for a lot of add-ons — it's complex to manage. Still, the licenses are available for a fair price.

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

We are building the WorkPoint 365 solution on top of Microsoft 365. It is being used for managing all unstructured information; document management, project management, contract management, HR, quality management and any other business solution in need of document or case management. We fully integrate the solution to Teams, Outlook, Office, the Power Platform, Power BI and other business applications, incl. ERP.

It has made all unstructured information available anywhere, anytime. With the WOrkPoint 365 solution we have full integration between Microsoft 365 components like Teams, Power Platform, etc. 

From our side, the solution's most valuable aspect is the integration to the different tools around it now - such as Power BI, Teams and Power Platform and all the other products that become a total integrated solution when you're working with WorkPoint 365.

The solution is fast and performing well. 

Both on the usability side and integration side and especially around AI with Microsoft's new product VIVA, the solution is very interesting.

The initial setup is pretty simple.

The solution is improved now by adding still more AI based features, and that will of very interesting to follow. Integrating to Microsoft's new VIVA products enables fantastic new features.   

We've been using the solution since the very beginning. It's been since around 2004 at this point. It's been as much as 15 years or so.

The solution is stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's good overall.

We have tools to overcome any scalability issues and the solution is in use with 1000's of users. We have a long experience with providing solutions in this space and we see customers running mission-critical solutions that have thousands of users. We have found a way around scalability issues, for us, scalability isn't a problem.

No. 

The initial setup is not overly complex. It's very easy to use for users. There's of course some consideration to think about from an IT perspective and from an architecture and governance angle, but the WOrkPoint 365 solution enables good governance. 

In general, however, a company shouldn't have any issues with the implementation.

Support is available. 

Many SIs have skills. 

We save significant time and cost and improve quality and capacity. Th fact that all information lige documents, mails, chats drawings, etc. is available in one place is invaluable for the business.  

It's competitively priced compered to what you get. 

Several other technologies was evaluated. 

We are a Microsoft Gold partner.

While we deploy to the cloud, we do have clients that use the on-premises deployment model.

Our company provides functions on top of Microsoft 365. That means that we obviously fill some gaps and we have developed specific solutions for document management and cache management and project management and stuff like that. We are adding functions to Office 365 and Microsoft 365 with WorkPoint 365.

I'd advise that other organizations should think of it as a platform. It's a platform where you can actually start in one place and develop in so many other areas with WorkPoint 365. 

Students use it mostly for sending emails, storing their documents, and collaborating.

Office products such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint are strong points of this solution.

Microsoft Teams can be improved. It is a bit taxing on resources and is resource-heavy on the devices. When you install it on a PC, it uses a lot of memory.

They should look for a better price model for educational institutions, and it should be free. We are also using Google Suite, which is free for educational institutions. They charge business people, not nonprofit institutions.

I have been using this solution for some time.

It is stable.

It is scalable. We have around 2,000 users, and we want to increase the usage.

We get support from Microsoft through their local dealers. Their support is fine.

We are also using Google Suite. Microsoft 365 has a price attached, whereas Google Suite is free for educational institutions. Microsoft 365 has got popular applications like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, whereas Google Suite has got similar products that do the same thing, but they are not very popular.

It was straightforward.

I installed it myself.

They are always a bit pricey. They should reduce their prices or make it free because we already have other solutions, like Google Suite, which are cheaper or free.

If you can afford it, then go for it. It is a good product.

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