afik the exchange server integration is only available with the Ex plans, not the Px small business plans. you can't mix the plans within a domain and the per license cost of the Px plans is lower so it tends to be what businesses with les than 25 licenses are using.

right, you need enterprise to federate with ad to be able to extend your onsite exchange to *~the cloud~*, but you definitely can migrate from onsite exchange into any office 365 plan using native exchange poo poo (e.g. the way outlook connects to exchange, whatever the one that isnt activesync is). just make an account with full access to all the mailboxes on your on-prem exchange, and feed those details into the migration wizard and it goes off and does the rest.

while were on the subject of gently caress google, its easier to migrate away from google apps completely than it is to migrate between google apps accounts (e.g. a company merger between two google apps users). pretty much cant be done without losing a shitload of time and probably messages.

i dunno if its a recent feature or what but i just migrated 120 users onto a midsize business plan and it just worked.

it would be nice if there was a javascript powershell client or something in the portal instead of having to install a windows vm and loads of poo poo to get it to connect, but ill take it over having to explain to someone that no, i cant grant you access to one of your employees mailboxes while they are ill without doing a password reset and logging in as them because we bought shithouse google apps.

or that they have to pick between push email on their iphone or being able to flag messages. google apps looks very much like a project thats been abandoned because something a bit shinier came along and all the staff got bored.

yup. there is no exchange admin interface in the small business plans.

the instructions here don't work because this "Click Admin, and then click Exchange" doesn't exist in the P1 and P2 plans.

gooo microsoft. and yet it's still better than google apps for business by a country mile

backup storage cost several times more per gb than standard storage, because reasons.

if I had to guess, backup storage is reliable, standard storage isn't.

I think google has pricing plans for that kind of thing too, but they give you reliable by default and offer cheaper unreliable storage if you want to live dangerously

This does not work for Partners who have delegated Admin access for their clients. The old interface was easier, why is it hidden even from the Admin. Is there another hidden avenue for this for Partners who resell and support several clients?

no, stupid, the point is that when grandma says "my macbook air broke" you have to figure out which of nine possible macbooks air it actually is and grandma has literally no way of knowing which one it is

apple should just embrace what the apple spergs already do and start a year/model thing. the 2015 macbook air, available in regular size or with extended wheelbase.

if the only service option if it breaks is "take it to the apple store" what does it matter what year it came out?
