Hi,<br />
<br />
There are two people who are interested in moving from SBS 2003 to Office 365. Only 2 people working at their current site and they are going to be working at home not their office anymore. One person will be working in different location so both will be working in different location but working together.<br />
<br />
What would be the best solution for this case?<br />
<br />
Office 365 would be the way to go? or have their small server in their home for centralizing their PCs and storage?

Hi,

There are two people who are interested in moving from SBS 2003 to Office 365. Only 2 people working at their current site and they are going to be working at home not their office anymore. One person will be working in different location so both will be working in different location but working together.

Office 365 would be the way to go? or have their small server in their home for centralizing their PCs and storage?

Small business moves from SBS 2003 to Office 365?

Office 365 is a group of software plus services subscriptions that provides productivity software and related services to its subscribers. Office 365 allows the use of Microsoft Office apps on Windows and OS X, provides storage space on Microsoft's cloud storage service OneDrive, and grants 60 Skype minutes per month. Office 365 includes e-mail and social networking services through hosted versions of Exchange Server, Skype for Business Server, SharePoint and Office Online, integration with Yammer, as well as access to the Office software. All of Office 365's components can be managed and configured through an online portal; users can be added manually, imported from a CSV file, or Office 365 can be set up for single sign-on with a local Active Directory using Active Directory Federation Services.

Microsoft 365

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).

Windows Server 2012 is the server version of Windows 8 and the successor to Windows Server 2008 R2. Windows Server 2012 is the first version of Windows Server to have no support for Itanium-based computers since Windows NT 4.0. Windows Server 2012, now in its second release (Windows Server 2012 Release 2) includes Foundation, Essentials, Standard and Datacenter, and does not support IA-32 or IA-64 processors.
