I don’t get why people still use Microsoft services. How many data privacy scandals do we need, so they understand? Or do they still not care?
Because my line of work means I working corporations, and they ALWAYS run everything on the big names, Microsoft and Oracle.
At home, I have choice. At work, I must swallow.
If you’re working with clients that requires you to have security certifications it can be a real pain in the ass to certify your setup for everything vs just using the 365 stack.
And at work I don’t really care. It’s not my data they are “looking” at. It’s my employers.
I guess they won’t lose any corporate customers over this. The pure shit that it outlooks hasn’t scared anyone away yet.
I tried to delete ~7k emails today. I had to kill the process since it stopped responding. Wtf?
It’s honestly pretty expensive compared to the alternatives. If you compare a business setup with windows plus office etc plus the support fee you can get all of that for free plus a much lower support fee from a variety of independent companies with Linux and libreoffice. The typical office worker really doesn’t need the few corner cases where MS office maybe has an advantage. Honestly for a business I would even go with Google tools. Same data privacy issues, but at least the product works great. MS office in the cloud is hot garbage.
Even with search engines you can basically choose the Google index, the Microsoft index or the Amazon index
