Advice for small business IT on Office 365...

Hi there. As the [sole] IT person for a <25 user small business, I am looking for advice on whether to dive into an Office 365 premium subscription, complete with cloud access to office as well as exchange, OR to do office apps only and keep our email domain hosted with a 3rd party.

I feel like our current vendor is going to deliver us news that we must change up our service due to Microsoft's "unplugging" the current shared exchange service (this I heard from a sales person).

We currently pay 12/month per user including complete admin support and management of exchange as well as an anti-spam solution (Symantec).

Microsoft says office 365 premium (incl. Exchange) costs 12.50/per month for 1 yr/user.

I feel like the Office 365 Premium subscription offer doesn't include the same level of administrative support as either 3rd party email host.

I feel like our current vendor is going to soon-deliver us news that we must change up our service due to Microsoft's "unplugging" the current shared exchange service (this I heard from a sales person).

Add to this Comcast business offering office 365 solution for $14.95/month per user.

I would appreciate a few inputs so I might make an informed decision for our company.   Many thanks for your consideration!  :)
