Windows 10: 365 has crippled my business! Can't connect 2 laptops to server with 365 installed on them

I made the massive mistake installing 365 on my business systems.I cannot under any condition get them to connect.I have to access my CRM system and use webmail mail portal to manage my email as 365 refuses point blank to co operate with server 2019.Microsoft will offer me a 1am-6am call back which is as much use as a chocolate fire guard so I am dumped in community group to maybe try and find someone that understand this 1/2 baked piece of software designed to screw businesses over.I log into server set credentials, attempt to login and get kicked out reporting a problem with 365.Outlook does

Cortana & Office 365 Integration

We are trying to integrate Cortana with our Office 365 subscription, but it never works. Here are the steps we have done:

• Turned on Cortona in the Office 365 Admin portal
• We are using Windows 10 1703 – connected Office 365 service to Cortana

Did the same on windows 10 mobile with no luck, Cortana says its connected to Office 365, but sees no data and we are getting zero errors

We went rough office 365 support first and tried all fo their suggestions, they kicked us over to Windows support which is currently closed.

We are on v1703 with all updates in place, it does not work on Windows 10 desktop or mobile

any ideas? I can give you all steps 365 support had us run through if that will be helpful

Thank you

Doug

 

Microsoft 365 Business - enrolling Windows 10 devices

Hi everyone,

I'm the IT guy for a small business (<20 employees). We have subscription for Microsoft 365 Business and our users are on Windows 10 laptops. When preparing laptop for a new employee, I refer to this article: Set up Windows devices for Microsoft 365 Business Premium users - Microsoft 365 admin

My questions:

• When I enroll a Windows 10 laptop to Azure AD for a new employee, should I connect it using my own account or the new employee's account? Note: using the new employee's account means that I would have to create it, use it to enroll the laptop, change the
  password, then hand the account over to the new employee.
• I've been recommended to configure Azure AD users (i.e. employees) as non-Administrators on their laptops. Is it recommended to create a "local" administrator account on laptops for my troubleshooting purpose? Note: as the IT guy, I have Global Administrator
  role in Microsoft 365.
• When creating new application management policy for Windows 10, there is option for device type Personal or Company Owned. When enrolling a Windows 10 device, how does Microsoft 365 know that the device is personal or company-owned?

Thanks.

 

office 365 vs office 2013

Not really. Office 365 Home Premium is the equivalent to Office Professional. Office Professional is $390 and you can only install it on one PC. Office 365 is $99.99 a year and you can install it on up to 5 PCs. So even if you have just one PC, it would take almost 4 years for 365 to match the cost of the stand alone version. And if you have 2 PCs the cost for the stand alone version soars to $780, thats almost 8 years of paying for 365...
