Microsoft is about to make Office 365 even better for small and medium sized businesses
-
The new plans start at $5 and go up from there to remain competitive in the market and keep downward pressure on Google and its suite of productivity applications. The new plans will be offered from October 1, 2014 and onwards and will work for companies who have 1-250 employees.
Without a serious outage for over two weeks!

What does it offer though that 2010 (or heck even 2007) doesn't? 2010 is elephanting perfect as far as Office Suites go, and I have a license, and if I need to share documents with other people we have network drives, and dropbox. Completely sincere question, why would I want to start paying a monthly fee for 365? I see no benefit, for anybody with a 2010 license!

I subscribed to Office 365 because it was an overall more cost effective greenfields choice for me. I had no existing office license to use, so I needed to either buy a license ($200 or so) or go Office 365 ($15 or so). I also also wanted hosted mail, and I was originally going to go for Google Apps (because it was familiar) for $5 a month, but then needed a license for office. So I decided to go for Office 365 because I got Outlook as my online mail clients (its pretty nice) and desktop installations of Office as well. So I'm ahead for the first 2-3 years, at which point I would have likely upgraded again anyway. Also, I have found the animating UI elements in Office 2013 to be the big surprise feature for me. It sounds silly, but when you edit chart data in excel, or chart ranges, all the chart smoothly animates to the new state, giving some nice feedback on how things changed. Oh, SkyDrive for Business is just the worst. Never ever use it. Ever. And the way it integrates with the desktop applications - ugh. With a poor or missing network connection you sit staring at a busy cursor for 15 seconds.

Uh, a ribbon? No, wait 2010 had that. XML file... no. Uhm. Carp. You know, not a lot, and nothing I use or would notice really[^]
