Libre doesn't support IDM, nor provide email, nor MFA, nor CAM, nor MDM, nor storage.
M365 Business Premium is a LOT more than Office Documents.
Yeah that's fair, I've seen how Office business integrates with the OS and a bunch of network services, so I'm not surprised by that. Well, for those corporate environments I expect MS will continue to be the norm. But for small businesses and home use, Libra is really fantastic.
And honestly, for personal use I could do without all that email and calendar integration, good riddance.
Edit: Also storage? MFA? MDM? Why would you want that in an office suite? like maybe MDM is useful, but it doesn't belong in the office suite. And the rest of the acronyms I didn't even recognize... So I'm guessing they also don't really belong.
thy were talking about microsoft office. that provides neither of those
But this article and post are about M365 Business Premium licenses
Those factors help drive MS office adoption. It's a one stop shop. Many companies don't want to bother with their own servers, they'd rather just buy a service.
