SAAS (software as a service) has arrived. I'm not impressed. If anybody know anything about pricing, please post it along with a link.

Will Biden and Democrats be given snooping and, even worse, censorship privileges? Nothing is a safe from stupid bully Joe.

Not to mention that typical EULA’s for cloud services is presumed ownership of all data that has used the cloud service. So, any income you create and use Windows 365, you could fund yourself having to cut Microsoft a check of your profits.

Switched to Linux. Never going back. 365 can pound sand with their $100 per year fee.

“SAAS (software as a service) has arrived. I’m not impressed.”
It’s been here since 2015. And it works.
What’s new here is the user interface, which is any browser. And the tacit admission of MS that they cannot control the end device.
Millions will opt for this.

I like buying and owning my software. I don’t need monthly draining charges and I don’t need continuous billing hassles.

Could really be helpful with onboarding and temporary employees/contractors.

All your data storage is not stored at FBI headquarters in D.C., but on wispy cloud, floating safely and securely way up in the atmosphere.
