Office 365 Group WriteBack - What is the use case?
Vasil's point is well made. If you want to use the extended functionality of Office 365 (Teams, Groups, and Planner), then move mailboxes to the cloud first. The experience for on-premises mailboxes will always be inferior to that enjoyed by cloud users.
- Jeremy HaganJul 22, 2018Copper ContributorInferior is a subjective term. Do you have a link to any documentation which outlines the limitations of the following use cases:
1: End users have on-prem Exchange with no Hybird
2: End users have Hybrid Exchange with on-prem mailboxes
3: End users have O365 mailboxes with Hybrid
4: Exchange is fully in cloud.
These vague assertions are a barrier to adoption. Customers want to know EXACTLY what their end user experience is going to be. Not just that it will be "better" if they migrate to the cloud.- TonyRedmondJul 23, 2018MVP
That's a question best addressed to Microsoft. I don't write their documentation. We do cover some issues in the chapter on hybrid recipients in the Office 365 for IT Pros ebook, but this is an evolving area and you should probably do your own testing with your own use cases to satisfy yourself as to the right choice for your organization. An example of recent evolution is the support for compliance records captured by Teams for hybrid recipients. https://www.petri.com/teams-compliance-records-hybrid-exchange
