If you bundle Exchange + CALs + Office Professional Plus, over a three-year version upgrade cycle, versus three years of Office 365, Office 365 costs about twice as much, last I checked.
And, since Microsoft supports it's software for ten years, you can skip one or two versions of Exchange/Office and still get security updates, and pay a quarter or a sixth of what it costs to go with Office 365.
- fomine3 6y agoFor comparing email service, cloud services are superior for spam reputation because they are big.
- ocdtrekkie 6y agoSure, but the problem with this is often overblown. If I was going to send mass mail, I might prefer to use an outside service like Sendgrid or Constant Contact to avoid that risk, but for general email, it isn't a big deal to operate your own on-premise server.
- sokoloff 6y agoI run my own email domain for my family. We have DKIM and SPF setup. We've been on a clean, constant IP for 5+ years. We still have deliverability problems that I don't have from O365 (work) or gmail. We probably have even more than we detect, because these are typically invisible until you can "discover the absence of a signal".
