Microsoft Office 365. Since migrating from on-prem infrastructure to SaaS, we have seen tremendous productivity gains!

We have also partly migrated to O 365. Which license package are you using?

Hi Abhishek. We deployed E5 as we are a security company and needed both BYOK and Customer Key. We also use MCAS and all of the AIP (Azure Information Protection) capability in conjunction with our Zero Trust SDP infrastructure to provide for a robust trust engine.

Nice. We are currently using E3 and reviewing cost benefit of E5 over E3. We need some of E5 features but some of them are covered separately.

These days, definitely O365. We rolled out the whole suite during shelter-in-place, and it's become the place that everything happens.

I like this answer.  While most are thinking of the essentials to business operation, having a secure identity and access management service enables all those other things.
