Why would you want cloud storage for users in a business? Why would you want multifactor authentication for your users? Are you serious?

Microsoft 365 Business Basic gives you all this:

Plan highlights:
  • Identity and access management for up to 300 users 

  • Web and mobile versions3 of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook 

  • Custom business email (you@yourbusiness.com) 

  • Chat, call, and video conference with Microsoft Teams 

  • 1 TB of cloud storage per employee 

  • 10+ additional apps for your business needs (including Microsoft Bookings, Planner, and Forms) 

  • AI chat experience with web grounding, writing assistance, data analysis, and access to agents4

  • Automatic spam and malware filtering 

  • Anytime phone and web support

LibreOffice gives you ………. 1 of those bullet points lol. Not really a like for like replacement is it?

Not “basically” btw - entra is the azure/cloud version of AD. It was renamed.

This article clearly states that this non-profit switched to MS specifically because Google changed their non-profit plans to be paid.

Bit of context:

As such, it is generously removing the ten licenses for Microsoft 365 Business Premium that it previously granted to non-profits. The replacement? "We are transitioning to provide up to 300 licenses of Microsoft 365 Business Basic and discounts of up to 75 percent on many Microsoft 365 offers to nonprofits."

One could argue that 300 free licenses of Business basic is better than 10 free licenses of Business Premium, especially if the non-profit has more than 10 employees.

A business premium nonprofit license is $5.50 per user per month, so to get it back for those 10 users it would cost them $660.

Business basic was $1 per user per month with the previous non-profit discount.

This means that any non-profit with 55 employees would be no worse off now, but any with more than 55 employees will be better off with the updated plan and discounts.

What a strange thing to label someone who is regularly called a Nazi by the libs on here lol

Why do you think Apple should let Fortnite back on the App Store?

[–] FreedomAdvocate 1 points 1 year ago

GaMeRs aren’t going to do shit to Apple lol. Fortnite hasn’t been on iPhones for years and Apple hasn’t been hurt one bit.

If an app that is being used to coordinate a rebellion takes off the US government can……

lol

That’s how stuff works. Different people have different experiences. I had to get my pixel 3 replaced twice under warranty for a known screen issue. The pixel 7a, believe it is, is currently in the middle of a mass battery failure issue that really should end in a recall, where they’re refunding people often more than they even paid for the phone when it happens. Every flagship pixel up until the 5 had major hardware issues.

iPhones have, historically, been the best phones you could get in terms of being built to last, which is also why Apple have such long software support for them.

Not necessarily. iPhones used to be more than pretty much every Android flagship phone.
