I've laid the costs out side by side for customers who have run on-prem, including admin costs, and almost none have chosen 365. I know some organizations have struggled with Exchange reliability, but I've worked in the managed services and consulting space and the vast majority of on-prem installs I've worked with have been extremely reliable and problems have usually been the result of some really bad admin decisions. The office and Exchange licensing for on-prem isn't $525,000.

Most companies of any size have virtualization which almost always means that running Exchange amounts to software licensing and a fairly thin amount of admin time.ДЄ single Exchange server should scale to 500 users pretty easily - at $35 month, you're making a $175,000 commitment or $525,000 over 3 years. I'm curious how big companies justify anything over $5 a month. If you are paying someone +$75,000 a year he or she should be a master at that price and have years of experi If your admin can't handle scripting and commands then he is incompetent. Now MS has powershell and it is BEH WHERE IS THE GUI?! Exchange is a very complex project because many organizations have complex uses. Hey look at Unix we do not have to sit in front of the server to admin it etc. You bashed WIndows NT and then called Windows Server for years for not having a CLI. The marginal cost of a 5-9s commercial data center for hosting cloud services is greater than the marginal savings to users, which is why hosted systems always end up being so expensive unless you're doing something really trivial like a static web site. They will ultimately either price on prem high enough that only a few compliance/security focused large organizations will consider it or support hybrid only (meaning you're paying for O365, used or not).Д¬loud is about permanent vendor-lock in and rent-seeking, not economics. Since 2013, Exchange has lost much of its GUI which I think has been a way to scare on-prem admins away. It's pretty obvious Microsoft is heading subscription-only for everything.

If you time the upgrade right, you can probably get 5 years out of it without falling more than a rev behind and cut the 50 user number way down. AV and anti-spam are almost always done best these days by a third party service and the good ones do both anyway.ДЇrom the numbers I've run, it usually is cheaper to do it on prem above about 50 users with a 3 year benchmark. The marginal cost of backup and DR when you're *already* doing those things for an on-prem server environment is pretty close to zero, and if you're already virtualized and have a virtual-oriented backup software you probably already have DR integrated into your backup. However.backup, anti-virus, spam filtering, and a DR solution drives up the cost very quickly. We are trying to strike the right balance between agile, ship-when-ready updates and enterprise needs of predictability, reliability and advanced notice to validate and prepare.'

In a follow-up comment, Microsoft's Alistair Speirs explained that 'There is still an option to get monthly desktop updates, but we are changing the 3x a year update channel to be 2x a year to align closer to Windows 10 update model. 'Providing over three years advance notice for this change to Office 365 system requirements for client connectivity gives you time to review your long-term desktop strategy, budget and plan for any change to your environment.' To ensure that customers are getting the most out of their Office 365 subscription, we are updating our system requirements.' And in another blog post, they're almost daring people to switch to Linux.

The IT security and reliability benefits and end user experiences in the apps is limited to the features shipped at a point in time. Microsoft is claiming that when customers connect to Office 365 services using a legacy version of Office, 'they're not enjoying all that the service has to offer.

'If you've been saving all of your Excel spreadsheets into your OneDrive for Business cloud, you'll need to download and move them over to a personal subscription - or pony up for Office 365, as Microsoft really wants you to do.'

'In a bid to further persuade users of the standalone versions of Office to shift over to a cloud subscription (Office 365), Microsoft has announced that those who made a one-off purchase of an Office product will no longer get access to the business flavours of OneDrive and Skype come the end of the decade.' PC World explains that in reality this affects very few users. Microsoft is still encouraging businesses to rent their Office software, according to TechRadar.
