Let me throw this into the ring.  Texas, along with most States have moved their agencies to MS365 /Teams.  I am fairly confident that most Federal agencies have migrated to the platform.  In Texas I was involved in the due diligence when we were looking at the options.  There is a reason Government has moved to this.  In terms of security, functionality and , very important, interoperability with our existing platforms MS365 led the pack. 

While any platform will have some issues and occasional hiccups, this is a solid platform and allows true interoperability between MS Office, Teams, MS Sharepoint (something we should be using more), shared calendaring, messaging tools and Azure database tools.  It is possible some of our issues is the lack of total adoption and only sporadic use?

My 2 cents....

Welcome to my world. Others on ODV have told me/us of issues but you may not have seen them.  Microsoft has some decent products and I have always used their Operating system – the ones that actual work well and they had/have a few.  We do not use MS 365 applications in my practice (or home) for a reason.  The HQ IT staff has done what they could to help me get set up.  My local IT contractors have suggested I get used to issues now and then with MS and they are a well-regarded MS certified shop.

I just found out that I have not been receiving some ODV email. I've not received 15 of the last 30 ODV messages, and I've not had time to go back before that date so there may be more. I never had this problem before I heard the words Microsoft 365 floating around. Be that as it may, I ain't pleased.

 

Art, I'll put in $500 for the staff appreciation bench. I just heard about it.
