Changing Aspects of Office 365
The initial focus
was to migrate
from Exchange
on-premises to
the cloud
Yammer and
enterprise social
networks became
the “big thing”
SharePoint
migrations began
in earnest
Skype for Business
Enterprise began
to replace
traditional PBX
The arrival of apps
like Teams creates
a new sense of
breaking from the
on-premises roots

before, so engineers can build new capabilities

Office 365 Performance against SLA since 2013
At current Office 365 scale, a 655 minute outage for 2m users reduces performance by 0.01%
• Microsoft has to
recognize a
problem to be an
outage
• Outages happen all
the time
• Most pass by
unnoticed by the
majority of tenants
• The distributed
nature of Office 365
helps to restrict the
effect of any outage

Progress in the Last Year
• Teams and StaffHub launched
• SharePoint modernized (somewhat)
• Groups and SharePoint embraced (to good effect)
• Groups became compliant and somewhat controlled by policy
• Security and Compliance Center became the fulcrum for cross-workload activity
in DLP, search, classification, and retention
• Office Graph and Microsoft Graph continued on the path to pervasion
• New Admin Center, reports, and Power BI content pack arrived
• Expanding archives, but apart from that, just tweaks to Exchange
• EOP improving
• Microsoft improved communication about changes and problems in the service

Teams
• The most fundamental change in Microsoft collaboration
technology since the launch of Outlook in 1997
• Reflects the way many people (but not all) work today
• Weak on email, search, and compliance but strong elsewhere…
• Fast-developing, extensible, self-updating, lots to like

Some missteps
• Lack of progress in Planner
• Slow progress to achieve true data governance across Office 365
• Important in Europe with the advent of GDPR
• That auto-created groups fiasco and a general rush to Groups
everywhere…
• The lost years of Yammer?
• Quality of some features when released (if you live in the world of
First Release)
• Cmdlet changes in the Azure AD PowerShell module

And Fault Lines
• Hybrid environments are still not as flawless as you’d like
• The constant pressure from Microsoft to use Office 365 Groups
• Distribution Groups are still the right choice in some situations; so are
shared mailboxes – and even public folders can do a job
• Confusing management UX across basic workloads
• But SharePoint is finally getting a modern Admin Center
• No PowerShell support for Teams and Planner; poor support in
SharePoint
• The lack of tenant to tenant migration/split tools

The Biggest Problem with Office 365?
If you give all your data to Office 365, can you really get it all out?
• Basic workloads yes, others – maybe?
• And locked and encrypted content?

Microsoft’s Motives
• Get on-premises customers to the cloud as quickly as
possible
• Upsell customers to higher priced plans (E5) and add-
ons (Azure Active Directory Premium)
• Beat Google and Facebook
• These goals influence actions taken by Microsoft and its
people (metrics drive behavior)

• IT Pros spend their time disabling Office 365 features Microsoft
enables by default
• IT Devs spend their time using Flow to combine Office 365 apps
together and don’t write any code
• Managers write the checks for monthly Office 365 subscriptions
