Custom/Vanity domain name/URL for Sharepoint Online
It's pity actually, an enterprise level service like Office 365 should facilitate these.
Even Google Suite has these simple features.

while that may be true, Office 365 has hundreds of features that are not available in GSuite and many corporations are leaving that platform because of them.

pKienner you only joined the community today and I would say that your first post above is rude. This is a friendly & helpful forum for so many people so be careful.

thanks for this "reminder. You are right, that was a little bit to rude.
Still, as you mentioned, this forum should be helpful, that's why my reaction on a response that says "you don't have this feature from the competition but others, that's why people are choosing Microsoft" really does not help in any way for the requested feature. So does the "this product is better" not help. This is off topic and does not help my company that would like to have the same config.
It just clutters the discussion (which I am also doing right now !!!). So I stop.
Not in my world. Small businesses that I manage on both platforms rarely have big "wish" items if they're on Google. Microsoft is just full of missing, ineffective, or poorly thought-out features that don't work for small business.
I think that this is related to the SSL certificate, and Microsoft can not issue a certificate for each domain.
R_Kovalev They should be able to... I use Zoho Helpdesk and added a vanity URL helpdesk.mydomain.com and setup some DNS records. Zoho automatically issued an SSL certificate and it started working after a few hours. It's not difficult at all these days.
- Yup, count me in those too! =)
You see, just a natural instinct that one doesn't want to lose any of the features in the current environment for an UPGRADE. Upgrade should be additional features, without losing any current ones. ;-)I would expect that allowing us to change the urls like that would cause all kinds of problems for many services such as Flow, Teams, Groups, legal holds, records management, e-discovery and more.
