Moving email to the "Cloud"

We do not have any Exchange Servers left at any of our clients. Too much labor and maintenance to keep them going.

One client uses Microsoft Office 365, then our remaining clients use Dimension Data.  Both vendors provide good service and excellent spam control which is the primary guard against ransomware.

We are also using Microsoft Office 365 which is a very good option.

Within the last year we have upgraded to office 2016 Standard with 75 licenses.  Does office 365 include an Outlook license or office license?  IS there an option to use our current license and save some money and get a little more payback on our investment of the 75 office licenses?

You need to pay a monthly fee per user for the service. That includes Outlook.  However your Office version includes everything else, so you can use your existing license and then pay the monthly fee. The offset to that is the reduction in in-house labour and maintenance.

>> Does office 365 include an Outlook license or office license?
You need to pay extra. Details I am not sure.

We also currently have shared calendars on exchange/outlook.  Will those carry over to Office 365 or should we consider a hosted exchange server solution?
